75th Anniversary of Royal Family Visit to South Africa End of Blog?

 Hi All Readers

Thank you very much for your interest over the last 29days.

Interest has waned in my blog postings over the last week, not surprising with what is happening in Ukraine at this moment in time. The sadness is that this blog goes back to just 2 years after the Second World War ended and here we are back to those times.

Therefore I am happy to continue but will need some positive comments to say continue otherwise the time involved in doing the blog will be an unnecessary effort of my time resources and I will not carry on with the blog.

Look forward to any comments either positive or negative.
