D-Day - No work for a week!

Off to the Normandy Beaches for a few days. Whilst we're there we'll say a few quiet words of thanks for our Canadian and American fallen who joined us in liberating Europe.

Thanks for the video tour of Normandy, I had no idea it was such beautiful place.
Have good time, enjoy the vacation.

We went there about 6 years ago as a block event. You could tell those who had military experience and those who just saw it as an excuse for a piss-up.

Regards and pass on my thanks during your time.

Beautiful beaches with a bloody history. Say a word of thanks on our behalf.

Don't pick up anything shiny and metal unless you are absolutely sure it is a dud. One person a year is killed by unexploded artillery from WW1 and 2 in France - estimated to be 12 million unexploded shells in Verdun alone! We'd like you back in one piece!

What Constable Confused said above.

A touching place, buried in a beautiful area. Have fun, and hope to see the photos when you get back.
