    Today we remember those who have lost their life while fighting in combat to protect our freedoms. 

    We owe our way of live to those brave, amazing people.

    I hope you'll all join me for two minutes of silence at 11am.

    'For those who leave never to return, For those who return but are never the same, We remember'. 

    'They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old,
    Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn,
    At the going down of the sun and in the morning, 
    We will remember them'
     
    Thank you.

    The words, 'They are not old, as we that are left grow old.....' are so simple, & yet so much conveyed in those few words.
    I thought today's service at the Cenotaph was also most poignant, yet simple. Yes, the veterans were missed, but we got to hear a few of them reminisce around the country, thankfully. The impact of the service was, I felt, nonetheless still powerful for all it's simplicity. The few who were there were also representing so many.
