“To those who gave so much, we thank you.”

I've just been to stand for two minutes outside my house and remember all who "did their bit" to make for Victory in Europe in 1945.  This afternoon I shall go outside again and join with my neighbours for  a stay-at-home tea party at 3pm.  This road and the next (which is also a cul de sac) have each come to a consensus that we will celebrate quietly but publically with scones, jam and cream (everyone brings their own) and a cup of tea or glass of fizz.  I've never been to a celebration like it and I'm rather looking forward to it.

Here's a few local homes.  Sorry the photos are even worse than usual!

Lots of houses have bunting

This flower is a thank you for the NHS

All I could find was a bag of poppies but I've done my bit!
