popping over to Ypres 24TH back on the 25TH if anyone fancies a ride ferry crossing is £43 return will be camping :bounce1
 
Go to the Menin gate the ceremony is moving. 8 pm every night.

Tyne Cott cemetery is worth a look too
 
Set aside at least 2 hours to visit the IN FLANDERS FIELD MUSEUM in the town centre , very informative and thought provoking

Not that bad!

Oh and get into the "Hopperie" for a beer, or six. Tom speaks good English and has an awesome collection of falling down juices available.
 
My experience of the museum was a bit eerie, we were halfway round and decided to go up to the top of the tower and was standing there quietly contemplating the experience when my phone rings.

On answering I am informed by my wife that my next door neighbour died the day before from cancer (which they thought was in remission ) and also that my wifes 49 yrs old cousin who lives in a cottage 50 yards away died overnight
