I know this is pretty irrelevant to the thread Title
But my eldest son due to probably boredom during coronavirus has started to work out the family tree
And managed to find my grandfather's service record
Joined the Royal navy 1911 and was invalided out 1920
It gave a list of all the ships he was on
And he was at the Battle of jutland
Which I believe was one of the biggest naval battles ever
Its quite amazing what you can find out now days about the bravery are loved ones didn't want to talk about

A lovely air hostess I work with was given the job of buying decorations etc to honour tomorrow, hang them about the place as a fly past here at 1-45 and fair play she's done a lovely job ....one slight error. She's hung a few model airplanes from the ceilings and have just removed this one from reception.  We're not honouring the bombing of Pearl Harbour to my knowledge  |
