Hi again Stevin.
Sorry my typing is abysmal! when I put this on the site I had spelt your name wrong. sorry!I would love to have some pictures of Overloon and Venraij. come to that, any information about those places, for me it is so very interesting for it takes me back to when I was young, Was I ever young? The Dutch people did invite me for a holiday in Holland, everything paid. I wrote back thanking them for their generosity, but explained that I was too disabled to accept that offer, they wrote back immediately and said."No trouble, we will have a nurse waiting for you" I am sometimes amazed at peoples kindness.

I know from talking to other Veterans that have visited Overloon and other places in the Netherlands, just how well the folk look after our fallen. I know that the British are so grateful to the people of the Netherlands for caring so beautifully to the graves of our fallen comrades. I for one am very gratefull and so pleased to know they are in good hands.
Sapper Brian.
