Many years ago I was given a box containing, amongst other items, a series of notebooks written by my Great Uncle Alfred of his time in the Trenches in the First War
I am currently transcribing them and then trying to cross reference them to people and places using records, trench-maps etc
I have only worked on the first book so far.... He leaves England late August 1915 and is soon in the trenches in Ypres
Would anyone who is interested in the Great War like to be sent a copy?
This year's Summer Bbq will be held last weekend in June, Saturday 28th and Sunday 29th June.... usual venue in the glorious Gloucestershire countryside, midday onwards. Please bring beverages and some food to pop on the grill
All welcome; as always it is a family orientated event so please bring partner/sprogs etc...but no pets plz.
Bring tent/campervan etc to stay over as the fun and festivities extend through into the night....strong coffee, bacon sandwiches and sympathy freely available on the Sunday morning
Hope to see you there, if the Good Lord spares us and the creeks don't rise.
In a rare fit of forward planning....

I hope you will be able to support this initiative by purchasing a copy of the new charity single
It is in aid of an ignored and marginalised group of people who, through no fault of their own, live at the end of a long strip of land like Portland Bill or even the Campbeltown peninsula in Scotland
Just visit your local record store and get your copy of " Do They Know It's Isthmus? "
