Thank you!
One more charge and then be dumb,
            When the forts of Folly fall,
        May the victors when they come
            Find my body near the wall.

After three days marching in the pouring rain and gale force winds the lads have made it to the Ferry at Dover. They should now be on the last leg of their journey through Flanders Fields to Ypres...

There is still time to Sponsor Scrimnet and the Great War Society .. and thanks to all who have already done so...

Thanks for the update;  I've been wondering how they've managed with this awful weather.

HI Milly. :)

Thanks also for the up-date.

Is it being televised at all being such an important March.

I would image that "Son of Mine" is relishing in the conditions.

To all of them may they make good speed.

Nothing on TV so far as I know but there may be a piece in the local Kent Messenger paper. They are supposed to be sailing back today. I don't envy them a boat trip in this weather!
