    ANZAC Day

    With the dawn service rapidly approaching us, and with some TWF'ers heading to Sydney for it I'm wondering what others are planning on doing ?

    It also came out in conversation this morning that with the popularity of ANZAC day and the next generation eager to march in place of the last, that the old song "And the Band played Waltzing Matilda" had a pretty pessimistic view with the line "soon no-one will march there at all". I'm glad it isn't true!!

    Jedi actually not a bad spot to make a run up to "Hellfire Pass" for the Dawn Service....if you cant ever make Galllipoli then "hellfire" is just as moving and sombre..
