ABC Wednesday: "R" is for Remember XI XI XI


This is the Greenfield War Memorial (1000 ft) at the Pots and Pans stone landmarks above Oldham.

Remembering all the innocent people and animals whose lives have been ruined by war mongers, arms traders and those politicians who broker arms deals to countries such as Saudi Arabia etc. 

ABC Wednesday reaches "R".

  3. The sad thing is that it still goes on and will do always. As much as people say we learn from past mistakes.. we really don't :(

  4. Whether one thinks war is "necessary", it's always hell.

  5. Spent my morning "remembering" at our village's ceremony at the cenotaph. It was a glorious sunny day and when the planes did their fly-past, it was wonderful looking upwards.

  6. I spent yesterday in quiet reflection thinking of all those who have lost their lives in futile wars.
    I still remember clearly my Grama's tears for her lost son Jack, he was just 20 years of age,
    That's quite a remarkable monument, it certainly would make one step back and think!
