The Lion still stands in all it's glory.
It was erceted in 1886 as a monument for over 300 fallen soldiers who gave their lives in the Afghanistan campaign of 1878-1880.
And today, over 100 years on, British [and other] Soldiers are still giving their lives in that same country. I am sure this is not lost on the people of Reading.
Will we ever learn?
Londonbus1....I doubt it.
