Probably the area with the most photographed headstones in the world, but you never know... I'm heading out there next week, so if anyone has any requests, let me know. Tim

Tim, Don't worry. I am not extracting the urine. I have included my complete list of names and places in Normandy because I don't know where exactly you are planning to visit. If there are any on my list who are at Cemeteries you plan to visit I would appreciate it if you could oblige me with photos if the individuals headstones. Whether you take 1, or all of them, I will appreciate it just the same. HOULGATE (BEUZEVAL) COMMUNAL CEMETERY Sergeant Wilcockson Robert William Plot 10. Grave 4. Thanks Tim Tony ONLY THE RED ONES TO GET NOW!!!! WOO TO THE HOO!
Morning I have these in Ranville Cemetery if you get a chance, (in block order) Ronald Clifford CRADDOCK Grave 1A.J.1 Leonard DEVILLE Grave I.E.15 James MORTIBOY Grave I.F.23 William Alfred Albert DERRY Grave IIIA.D.4 Wallace DOWEN Grave IV.E.3 Ernest Graham PITCOCK Grave VIII.B.3 As Tony says above, any would be a bonus, Many thanks, Graeme
Tim I have a fair few and would prefer to know which cemeteries you are planning to visit rather than post all my 'wants' (as it would probably take about 4/5 pages!) Regards Andy
4-5 pages? Thats just being greedy. Just give him your Ranville list, Andy, and then sit back and watch Tim cry lol
Tim Would appreciate a photo of the following if at all possible SLEEP William Arthur Ernest Sgt BANNEVILLE-LA-CAMPAGNE Grave II D 19
GUNNER Blackburn at La Deliverande. I'm sure you have had this from me previously. Here on WW2Talk. http://ww2talk.com/forums/topic/16847-royal-artilleryroyal-horse-artillery-roll-of-honour-1939-47/page-102#entry410157
Hi all, didn't expect this much requests, but no problem. The cemeteries I already planned to visit for me personal are: -Ranville -St. Manvieu -Douvres-la-Delivrande -Banneville-la-Campagne -Cambes-en-Plaine -Bayeux Anything other than those will depend on how much time I have left. We will be staying in the Pegasus Bridge area for most of the time. @Tony: I think I can get most part of your list done, looks like most are in the same area. @Andy: I've photographed about 10.000 headstones in Belgium and Holland these past few years, so I'm quite used to large numbers... If you want you can send me your list and we'll see what can be done. Tim
Yes yes OK you dont need to keep going on about it Rob lol. I have FINALLY deleted him from my list on my PC and also the list on here. If you ever see his name again on any of my lists you have my express permission to come and delete it yourself! Now dont pick on me again or I shall have to set the boys on you. Tony
If this is the way you react when someone is helping you to collect your photos, then you sure as hell won't get any more from me old Son. As to setting the Boys on me? What are you 12?
Rob, my apologies. You seem to have not seen it as a joke, which is exactly what it was meant to be. I do appreciate the fact that you you and others have helped me enormously over the past couple of years, and I have done my bit to help others too.

Hello everyone Just back from a week in Normandy. I've tried to get as much photographs as time would allow. Unfortunately not everything is done. It was a tiring but rewarding week with just not enough daylight in one day... I will contact everyone who made his request this week via PM. Tim
Thanks Tim......well thats a little presumptious of me as you might not have taken any of mine. Hope it was a very rewarding trip. Which Cemetery were you at on the 6th? I bet it was fantastic being in the area last week. Regards Tony
Owkay... Looks like everyone who requested something has either been emailed of has received a PM from me. If I missed someone, let me know. @ Tony On the 6th we always go to the Ranville cemetery in the morning and we follow the coup de main party to Escoville and Herouvillette in the afternoon. Always great to be there on the 6th, special kind of atmosphere there then.. The tiresome part of our week usually starts around the 4th at Putot-en-Auge and ends a few days later somewhere in the American sector. Looking forward to next year already! Tim
A very public thanks to Tim who unbelievably took nearly all of my list from above. Just need to check if you have a photo of Private Ernest Boon - Joint grave V. F. 7-8. at Ranville. That is the only photo missing from the completed Cemeteries that you have emailed me with. Regards Tony
Thank you very much Tim for getting my photo requests it is really appreciated cheers. Regards Michael.
Morning Tim many, many thanks for the pics you took for me at Ranville, really appreciate it. Hope it did not impinge on your holiday too much, Cheers again, Graeme
