The 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month

Following a little detour (Jane was not with us!), we arrived at the Alrewas National Memorial at 10:59am just as the place froze for the 2 minutes silence.



We walked through the visitor centre and out towards the memorial.



The place was packed and we had to queue to climb the steps.



Our 'poppy' carried the names of Jack, Wilfred & Marjorie.



The south facing walls are split to catch a shaft of sun on Remembrance Day.



The full set of photos is available on our website.
