    Hi Rob, is that some sort of coincidence, you going there and Wellington3's post arriving?. Are you going specifically for that cemetary?

    Hi Mike

    I said that to another Forum member yesterday about the coincidence. Luckily I'm in Belgium and have that cemetery on a list of ones to photograph, which I did not complete last year.:)

    Regards - Rob.
