If any MP doesn’t attend Parliament, vote or do surgeries for a set period, without a good reason such as illness or maternity, then then it should automatically trigger a by-election. Retweet if you agree.

I’m photographing a whole load of glossy monochrome photos in a weeks’ time. Has to be with a hand held phone camera, no flash. Any hints on avoiding shine from the photos caused by overhead lights?

Thanks to Gosport D-Day Fellowship for hosting my talk on D-Day Logistics last night at the old D-Day Control Centre, now Stoke Bay Sailing Club. Good crowd, interesting questions. No missions without Logisticians!

Another fantastic night with Chris BB ChrisBB explaining the logistics of D-Day. Chris has spoken for us twice in the past 3 weeks at two different New Forest venues, and we've had 200 people in total come to see him. There's a reason why, go see him if you haven't :-)

Great to meet up with Merryn at TNA yesterday and share a genuine BOGUS map (if that's not too confusing). Used 80 years ago so troops could see real terrain but not know where it was.

On Thu (5th Dec), at 19.00Z I'm talking on Paul Woodadge's WW2TV channel which can be found at youtube.com/watch?v=JZkXqV… (if all the technological DUKWs are in a row). The video should also be available for those whose time zones or busy lives mean they can't watch live.
