Time: 11am

Venue: Kelvinside Hillhead Parish Church Observatory Road, Glasgow West End G12 9AR.

Description: Marc Conaghan will cover the Glasgow and Clydebank Blitz and compare them. For the first time in centuries ordinary people find themselves in the front line. This talk follows on from the Mowforth's talk several years ago on the letters between their father and their mother, one a talk commander at Alamein and one at the Sheffield blitz. Their talk was repeated for the ladies circle: Mrs Mowforth's war was their war. Many of us also lived through the blitz it was our war too so Marc will find him facing original sources.
