I’ve reorientated the business card and added a link to the website. I have also copied your post into a separate thread in the ‘Battlefields’ subsection of Travel.

the Lochnagar Crater is close to Thiepval too, worth a visit to anyone who hasn't heard the backstory, Amazing.
yes, thats on the list for day 1.
Any dates in mind for this Grant?
Not yet.. April next year probably,….will put something up towards the end of the year…plenty of time
looking at making some firmer plans for next year. This could be a good opener.
Dates proposed are 16-17-18-19April.
Happy to set this up but all hotel bookings are to be done individually.
Let me know who's up for it and we can start a thread.

Although if we meet its going to cost me, all the planning & recommendation beers I owe you !

No beers owed mate!
Just really happy I could help and the recommendations worked!
That's reward in itself and the beauty of sharing info on here!
You need someone with a German command vehicle from which operations and tactical manoeuvres can be controlled with laser like precision.Know anybody ?
My wife has a BMW and she’s very good at giving orders.
totally agreed....but then it has to be 2 wheels only..... and the one I was thinking of might not have that any more ......
or are you referring to a big 4 WD command vehicle.....
the usual twatology......

Bugger. I’ll be in New Orleans that weekend.
Bugger . I’ll be somewhere that weekend
Is this clashing with your proposed Eifel jaunt on the same dates?
Not really but good spot…
The Eifel trip idea got a couple of likes but no responses whereas the battlefields trip got some actual responses so i decided to plumb for the latter.
Eifel can go into hibernation and might post another few date options early next year if there is interest.
And besides dates can always be flexible but in this case, as I was advised in the past, better to put dates in as an anchor point

So maybe to make it all official I’ll start a listing:

I’d like to visit the battlefield sites. The last two years has seen me delve further into reading the worst of what humans can inflict on each other along with the best of bravery. A bit too early for me to know yet Grant but will keep an eye on the thread
lets leave it as it is. I have had a couple of DM´s as well stating its probably all a bit too early. I will bookmark it and revive it early 2027
