Moved from the other place.

Don't post very much. Mainly middle aged man stuff - history (WW1 in particular), music, food and a small amount of football.

Glasgow - Scotland
Ypres Burger was always a staple/lifeline after a full days walking in the Salient. 😟

I'm yet to be convinced otherwise that the Merlin app isn't the greatest tool for improving MH. I regularly spend my pre-work morning in the garden with it running and delight at the recording of a new species.

Colour brings it out just a touch more.

Scottish Football seems to be the last bastion of non Nazi/Porn bot Twitter. Everyone else has moved over here to make it viable in other areas of interest.

Others with far greater knowledge of such matters will no doubt be able to confirm in an instant but I wondered about the Deccan Horse (9th) of the Indian Army in FWW.

Took this picture a couple of years ago for exactly the same reason!

So, this was my first tour and I thought the food worked well. Simple continental breakfast in hotel was included. Lunch was DIY either from Carrefour or a local café. With dinner, a group meal was available at a local restaurant but not compulsory. Most did though. All very relaxed & no pressure.

And on the 11th May I'll be at the Old Town Cemeteries at Stirling (Mars Wark).

As always, these tours are FREE and you just need to register on the link.

Hope to see some of you there.
