There is a Donnelly, Cummins and Coady in the 3rd Battalion, 11th reinforcements. And also someone with the surname Morey, which could be the name written as Morrae. No Peter Murray found in that group but there is a Peter Murray in the 3rd Battalion, 23rd reinforcements.

It's weird that I'd been thinking so much about first world problems, and when I almost gave up - it hit me! You can't get a more first-world problem than eating TOO MUCH food. Went to YO! Sushi today for "Super Sumo Sunday" - we totaled up our plates midway through and realised we were at £175... someone took it as a challenge to get to £200. We ended up getting to £205.70... and were glad we had all you can eat (cos we're poor students!!). This is not the entire pile, and there was far more sushi than pictured.

 

Taken for OurDailyChallenge; "first world problem".

Every once in awhile, it's important to reflect on how lucky we are, just by where and to whom we were born ...

 

... and how much more work in the world there still is left to do.
