Being half German… it’s one of the biggest thinks to go have influenced how I feel about our place in history and in Europe … my grandaftajer were fighting each other in WW2… my German Gran was born in 1913… one of 11children. She had two older brother who she never knew as they both ‘fell’ in 1916… her two younger brothers were both killed on the Russian front in 1944… her husband was capture by the Americans near Amiens and got home in '47…

I have just pissed myself

You ain’t dragged anything down… it’s always good to remember the sacrifices that were made that mean we can enjoy the freedoms we have today… even if in WW1 it was so futile

I have heeded the siren summons of a fresh bottle of Fever Tree Mediterranean tonic water, calling me from the fridge. I must admit that I find tonic water rather too strong for my taste; fortunately I also have a nice new bottle of Tanqueray with which to dilute it. Chin chin!
