When I was on the Great War battlefields recently......

[Roger Payne]

Thanks chaps.......yes, the question was posed tongue in cheek. As an aside, I recently invested in a 'Linesman 2 Go' & whilst I was over there last week I managed to get to within a couple of hundred meters of where I believe my grandfather fell on 1st November 1916 (only the fact that the field was planted prevented me getting any closer). The software is a great advance over just trotting about the fields with an IGN map. It uses a Samsung padlet pre-loaded with a total of 800 trench maps & you can then lock the GPS onto the map on current view to show your precise position in relation to a trench or other WW1 feature. It works in real time so you can 'walk yourself onto' a trench. The marvels of modern science! I will return over the coming winter to try & reach the spot & have a few contemplative moments 'with him'.
