Thinking of my dear Dad on this eleventh day of the eleventh month.
Dad proudly served in the Second World War with the Hastings and Prince Edward Regiment, then the Stormon, Dundas and Glengarry Highlanders.
My uncle Gordon Brotherstone lies in a grave in France, a victim of the First World War.
My first husband is a veteran of Afghanistan. His father was a Naval Officer in World War Two.
My grandson T.S.L. is a serving member of the Canadian Armed Forces posted in New Brunswick.
Our family has it's fair share of military service.
and in other news:
The chimney has been cleaned, the new vent installed and the first fire has been lit in the wood burner
