I was OK during the BBC coverage until the choir sang 'abide with me'
. Such good luck that the sun arrived during the morning. We have stood there looking at the piece of railway transported from Burma, wondering whether our relative touched it. I suspect that we all feel that. I think that C-19, by making it necessary to distance, allowed people to have their own memories and thoughts without being overlooked.
I won't watch Joanna Lumley's programme at 8.30 p.m. as we will be 'fairporting' on U-Tube so hope to be able to catch that tomorrow. I have Dad's photo and our medal on the windowsill and have hung the Union Jack on the back of our garden, hopefully the correct way up
