Digging into the Trench!

Sutton: St Nicholas Church – Feeding Squrrels & Pigeons! (21.9.2025)

We visited the Church-yard of St Nicholas Church on the 14.9.2025 – a pleasant Saturday afternoon in South-West London (formerly East Surrey). At the moment we are experiencing what we use to call an “Indian Summer” – providing this is still an acceptable analogy (who knows – the ground upon which we stand keeps dissolving into loose sand).

Meanwhile, whilst the Japanese Airline in question stresses it places the sanctity of ‘human life’ above that of privileged animals – the lost lives of millions of ordinary men, women and children murdered throughout Asia and China during the 1930s and 1940s by the Imperial Japanese Forces (including three failed conflicts with the USSR during 1938, 1939, and 1945) – are ‘ignored’ and even ‘denied’ by successive Japanese governments!
