Stones from the home village of each of the 201 sailors are incorporated into the memorial.

Away in Edinburgh for The Queen's Garden Party yesterday and met another Anne she was staying at same hotel. Popped down for fly cuppa this morning and I asked if it was ok to sit. After a few minutes of chatting she said Iolaire. I said about my WWI interest....we will be in touch.
