I thought I would send out my last years blog post on this Rememberence Day. In this awful year we should never forget the sacrifices made by so many over the last Century to maintain our freedom

About brianswatercolours

After spending 40 years in Aerospace I now enjoy painting watercolours of our travels around the world. I also paint for others who would like reminders of there favourite places. Most of my paintings are painted from photos that I have taken, or taken by others. This blog shows some paintings from Yvonne's and my travels together. Have look at my other Blog www.aquarellesdefrance.wordpress.com

    So true, Brian. My husband’s great uncle, John Horn, died at the Somme in 1916. We visited Vimy Ridge and other surrounding monuments in 2016 and it was very emotional to see the magnitude of the lives lost. We must never let their sacrifice be forgotten.
    Best Regards, Kathryn

    Hi Kathryn
    Hanks for your comment
    Our two visits to Ypres and other areas were very emotional and amazing too.
    My wife’s two uncles were both killed at Paschendaele
    . Very sobering
    Thanks
    Brian
