Am back.

Have photos of requests for Tyne Cot and will sort them out tomorrow and send to peeps.

Brilliant trip by the way - learnt an awful lot as the tour guide was excellent. We visited several cemetries but as I didn't know beforehand that we would be visiting those I couldn't offer to take pics so I'm sorry about that.

I'll be signing off again soon to go and get a bit (should be a LOT) of beauty sleep.

Will check in tomorrow about 10am.

Can peeps please keep nudged for our down-under researchers?

Cheers

No worries Mummy Bear. Fingers crossed they are not too high up as can be tricky getting a decent shot.

I'm signing off for a while now - can people please keep this nudged up for me?

Many thanks

We should be able to find him Smurf. Found someone on the panel last time we went. To be quite honest it's good to have someone to look for as it's a very sad place. Very lovely place, but very sad.

I'm visiting Tyne Cot Cemetry this week - we're doing one of those battlefields tours. I'm therefore able to take photos of gravestones.

If you want a photo please let me know name of soldier, plus site of grave - for newbies this can be found on the Commonwealth War Graves Commission site (google CWGC).

Can people please keep this thread nudged today if I'm not around - will pick up later plus will check in tomorrow morning before we leave.

Jill

EDIT: Monday morning all packed and ready for the off. See you all on Saturday.
