Not so much an headstone but a memorial which I found interesting walking around Walton on the Naze today I met up with a few old retired railway mates for a bit of grub and a few pints and see this.

Great great grandfathers younger brother. Killed in the last month of the war. The regiment was on its way out of the line when they fell in to reinforce another action at short notice loosing 6 men.

I must admit I like a good wander around a graveyard here is a couple of pictures I took of Sennen grave yard which is a mile or so before Lands End looking at the war memorial shows how the war was felt all over the UK and world, well worth stopping if your down that way a real feeling of calmness walking about.

Only seen it from a distance when my mate from London was buried in the same graveyard and that was of the legendary footballer Bobby Moore. And reading Didos first post i would also like to visit these places before it's too late. 

Why would it be too late? They aren't waking up anytime soon 🤣

What's the one called were Bobby Moore is buried mate. I can't for the life of me remember what they called it but i was impressed with how well it was kept but that was about 13 years ago. 

Gnasher will know that, I don’t know mate.

Sambo's grave up on Sunderland point near Lancaster left a mark on me for some reason. It's the site of a young slave who died there in the early 1700s.

Probably arrived in a fckin dinghy
