For additional evidence, I'm assuming these were badges from his school cadet corps uniform (he was at Haberdashers' Askes Hatcham, that being the family trade). I think there are certificates from that somewhere too.

Going through some family history stuff and found this. Can any #fww #GreatWar people confirm that this is a cap badge from the British Army's Training Reserve (active during the period of conscription 1916-1920)?

One for the #NavalHistory crew, ephemera found among a bunch of family history stuff, the back page of a theatre programme from 1937.

This is where ours used to be, now a congenial wildflower meadow and pond. It now operates from two hatches in Sainsburys. I suspect they have about the same turnover.

Post a perfect (whatever that means) album (broad interpretation accepted) from the 1990s that isn't by Nirvana. Nobody following me would post Pearl Jam anyway, I'm pretty sure.

A ship and a half. Can anybody say "pronounced tumble-home?" In Dutch?

There is a large graveyard filled with my enemies. i do not wish to add to it, but will given no choice. Those who pick fights with me do so at their own peril, but maybe this is their lucky day.

Saaremaa, an Estonian island. So nobody but trees to talk to, no hills without crossing multiple national borders, six months of freezing winter, about six weeks of mosquito-ridden summer, and the prospect of a future Special Military Operation. I guess there may be some downsides too, though.
