Dave at kelton Posted June 10, 2023 Report Share Posted June 10, 2023 Thought I would post something positive for a change. Was at our village school for the head teachers retirement. Only 28 children but great scores in tests. Anyway, I was heartened to see this on the balcony of the wee hall. We encourage the school to lay a wreath at the memorial each year and a child lights the beacon on the end of the Quay at Sunset on Remembrance Sunday. I have no worries that this village generation will grow up not knowing the price paid for their freedom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bottletopbill Posted June 12, 2023 Report Share Posted June 12, 2023 (edited) wow TOTAL respect as we seem to be covering up our history to please foreign nationals. Yes some mistakes have been made over thousands of years but many men and women have given there lives so we may have our freedom. My grandad died in the second world war and others have died since then . Can we truly say we have given back to those that have served our country and are homeless and need help with mental health. Thank god we have schools and people who respect our services.👍 Edited June 12, 2023 by bottletopbill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
