firmly convinced the whole Button House unit was generally Aware of the particular vibes between their commanding officers but nobody could be arse to care about that frankly.

so maybe it is technically illegal, okay, but tonight is Cocktail Society night so that's actually more important at the moment.

And yeah they'll do their duty and eventually report them alright. just.. next week they're playing the RAF lads in cricket and they really do need both Havers' talent and the Captain as referee and, and also!! Nazi Germany is advancing so we honestly have bigger fish to fry here anyway

On this Remembrance Sunday, we honor those who gave everything for our freedoms. Their courage, sacrifice, and resilience remain woven into the fabric of our lives. Let’s not just remember but strive to be worthy of what they defended. Thank you for all who have served and still serving today our country is in your debt.

Today's veterans often come home to find that, although they're willing  to die for their country, they're not sure how to live for it.

Dedicated to my fellow veterans on this Armed Forces Week.

May you win the war you brought home with you.

Draft 1 - Her Eyes .

On a summer day in Birmingham, the entire alley was filled with the fragrance of blossoms, and laundry hung out to dry. People donned light summer attire, bakeries bustled with customers, and hair salons were crowded. Children played in the streets, and families joyfully welcomed their loved ones returning from the army. World War 1 loomed on the horizon, and there was an unsettling quiet before the impending storm. Recruitment advertisements for the army were scattered all around, compelling people to enlist.

Amidst the organized chaos, my friend V and I found ourselves unprepared for the sudden army recruitment. V was accepted into the army, while I failed to make the cut. Leaving our families behind, I was conscripted into the Tunnelers group, working tirelessly day and night to construct tunnels. Our mission was to tunnel to Somme, a process that took over 8 grueling months, all in preparation for placing mines.

As the war raged on and chaos engulfed the world, I received devastating news that V and his family, except for his 15-year-old daughter, had perished. The family had reportedly been on the run from the British Army for inadvertently sharing vital information with the enemy. I found myself responsible for V's daughter, K, the sole surviving family member.

Desperate to locate K, I scoured various locations without success. It was as if her existence had been erased, and my mind was filled with countless thoughts – "Had she been captured by the army?" "Did she relocate?" "Had something unfortunate befallen her?" Amidst the tumultuous events, the enemy relentlessly attacked, and my hope of finding her waned.

A year later, I rose to the rank of general in the British Army's Tunnel unit. With my newfound authority, I made every effort to locate the only family I had left, S. After several days, I received a lead suggesting that she had been sold to the Xing family, who operated a brothel. In the army, visiting such establishments was commonplace. I scoured these places, determined to find S, and after several months, I was certain that I had located her. Slowly gaining her trust by claiming to know her father and mother, I brought her to my home, where we embarked on a new life. I had regained my family, and in turn, she had found me.

Months later, as I sat reading in my room, S approached me in tears, her eyes conveying the sorrowful news of my impending demise.

Since its emergence as a symbol of Remembrance after the First World War, poppies have taken on various shapes and sizes.

From handmade silk and cotton poppies to wartime poppies, 2023 sees the biggest change in the poppy’s design for a generation.

Made entirely from paper, the new plastic-free poppy is available alongside stock of the existing poppy to reduce waste and can be recycled in ordinary paper recycling collections.

As we approach Remembrance Sunday, please wear a poppy to show the Armed Forces community you care and help us raise vital funds to support Serving personnel, veterans, and their families all year round.
