TODAY is the 80th Anniversary of D-Day and in Southport an unusual:- 'Random Act of Crochet Kindness' has been made on Lord Street, Southport, to commemorate the occasion. Southport Hookers have made a unique art work called:- 'Harry Howorth 1921 to 2024' as part of the UK Post Box Toppers network.
The models are of a soldiers in uniform, a Lancashire Bomber and a tank. The soldier was inspired by local D-Day veteran Harry Honworth who recently died aged 102.   This is an interview we conducted with Harry Howorth who served with the Kings Shropshire Light Infantry. var _gaq = _gaq || []; _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-5165542-3']); _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']); (function() { var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true; ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ?
