Lets hope it's a looooong hot Summer!
The Menin Gate service is one of the most moving moments linked to WW1 I have experienced. Whilst exploring the Ypres Salient over the past 3years, I have watched the ceremony several times. Each time when the last post is played, you cannot help but be emotional.
