Today's quote of the day

"I have nothing to say, and I am saying it, and that is poetry." (John Milton Cage)

I know a few too many people who should take that to heart!

Seems that Mr Cage was an American composer and author, born in Los Angeles in 1912, died in New York in 1992.

When one drives across northern France or southern Belgium, it is almost impossible to miss the many signs - hundreds or even thousands of them - with their dark green background and white lettering indicating the existence of Commonwealth war cemeteries.  In other areas, one occasionally comes across a village churchyard or cemetery with s ign like the one at the entrance to the cemetery in PouancĂ©.  In the cemetery is just one grave of a British serviceman.
