Wounded

Hi all.  I am not dead, just wounded.  I snapped my left arms bicep muscle whilst holidaying in Italy.  After that I had to endure a painful return to Australia for extremely painful surgery and an even more painful recovery.  I did get to visit Monte Cassino in Italy.  It was a great experience.  But due to the injury I had to cut our holidays short and I missed battlefield tours of the Somme and Normandy.  And a visit to the Bovington Tank Museum and HMS Belfast.  I have started using youtube as my blog now which is the main reason I have not been posting.
