</p> I love it when it falls on my birthday. Going out with the lads with this on my t shirt -</p> They shall not grow old, as we who are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We shall remember them. </p>
It's the 8th of November - doesn't it fall on your birthday every year? And Remembrance day falls on the 11th every year! Did you see the Michael Palin programme last week about the number of men that died AFTER the armistice had been signed? Shocking!
Watched it on iplayer I can understand that in some areas they didn't receive the news. But the American general who wanted to take a town on the last day, so his men could have a bath?!? 300 dead or wounded. Crazy.
