@TBreakwell @James1940 @Airfix It was while researching content for my Guided Walking Tour (specifically 1st Battalion US Rangers) that I spent time looking at Sicily. James' book really brings the campaign to life. Highly recommended.

Very touching, and a stark reminder of what our ancestors who lived during the Second World War had to cope with. Watch it on catch up, if you missed it. You can thank me later.

@almurray @James1940 This was an outstanding episode, though I did find myself getting mentally prepared for you clotheslining a cyclist. Good job James was on point.

I was back at a local Primary School this morning, to talk about Carrickfergus during the Second World War. They were first school to invite me, last year, so by way of thanks I left them a copy of this by @Martin_Impey Once again, the pupils were so engaged and interested.

Overjoyed that my local independent bookshop @Thesecretbooks1 was able to get me this signed copy of Blitz by @Martin_Impey . Online purchases have their place, but there's something special about buying through a bookshop.

@wartimeni @WeHaveWays @almurray @James1940 @ww2finesthour @ww2research @HistoryUlster @paulkelly_down I'll admit my own ignorance, until a few years ago. Now, with a much better understanding and appreciation of the Belfast Blitz, one of my key objectives is to bring this to as wide an audience as possible.

@April_1970s @wartimeni NI's Second World War history is often overlooked, even by the local population. Thankfully, Scott and a few others, such as the NI War Memorial Museum, have done a lot to bring it to the fore.
