2024 marks the anniversary of D-Day and earlier in the year, the BBC had a report on The Longest Yarn<\/a><\/strong> – a knitted tribute to D-Day was on display in Carentan, France. 80 x 1 metre long panels featuring iconic scenes from the film, The Longest Day<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition was going to come across to the UK in the autumn and go on tour around the UK. Luckily for us, it would be on display at The Garrison Church, Aldershot for three weeks which was close enough for us to visit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was something I knew Mum would be interested in seeing so we headed down to see the exhibition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tesco was the recommended place for car parking – however, it was a max. of 3 hours and I’d heard that it can be a bit of a wait but the other car parks were much further away. The church was a 10 minute walk from Tesco.<\/p>\n\n\n
