Society building... (Anzac Day)
As a race, we have been society building for millennia,
the freedoms for which, have, at times, relied on the great sacrifice of others,
I have been freely visiting Wigan since child hood, satisfying my railway enthusiasm,
With "Anzac" day approaching, on the 25th April, and from comments by a fellow Flickr-ite, rail enthusiast and friend, i was mindful to produce a tribute in some way or another, ( i'm sorry if the image doesn't match expectation), but a "train" of thought was triggered when i saw this Ad and the women around it......
they had the unenviable task of waiting.... and hoping...
while their men went through atrocities and the torment of uncertainty.....
From which, we have more certainty in the "here today", "here tomorrow" of this Ad for a Building Society.
NB;-
The back ground or base image, is a of a Mural, one of two, at the main exit at Liverpool's Lime Street station,
The lower or foreground image, is an image taken on a recent visit to Wigan's North Western station, this is the scene that set my cogs whirring......
