Hiya Mick, I checked out Office Dance. I liked it. Has a Beck sound to me and I dig that. Thanks for directing it to me. I am glad you bumped DESK up as I really enjoyed reading it.

Hello Mick - I too had a family member - a maternal uncle - who was killed in action in August 1916. Family research turned up stuff I never heard from my mother who was of a generation which kept its cards close to its chest when it came to what was talked about. My late father also served and survived through 1917-1918...and was in uniform again for WW2. To have endured and witnessed so much grief and suffering in a single lifetime is almost beyond my own comprehension.
