Living and Working on the Somme
Episode 8, Apr 20, 2022, 12:07 PM
In this week's podcast we look at the work of Julie and David Thomson who moved to the Somme battlefield in 2012 and opened a Bed & Breakfast on the old German front line in La Boisselle.
They explain why they moved to the Somme, what it is like to live and work there, the stories of 3 soldiers who were awarded the Victoria Cross for their efforts in the village. Julie explains her own family connection with one of these VC men."
