Remembering

It feels so strange not to be going to a Remembrance Service this year. I can't think when I first started attending, but it was probably about 25 years ago when the eldest son was in Beavers or Cubs. Over the years, we've been to services in a variety of venues, including in the Baxter Gate Baptist Chapel, the United Reformed Church on Frederick Street, in Queen's Park at the foot of the carillon, and in Hathern Church. There may well have been others!

Today, on Remembrance Sunday, I'm going to look back through my photographs of previous year's events, and maybe see if I can find some photos from some of those services 20-25 years ago. 

And in an unexpected turn of events, I'm able to share with you some pictures from today's ceremony, in Queen's Park. Sadly, the quality is not brilliant, but at least you can see what happened. I should also say that the Carillon was played during the laying of the wreaths. The photos are shared here in the order in which they happened, and you will find them at the bottom of this post.
