Yesterday would have been my late mother's 100th birthday, she was born at 11.00am on the 11th of Nov., 1918 and was subsequently named Joy Lorraine, the of significance "Joy" should need no explanation.
Every 11/11, I experience a great degree of sadness and respect for those who have served, regardless of how or where........during the National Service draft for Vietnam my birthday was not drawn, the days either side were, something for which in hindsight, I am now appreciative.
Lest We Forget.
