Lord, help me dig into the past 

and sift the sands of time

that I might find the roots that made

 this family tree of mine

Lord, help me trace the ancient roads, 

on which our fathers trod, 

which led them through so many lands, 

to find our present sod. 

Lord help me find an ancient book 

or dusty manuscript, 

that's safely hidden now away, 

In some forgotten crypt. 

Lord, let it bridge the gap, 

that haunts my soul when I can't find, 

that missing link between some name, 

that ends the same as mine.

SHAME ON YOU!

I was appalled to hear that during the recent demonstrations some folk thought it acceptable to desecrate war memorials including trying to set the union jack alight on the Cenotaph in Whitehall London the memorial to all who have died in WWl & WWll,

statues were attacked one being pulled from its plinth and unceremoniously dumped in Bristol's floating harbour.

IMHO a dose of the cat is too lenient but I expect nothing will happen other than a short stay at her Majesty's pleasure.

I recommend 28 days in Colchester Military Prison.
