This year the weather was perfect.
We passed Nutley Post Mill.
... a Lodge with a view!
The inscription reads "To the glorious memory of Sgt/P. V.R. Sutton, aged 24 years, 142 Bom. Sqdn RAF also his five comrades who lost their lives through enemy action 31-7-41. Mother"
After a two minutes silence at 11.00hr, a bugler, words of remembrance and wreath laying a biplane circled the crowd scattering poppy leaves -- a very moving experience.
UPDATE 4th Nov. 2013. Tony will be leading this walk again in 2013. Please see www.midsussexramblers.co.uk and click on the "WALKS programme" button for information

What wonderful photographs from Sunday. We were there very early and being close to the memorial only had a view from within, so it is lovely to see the photos showing the size of the crowd gathered around.
Well done Peter for capturing such great scenes from Sunday Remembrance day. The size of the pictures too are worth keeping and sharing with others.
Fantastic.
