I have quite a few requests for Thiepval, but I don't want to overload you with requests, so will leave them for another time. I very much appreciate your offer.
Thanks,

Hi David,
No problem getting you these men. I`m going on the 16th July back on the 18th. I`m doing the walk for Erskine Home. I already have 25 photos to take at Thiepval so please give me your list. The Mrs will be meeting me there and she`ll be taking the photos while i`m walking and then joining me for the last leg to Newfoundland Pk.
I was in contact with yourself and Anne a while back. I`m the guy doing the project on the Coatbridge Memorial men and you both kindly gave me permission to use photos from the site. Still a long way off with my researching but getting there.
