They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning,

We will remember them.

For the Fallen
Robert Laurence Binyon, 1914

    Thank you. That night at Leeds Town Hall still moves me. And we had we had a deep experience in the Field of Crosses this morning. Never enough gratitude.
