I’m actually struggling to write a post today. It should be easy because it’s Remembrance Sunday and I’ve already written about Hallowe’en and Guy Fawkes. But I don’t have anything personal to bring to the commemorations. One of my uncles and a great uncle served in the Second World war, and I have a few photos of them in uniform. But they never talked about it. Not to me anyway.

It doesn’t seem appropriate to write a funny post, or feature some baking or crafting. So I’ll just leave you with these pictures I took on the 8th November 2018, I don’t have any taken on the 8th November last or other years.

They were taken in Archivist’s Garden at Register House in Edinburgh. I’d visited a really interesting exhibition “For you the war is over” documenting the experiences of Scottish POWs in the First World War. There’s also one photo from the exhibition itself.

Until tomorrow
