11th of November 2010 at the Menin Gate in Ieper (Ypres)

I had edited this clip and uploaded it hoping to post it yesterday but YouTube took too long to process it (they have been a bit rubbish lately). The clip contains a few of the highlights of the 11 O' Clock ceremony at the Menin Gate, in Ieper (Ypres), Belgium, on the 11th of November 2010. I am sorry about the shakiness of the clip but the wind was gusting to 100Kph (more than 60 Mph), which destroyed my cheap umbrella (I bought A Better Umbrella at the museum shop after the ceremony).

There are still a few days until Remembrance Sunday, so if you haven't already there is still time to buy a poppy or Buy Something Nice or just Make A Donation, to the annual poppy appeal.
