    I take it you are all ready for the trip, unlike someone else who apparently hasn't yet packed? ;)

    Hi Mike,
    Thanks I am aware of this site, in fact I contacted them quite some time ago to contribute photos which they informed me they already had.

    I'm afraid they charge - or rather ask for a donation to cover costs (£3 for emailed, £5 for hard copies) - and as I want photos for my commemorative website it seems I would have to ask permission to use each one under the terms of their Copyright conditions.

    I am interested in all Foot guards regiments for my website - and for the Irish Guards alone there are 850 war graves that I would be interested in. It really would be beyond me to gather photos in this manner and I am totally reliant on the generous folks who contact me with photos of graves and memorials.

    Many thanks again,
    Diane
