Mimitig



Every now and then I go to Kinloss Abbey – an old Cistercian relic. I think the furthest north the no-knickers monks ever came. Originally I visited to tick it off on my list of abbeys visited, but it is very real now because the graveyard is current. Last year 14 men from Kinloss died in Afghanistan, this year we’ve lost a few more from Lossie and Kinloss.

There are rows and rows of white crosses for men lost in wars that we don’t really understand.

This is the clip that sums it all up.
