Paul we knew something was going on when loads of folks arrived to sit on the grass verge and they even held the ferry out in the approach to dock while the display went on and yeah it was amazing.... Jealous!

Possibly due to this?What was the occasion Gordon?
What an interesting read. I had heard of the Dieppe Raid but really knew nothing about it. The more I learn about some of the “operations” in both world wars the more I realise how many folk gave up their lives apparently needlessly. So many of the battles were catastrophic with no or little meaningful advantage to either side. With the motorhome we have done the sites of the Somme (what a truly humbling experience) and the D-day landings. The more I learn the more I realise what errors in planning and preparation were made, even in those operations claimed aa “successful”.Possibly due to this?

Ditto on the fireworks for animals we always had to give our mika metacalm she hated fireworksI always try to avoid fireworks when I can these days as dogs are petrified by them, glad I wasn’t there but also glad you got a good display
