VE Day 2020

Well, it's sad to say, but this planned celebration (for which a Bank Holiday was rearranged) won't be as planned.

But whatever you plan to do instead, enjoy it. Because for your today, they gave their tomorrow.



Normal blog service will resume tomorrow...

Yes MTG it now seems that it wasn't the Germans that did it all it was the Nazis.
Reading the modern propaganda you would think the Nazis were an alien race that decended onto poor old Germany from space and forced the people to wage world war on their friends and relatives.

Be careful. The keepers of that place where they keep all the aliens waiting for revivification have you in their sights. Remember that there were always many more nice Germans who were not Nazis. Nazis had this marvellous capacity to disappear/transmogrify.

Not many obese people in those days.Never mind morbidly or clinically

We'll see.

"Reading the modern propaganda you would think the Nazis were an alien race that decended onto poor old Germany from space..."

History no longer written by the winners!

"But don't mention National Socialism."

Perish the thought!
