"This was our third visit to the Somme battlefields and we would most definitely like to do a tour of some of the other places of interest in the area with David on our next trip if at all possible. Kristen and I are both very keen history enthusiasts and what was really great was his depth of knowledge and the easy manner in which he explained things without omitting any details at all.
Once again, our thanks and gratitude for a very memorable experience.
Kind regards,
Michael and Kristen Thomson"

29th February 2024
Often February is a bridge between winter and spring but this February has had it’s wild moments - it has felt like the month has a life of its own, contrary, exerting authority over the weather. We have had stormy days, high winds, a lot of rain and very few blue-sky days with a chill still very much in the air. While our spring flowers are beginning to poke their heads above the soil, they are not yet brave enough to come out fully and expose their Spring glory. Walks out have meant coats, boots, gloves, hats and a dogged determination. A trait which our loyal customers have had and it has been lovely to have them here exploring the battlefields and sharing stories. In return for braving the elements in February you get to share the battlefields in their pared back beauty. No high crop to spoil the view, nature and wildlife around you, silence, no footfall other than your own, and of course the unique history can truly envelope you, giving up its secrets.
There has been a lot keeping us busy this month as well as finding time to go out and explore and discover new stories. Living on The Somme, we never get bored.
