Hello boys & girls. You may or may not have noticed, but all your comments have disappeared! Actually, they haven’t disappeared, but it seems we have a slight glitch since the site was recently updated and the comments are failing to appear. I can still see them and will be able to see any new ones, but there’s no point in me currently replying as you won’t be able to see my response. So please bear with me while I sort it out. Otherwise, we continue as normal. I thank you.

Ahh the joys of modern technology. Good luck! 😉
I thought they had disappeared on previous post then thought well maybe it’s me. Hope you get it sorted, not the same when you can’t see the comments from others often prompting further thoughts, investigations etc.
That’s a fabulous piece of art and well deserving, thanks for posting.
Re Menen Cemetery. William Bullas, Machine Gunner and prisoner of war.
The 1st person to be buried in this Cemetery in 1916 and the first one on the far left of the row is my great Uncle William Bullas born Dudley but grew up and came from Chesterfield to join the Sherwood Foresters.
I am a Family History Researcher and never knew him . Through research I have lots of information about him and a photograph if you are interested for your website.
Please contact me by email.

Thank you Dena. Have mailed you. May be in your Spam if you can’t find it. Thanks!!
