Remembrance Sunday

Each year at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, we observe a Two Minute Silence. Armistice Day on 11 November marks the end of the First World War and is a day to remember and honour those who have paid the price for our freedom.

I usually make the effort to be here every year. This year was the first with my Daughter. I want her to know what our servicemen and women have sacrificed to give her the freedoms to lead her life as she wants.

I’ll let the images tell the story today.

“They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old, Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun, and in the morning We will remember them.”
