I shall be speaking at a service on the foundation where I live at 10:45. Britain's entry into WW1 was announced at 23:00 on 4th August 1914.

A mark of respect for this most poignant of anniversaries. "At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
