Hope everyone has a good day tomorrow at Salute. For our Antipidean cousins have a great Anzac Day!
I will be as usual up at the dawn cracking a 'Tinnie" remembering fallen heroes.
Regards Sean

My daughter and I were two of an estimated 20,000 at the National Dawn Service in Wellington. One of many dawn services in the Wellington area.

We were going to go down to the Dawn service in Dublin tomorrow but having to work has scuppered that. Watching the Service live from Melbourne via the wonders of the internet is a good substitute 
If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!
