BBC Battle of Britain Film Showing

Watching the BBC setting up procedure was almost as interesting as the film itself, until we heard from Mahinder Singh Pujji that is. To listen to the personal reflections of a Battle of Britain pilot was humbling, especially as he seemed confused about our reaction to his statement about never having been afraid.

All Souls fund raiser for Guide Dogs for the Blind

As always at these events, I learn something about a charity that I didn't know before. Apparently it costs £49,000 to breed and train a Guide Dog for the Blind and cover all the costs throughout their life. I had no idea that the charity covers all food, care and medical costs for the dogs, so no wonder they depend on charitable giving.

VJ Day Service at the Garden of Remembrance

65th anniversary of the end of fighting in WW2 is an event that deserves a dignified celebration. Various dignitaries gathered at the Garden of Remembrance to pay tribute to those who fought and died but also to acknowledge the moment when the conflict officially ceased. Wreaths were laid at the Burma Star Memorial and a two minute silence gave everyone the opportunity to reflect on what this occasion means to them.
