Having made a point of being technically inept at uploading photos and webby things of all kinds I have finally taken the plunge and decided to have a go.
In 09 I hooked up with the BMW Tour of WW1 sites and thus enjoyed being guided and having a good guide in the person of Martin Pegler (honourable mentions elswhere on this site, including his B&B).
In no particular order here are some things which for me where significant, and indeed may not necessarily be seen elswhere.
Here is the official South African WW1 memorial in Delville Wood
The interior facing the courtyard is all engraved glass - I wish that I had taken more but I wasn`t sure that it would work, it just looked fuzzy on the camera screen
The Ulster Tower, which commemorates the losses of the Faughs. Interestingly enough many men from the Guernsey Militia enlisted and were assigned to this Company and saw service here in 1916.
