Interesting to think that at one time you wouldn't have caught me anywhere near anything military. These days I feel a vague stirring of patriotic pride at such events. Chatting to three very young soldiers before photographing them standing by their field gun was all very pleasant, too. I think it's called getting old.

Soldiers
We went to Cardiff on Wednesday, mainly to visit the castle, which we had not visited before. It turned out to have a much more interesting history than we'd imagined, but there was a bonus. We'd forgotten that it was June 2nd - Coronation Day. We were treated to parades and music by the band of the Royal Army Air Corps before Territorial Army volunteers fired a 21-gun salute. As it happened, I'd recently acquired a new camera (the previous one was stolen long ago) and Angela got some nice video footage.
