My plans for this morning got all muddled and so I unexpectedly found myself in Halifax at 10:30 this morning. And so I joined in on the #remembranceday parade for the first time. It’s a uniting experience however you absorb #11thnovember, whether watching @theroyalfamily at the Cenotaph on television, having a moment of silence in a shop or a cafe or even just privately at home. It just goes to show that we will remember them, even 100 years on. #lestweforget (at Halifax, West Yorkshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqCggqVB4Ir/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1cnfb7p2n084j

#316 #366photochallenge . After just scraping in just before midnight with my daily photos yesterday because I very nearly, almost, luckily not quite, forgot to make the post yesterday - I thought I’d post in good time today! . So here is today’s selection - . Photo 1 - policemen on mountain bikes cycling along the towpath. . Photo 2 - View from my window today includes a man standing on a very flimsy-looking blue roof opposite. The tatty blue tarpaulin has been up there since before the first lockdown in March. It’s not the most rural of views, but would be nicer without the tatty tarp! I’ll post the after pic tomorrow!! I know you’ll all be desperate to see!! 🤣 #littlethingsinlockdown . Photo 3 - the lake and swans today . . Photo 4 - we were on our walk at the 2 minute silence time so we just stopped en route and maintained the silence there. This was our view. Floss was very quiet and still too. She’s a good dog. I’m not sure how many people still hold the silence on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, but we do. . . . . . #wewillrememberthem #11thhour11thday11thmonth #11thnovember #11thhour #weddingphotographerlondon #smallerweddingsphotographer #smallerwedding #366 #onephotoeveryday #366photochallenge2020 #onephotoperday #productphotographer #headshotphotographerlondon #businessbrandingphotographer #businessbrand #hertfordshirephotographer #londonphotographers #weddingphotographerlondon #Londonphotographer #headshotsLondon #productphotographer #specialistbrandphotographer #businessbrandphotographer #hertfordshirephotographer #brandphotographer #businessphotographer (at Josephine Gray Photography) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHc2-AxBUDS/?igshid=87xfgw7ocsf6

À l'occasion des 100 ans de l'armistice à Mons. Le Canada était a l'honneur 😊 Quoi de plus logique d'associer leur drapeau avec le symbole folklorique de Mons. #mons #doudou #dragon #canada #canadian #flag #drapeau #folklore #armistice #11novembre #11thnovember #benmartch (à Mons, Belgium) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvcP-PMnDyg/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1u9qr6qkz6wp

David (Davy) Blair was born on 11thNovember 1874 at Broughty Ferry.
Another post with very little detail, well nothing really on Mr Blair’s life before the events that would forever give him his place in history.
Blair was an employee of the White Star Line and had been originally earmarked to sail on The Titanic on it’s maiden voyage to New York, indeed he was second officer on the ship during its trial voyages to test the ship’s seaworthiness and the final journey from its place of construction in Belfast to Southampton, but was told at the 11th hour he wasn’t going.
Bosses at White Star Line decided Henry Wilde, the experienced chief officer of the Titanic’s sister ship the Olympic, should be transferred instead.
As a result everybody was moved down a rank but Mr Blair was deemed too senior to take up the position of third officer and was tasked to another ship. He wrote on a postcard home at the time
‘Am afraid I shall have to step out to make room for chief officer of the Olympic. This is a magnificent ship, I feel very disappointed I am not to make her first voyage.’
Blair having a lucky escape is not the end of the story though, which is only one of many lucky escapes of people who sailed on the doomed liner, it is a much more tragic tale.
In his haste, the story goes, he forgot to hand over the key to his replacement so the lookouts were left without the use of binoculars.
One lookout, Fred Fleet, who survived the sinking, told the official inquiry that if they had had binoculars they would have seen the iceberg sooner. When asked how much sooner, Fleet replied: “Enough to get out of the way.”
According to legal expert Gary Slapper, though, Blair’s “forgetfulness wasn’t a material reason for the disaster” as there were other causes and in Blair’s defence it was said 'Blair would have been rushing about tidying up his loose ends before then. In his rush it slipped his mind to hand over the key so the fate of the Titanic was in his hands in a round-about way.
'But in terms of blame then you have to look at the captain, EJ Smith. The ship was going too fast in an ice field which he had warnings about. 'There was a pair of binoculars on the bridge and a pair for the crows nest because Blair had them just days before.
'But the failure to provide the lookouts with them could have been down to not knowing where they were. He would have found them had he been able to open the locker. So in the end all the lookouts had were their own eyes.’
To me I find it incredulous that there would only be one pair of binoculars on the ship. ,ost films I have seen there is someone looking out from the bridge of a ship holding a pair, but anyway....
Blair kept the Titanic key to the box as a memento and eventually passed it on to his daughter Nancy. The key and postcard were sold at auction in 2007, fetching £90,000 and £17,000 respectively.
Davy Blair later served on RMS Oceanic when it ran aground in 1914. As the navigator, Blair received the blame for the grounding at the resulting enquiry, he died on 10th January 1955 in Hendon, Middlesex.

Lest we forget Hedd Wyn Ellis H.Evans Born: Trawsfynydd, Wales Died: The Great War , The war to end all wars, WW1 1887-1917 Winner of 3 Eisteddfod chairs 1915, 1916 and the 1917, 6 week after his death. Lest we forget all those who gave their lives Lest we forget all of the civilians and armed forces Lest we forget all of the animals that died Their is a dialogue in M*A*S*H 4077th (Korean war ) that really says it all . War isn't hell Hawkeye: War isn’t Hell. War is war, and Hell is Hell. And of the two, war is a lot worse. Father Mulcahy: How do you figure that, Hawkeye? Hawkeye: Easy, Father. Tell me, who goes to Hell? Father Mulcahy: Sinners, I believe. Hawkeye: Exactly. There are no innocent bystanders in Hell. War is chock full of them — little kids, cripples, old ladies. In fact, except for some of the brass, almost everybody involved is an innocent bystander. #poppies #poppy #lestweforget #wewillneverforget #allies #enemy #ww1 #ww2 #ww #war #peace #mash #mash4077 #4077 #remember #remeberance #111118#11.11.18 #1111 #11.11 #11thNovember #11thNov #welsh #welshpoet #theblackchair #ygadairddu #trawsfynydd #wallaseybeach #wartoendallwars #Heddwyn #poetry #wales #cymru #cymraeg #innocent #civillian #armedforces #nevergrowup #nevergrowold (at Europe) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqDOLqQgtvd/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ljvbqjcxqexz
