- A tad late for Rembrance Sunday, this, but found the press release amongst the hundreds of emails awaiting me back at work. Channel Four and the Imperial War Museum have teamed up to launch a couple of websites which could well be of interest – first, a searchable database of names of those remembered on First World War Memorials, and second, the United Kingdom Inventory of war Memorials, taking in all types of remembrance sites from all conflicts commemorated in the UK. Good stuff.

When my daughter went to the Western Front and then wrote her essay about it, she was very taken by the computer-aided ease of finding her great-great-uncle's grave. Happily, no one thought to say that this was discrimination against those children whose ancestors didn't live in Britain in 1914. No doubt it's coming.
