Lest we forget.
Anzac Day 2012 has given me an opportunity to reflect on our gallant military forces of the past and present. My father (ex-Army) and I visited the Australian War Memorial a few months ago, and afforded us both the experience of envisioning the struggle and sacrifice undertaken in the various wars our nation has participated in.

The day has also given me an opportunity to do a few chores (gaining ground on household work seems very hard with a new born). One, is the restoration of two items of mine from when I was Jake’s age. A silver milk jug and a silver hair brush, which had tarnished over the 30+ years.
