I've only had the TAB for three weeks so haven't really got into ereading. I have subscribed to two modelling mags though. It means less clutter around the house, you can carry loads but they only take up the space of the TAB. I have got some free Kindle and Kobo books to try to get into too. |

It's a little crazy, but the grounds keepers will show you the head stone where he (and his crew I believe) rest! But, I don't know if you have ever visited a German Cemetery before mate, they are totally different to Common Wealth ones, eerie and stark, especially La Cambe. For a week, some 8 years ago, we stayed in a self catering place 1 mile from Villiers Bocage. I had my "Panzers in Normandy Then & Now", so was able to walk up and down the main road taking photos and boring the wife with "And a Cromwell was knocked out here...." |

Never been to a German cemetery. And I have the Daniel Taylor book on the Villers Bocage battle. So will take it with me, once I get a passport. I would also like to visit La Gleise and Bastogne. |

When I went to St Mere Eglise there was a shop there where you could buy de-commissioned MG-42's! I've managed to get to Normandy 4 times and Ypres twice. When we asked the kids where they would like to go on holiday this year, I was bowled over when the response was "Normandy" "Ypres".
