RIP Sergeant Joseph Ebbit Abbott No 15797 Royal Dublin Fusilliers and all who died on the battlefields of France, Belgium and everywhere over the years of terrible wars
I have been wearing the poppy all weekend as a tribute to my great uncle who was killed in Belgium in February 1917 at the tender age of 18. IT's terrible to say that in those days it was considered shameful on the families of those who fought bravely with little or no training for the freedom of Europe.
I believe it is only right and fitting to honour these courageous men and boys so well said David
Thanks for this thread LL. I emailed as soon as I read it the other day. I was touched by ovarian cancer a couple of years ago so I feel very strongly about this subject too
Definitely has to be Fairytale Of New York by The Pogues and Kirsty McCall... I love The Power Of Love by Frankie Goes To Hollywood too, though it's not really a Christmas song, just the video was
Strain this chaos turn it into light I've got to see you one last night Before the lions take their share Leave us in pieces, scattered everywhere
Just give me a chance to hold on Give me a chance to hold on Give me a chance to hold on Just give me something to hold onto
It's so clear now that you are all that I have I have no fear cos you are all that I have It's so clear now that you are all that I have I have no fear cos you are all that I have
You're cinematic razor sharp A welcome arrow through the heart Under your skin feels like home Electric shocks on aching bones
Give me a chance to hold on Give me a chance to hold on Give me a chance to hold on Just give me something to hold onto
It's so clear now that you are all that I have I have no fear cos you are all that I have It's so clear now that you are all that I have I have no fear cos you are all that I have
There is a darkness deep in you A frightening magic I cling to
Give me a chance to hold on Give me a chance to hold on Give me a chance to hold on Just give me something to hold onto
It's so clear now that you are all that I have I have no fear now you are all that I have It's so clear now that you are all that I have I have no fear now you are all that I have
