What are you doing this weekend?

[OwlHoot]

Mind you, Mrs. D was a good sport about my insisting that we watch The World at War box set every Sunday morning for 6 months, an episode at a time, plus all of the extra features, so maybe I'm getting my punishment?

That reminds me - I must listen to the CD I bought called "Voices from the Great War".

Was driving home one day a few months ago, and hearing an extract on Radio 4 I suddenly recognised one of the voices - My neighbour in Wimbledon back in the 60s, Lieutenant Montague (Monty) Cleeve, describing going over the top at the Battle of the Somme in 1916. So I ordered the CD on Amazon.

He was a nice old boy, thin as a whippet (which possibly explains why he survived - all he had to do was turn sideways like a playing card and the bullets would have zipped past him!).

[Bob Dalek]

Does that offer more depth than the UK History rolling WW2 coverage?

This is it.

Should be part of any school's curriculum. I'm 40, and, at school, was taught more about Sutton Hoo than about WW2!

All they ever taught me was 1066 and never look up when somebody shouts "Incoming"

You are lucky. Mrs. Dalek is a Strictly Come Dancing fiend. Why do women like such poo?

Would you be interested in a Mrs Dalek swap?

[BrilloPad]

Since there have been so many old threads resurrected this week - why not one more?
