It was not surprising that
there was an abundance of poppies about last week for Remembrance
Sunday. I asked who wrote 'In Flanders Fields' in last week's Sunday Snap. It was a Canadian solider and doctor who wrote the poem and
his name was
John McCrae
Sadly, like many of the
great war poets he never made it to the end of the First World War.
On 28th January 1918 McCrae died of pneumonia in Boulogne
and was buried the next day at the nearby Wimereux cemetery.
Something completely
different for this week. Row after row of bicycles. This is a city
known for its cycling – it has the second highest percentage of
people cycling to work. These bikes probably belong mainly to the
many students who live in this city. Indeed, it is the university for
which this city is most famous. This week's question is:
Which city are these
bicycles in?
