Interesting home

I took these photos this morning of the home and surroundings of Field Marshal Bernard Law Montgomery, 1st Viscount Montgomery of Alamein, 'Monty'. He lived and died here and is buried in the local churchyard. The river in the photos is the River Wey.

Perhaps some of you might find this interesting.

I discovered yesterday that the Open University have lots of free courses so I have enrolled. I thought it might be another activity to fill my time productively. I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of the courses on offer. Maybe have a look?

Yes, I have done some of these courses Billy. I think they are a great way of learning about something that interests you. There's no pressure and you can take your time.

I enjoyed looking at those photos of Monty's home. Looks beautiful. What part of the UK is he buried? I'm a history buff myself and particularly enjoy anything related to the last war.

Thanks for sharing.

I’ll give it a try. Used to love learning pre-brain tumour so sounds a good way to get back into it
