ON Sunday, November 13, my mother and I went, as we do every year, to lay flowers on the War Memorial at Kidderminster, in honour of my father, who died in April 1945.
We know you can hardly read the names, which in itself is a disgrace, but this year the shelf where the flowers are laid was disgusting - thick with dirty moss and mud.
Couldn't our council have spared a worker to clean off these shelves? It wouldn't have taken long.
How different it is in a Dutch cemetery, where my father is buried.
They respect the men who gave their lives.
Perhaps if the War Memorial was in front of the town hall something would have been done by now.
