Scrimmers has returned!!

Soaking wet kit, blisters (our boots never had a chance to dry out!!) and a stress fracture...But all worth it to raise money and then at the end, to march through the Menin Gate in full WW1 Northamptons kit...I took off my RAMC for the last bit into Ypres...

Thank you so much to all whom have donated, and if you havent...there is time yet

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.
