This Saturday is the anniversary of DDay.
In memory of the 55,000 soldiers that set off from Southampton in 1944, many never to return, a lone piper will be playing at the DDay memorial in Royal Victoria Country Park at 7:30am for about 15 minutes.
If this seems like a fitting start to your weekend, please feel free to join them.
The DDay memorial is at the edge of the shore, at the end of the path down from the chapel.
