Welcome

Welcome to our World War One blog ...

Over the next few years we hope to share items of WW1 history with you all, discovered since 1997 from our many visits to; France, Belgium, Germany and around the UK. We will also share any new discoveries we make.  

To start you off, we thought we would share web links to the WW1 commemorations websites hosted by the BBC and Commonwealth War Graves Commission.  
It was tonight exactly 100 years ago, when Britain issued an ultimatum to Germany, asking her to withdraw from Belgium soil by 11 pm on August 3, 1914.  

She did not and The Great War, as it became known, began.
