just a quick update folks...the postal plaque has now been collected from me by the royal mail...they hope to have it in place at the national memorial arburetum in alrewas in about 3 weeks time with a nice wooden plaque to go alongside saying where the men came from...next step after that will be a rededication service with hopefully a couple of men dressed in ww1 uniform also the last post will be played..really pleased that all this can be acheived well in time for the centenary of the great war...i am well pleased
