Zeebrugge Memorial and casualties of the raid in Dover St. James’s Cemetery.

Quite exciting when you see your new book for the first time! Hurst Publishers

Well, I could hardly pass up the chance of a visit.

One of my favourite admirals at Charing Cross.

Another day, another trip to King's College Hospital in Town. This time, I'll be meeting endocrine surgeon Gabriele Galata to discuss my forthcoming op. As the event looms ever closer, I admit to feeling a certain amount of trepidation.

Julian Humphrys guidl Folk interested in Waterloo might also want to check out the volume of walking tours I produced for Pen and Sword some years ago, whilst there is also the free app on the battle that came out on both Apple and Android at about the same time: see 'Waterloo Education'.

A helpful station announcement at Farringdon: “The train now approaching is a Circle Line train via please stand back from the platform edge.”

The British Museum’s war memorial.

If anyone is free this afternoon and is thinking, yes, I would like to know more about Operation Peking, the sexual appeal of Polish servicemen, the Polish mafia operating the wartime BBC and the Poles' fight for red and white roses on their graves:

London and North Western Railway Memorial at Euston.

QT a picture of a younger you.

I’ve an appointment for an ECG at King’s College Hospital in London tomorrow afternoon. Looking forward to seeing this exhibition first, though.

Before leaving Arras, I paid my respects to Rosine and Bert Witton.

A wreath and some currant jam from the shop at 25 Rue de Longchamp, the Comet Line HQ where Rosine lived in 1943-4. She made currant jam with her airmen and left 33 jars behind when the Germans raided her house.

One of my Nurses chapel museum committee peers has put together this amazing resource in the chapel & it’s already been a hit as people come in to get the basics of their family member. The next committee project is WW2 nurses - a bit harder as not digitised #HistNursing

Inspired by #FWW Railway Wood on the Ypres Salient, my first wood engraving entitled 'Bellewaerde'. (Strictly limited edition of course!) Flanders Fields #WoodEngraving thanks to Keith Pettit for his patience & workshop classes 👍
