Remembrance Day

 Is still alive and well, there was a good turn out for the parade on Sunday led by local Scouts and Guides from the two villages Hamble and Netley.

Around the area the local knitters (actually crochet) have been decorating local post boxes, above classic RAF pilot and nurse are brilliantly represented.

The door to St Paul's on the green at Sarisbury, a few of us gathered outside by the war memorial with a small party of children from Sarisbury school, the Mayor, local Councillors, armed forces and police.

 

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: 

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. 

At the going down of the sun and in the morning 

We will remember them. 

Laurence Binyon, 1869 - 1943
