Hi Paula.

             How about this for a memorial. Taken by my father in 1942.

Malcolm, I must make sure my husband sees that. His father died in the war, drowned as a prisoner of war on a transport ship. He is going round all the places where his father had been and taking loads of photos. Not everyone can do this, so I put some of his pictures on the board just in case they would like to see them.
