As the poem by Canadian medical officer Lt Colonel John Mc Crae, In Flanders Fields, was read out I thought of the Canadian side of our family, particularly my parents who lived near McCrae’s home town of Guelph Ontario. But most of all I was struck how many in attendance were there just to remember the fallen, whether victims of the macabre dance of war or those who bore their torch, as the poem begs, and survived.

The bell has already struck a sound with me, perhaps because the lyrics tell the story about my son ringing in the new year on the church bells at St Peter's Church Langtoft East Yorkshire with my father! It was snowing, we'd been in the garden building a snowman and playing with sparklers! It was such a magical night!

my mind recently cast back to Sunday 15th October 1989 when John Stewart appeared with Hugh Moffatt as support at the Flying Picket in Liverpool-a gig which Geoff Davies promoted.

The Adsubian Gallery is one of our favourite galleries even though at the moment it is an item in our bucket list, that we have marked to visit before we die. I think it is perhaps because everything about the venue that we have learned about on-line and from their newsletters suggest they are a kindred spirit of the The Touchstones Arts and Heritage Centre, where I used to work as a facilitator with my Just Poets educational group.
