What a lovely story, your husband Malcolm must have had a very interesting life, it is hard to imagine how difficult life must have been for him and those like him in the war, so young and vulnerable. I have read "the Railwaymen" by Eric Lomax so I have an idea about the human spirit and how people survived those terrible times.<BR/><BR/>Malcolm was a very gifted artist judging by his Venice paintings, I am so glad to hear that you had a good life together and that you have found happiness again.Acornmoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14982884920388966786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-91497473384146339352008-11-19T09:34:00.000-08:002008-11-19T09:34:00.000-08:00Just an amazing story.
