I always take a walk around the graveyard after we have taken a coffin into church. Invariably there will be a war grave amongst the dozens of other graves. Lads in their teens who have given their lives for this Country. I watched the Remembrance Parade which always saddens me but I also have a touch of anger for all the needless loss of life. Politics and religion are usually at the root of all conflict and today, the 21st Century, we still have not learned any lessons. Whilst the Government officials are wrapped up warm and safe in their guarded mansions our lads are being murdered in foreign lands? How much longer will they, we, let it go on for. Remember them.
