I am certainly no historian, but I do love learning from history and I do believe all aspects of history should be told.
I also believe that these stories should be told over and over again - it's important they are shared for generations to come.
So I thought it appropriate to tell the stories of why the relationship between Robinvale and Villers Bretonneux is so important and just one of the reasons I am emotionally attached to it.
I don't do this to speak on behalf of any of the families besides my own, but rather as a historical recourse on such a significant week.
The 40th Anniversary of the twinning of Villers Bretonneux & Robinvale.
