I heard an item on Radio 4 yesterday about Harry Patch being honoured with the commission of a set of sonnets commemorating his life. They read a few exerpts from the poems and they sounded really good but I haven't managed to find a copy yet.

I watched the prog via Sky it was on BBC West so maybe BBC Scotland will have the repeat soon. My friend from The War Research Society Nick Fear was featured. Anne
