So today I wasted most of my working hours at the National Memorial Arboretum, which does exactly what it says on the tin - it's a lot of trees and a lot of monuments. Every single tree in there is dedicated to someone and every single monument commemorates a battle or a regiment or a ship - which is pretty moving if you stop looking at the pretty scenery and think about it for a minute. Still, I wonder how long it will be before people come to enjoy the present as well as remember the past...

They're building this at the moment. It's a great big circular war memorial thingy. Impressive, huh?
