Very humbling. Whilst walking through the shopping area of Zaandam, Holland I came across these โ€œStolpersteineโ€, or โ€œstumbling stonesโ€, there are now more than 70,000 such memorial blocks laid in more than 1,200 cities and towns. bit.ly/2BGxVrg

Tyne Cot was wonderful yesterday in the setting sun. My group was the only group there and with no rain all day it was wonderful to be out and about in 2023. โ€“ at Ypres, Belgium

Went to see the @cwgc plot in Chippenham, London Road Cemetery today. They rest in peace below a layer of crisp snow in the winter sunshine. @dgcwgc @HelenSm88920251 @janeylaw @ElizbethjmSmith โ€“ at Chippenham, England

Talbot House, a fantastic addition to any educational tour. Well worth the visit and the tea is fantastic. โ€“ at Quaรซdypre, France
Great to catch up with Simon Louagie @TalbotHousTubby as he briefs my group and Duchess waits patiently until heโ€™s finished (sheโ€™s heard it hundreds of times before). Also good to catch up with @FlandersBTour after we passed on the stairs.

Here's an advance picture of the AJEX plot at the Field of Remembrance ahead of the opening ceremony tomorrow. Thank you to all the people who have given us names for the poppy markers. It is a very special sight to see. We will Remember.

Teachers we are happy to discuss how we can make a visit to the battlefields personal to your school needs as well as exploring the big picture of the war, itโ€™s impact, legacy and Remembrance. And bring all the different contributors stories to life. #historyteacher #edutwitter

Guides on holiday?
A quick stop en-route for a โ€˜Memsahib Breakโ€™ @GreatWarHuts to see the magnificent Brook Farm Camp. Good to see @Taff_Gillingham @HorrorBiscuits & @SteveJChambers (before his Gallipoli talk). Special thanks to Kieran for his enthusiastic guiding, much appreciated. Fantastic.

It was a great honour to speak at the โฆ@LondonFusiliersโฉ yesterday evening for the centenary of the British Jewry Book of Honour on behalf of โฆ@AJEX_UKโฉ and โฆ@jewsfwwโฉ. After years of research I feel I know the 1000 page book like an old friend.

Ooh - more excitement watching Paula talk knowledgeably about a subject she knows a lot about. Do have a look, it will be worth it.
