Posted by MaryB (Staffordshire, United Kingdom) on 28 April 2008 in People & Portraits and Portfolio.
Yesterday, we went to Cannock Chase Forest, Staffordshire. UK. Where an exhibition was opened about the soldiers that were stationed on the Chase at the time of the Great War. This week my posts will be from there. We were making our way to the car when, thunder was rumbling in the distance, then the heavens opened, we had managed to get to the car in time, thank goodness.
Thank you to everyone on your comments on Friday's post

Mary, how are you, I have had a few days off posting. I really like this shot which is reminiscent of the ones I posted earlier, looks like this guy is out of Dad's Army, I wish I had known about the exhibition.
