Brilliant -thank you for your research and excellent video. Loved to learn about the three 1st World War Soldiers who returned especially to keep the tradition going.

@sharonholford I didn't I'm afraid. I came first thing and stayed until the hall, but then I had to get back.
Next year I'm going to come and do the other half 🤣

[@sharonholford]

​@TheRedHairedStokie yes you definitely must!
