I can't believe that it's eight years since this event:

The Lord Mayor of Hull pays tribute to the monument to 2nd Lt Jack Harrison VC MC. Rugby League's only VC & MC awardee. Unfortunately Jack's body was never found but thanks to the brethren of Rugby League fans worldwide, a fitting and lasting tribute was installed outside the KC Stadium and officially dedicated prior to the GB v Australia game on 8 November of that year.

Where was Thatcher? Surely she would've taken the opportunity to cop some more expenses

Sorry to hear about that. For what it's worth, condolences to you and the rest of your family. It's a difficult thing to deal with.



More widely: thanks for the poems, everyone. I had not seen the Yeats one before, French Ray: seriously found my eyes prickling.
