Remembering my Grandad Frank - front right - who fought in WW1 at age just 17 as you can see in his young face here. He lived to the age of 90 and never wore his medals, never wanted to speak about what he saw (at least two of his friends killed) and truly hated all talk of war.

On this day 30 years ago, Blur beat Oasis and reached number one in the Battle of Britpop. I bought Country House. But there was another Britpop...
