I present talks entitled ‘The Man Who Shod War Horses’. and 'Lathoms Tin City' I am interested in the human side of WW1, My working life was spent in the banking industry. On retirement I lost some of the enjoyment of meeting people. Through these talks not only to I get pleasure from telling true interesting stories but also meeting new people. My objective is to raise as much money as possible to support the annual Royal British Legion Poppy Appeal.
