This month’s report is rather short as our September class ‘Australians Behaving Badly’ fell before the last newsletter deadline, while our October class on ‘Technological Advances of the Great War’ falls after this newsletter’s deadline. We are all thoroughly enjoying ‘Over there’; have enormous regard for John Barry’s knowledge of and passion for his subject matter and are hopeful that the course will continue in 2018.
