BOMBARDMENT - A hundred years on.
At the time of typing this, exactly one hundred years ago, German battleships were firing shells indiscriminately into the houses, shops, schools etc of Scarborough.
At the centre of my blip today, taken from the second floor window of our house, there was a shop which took a direct hit and a man was killed. Many others were killed or injured.
Hartlepool and Whitby were also attacked that day.
Impossible to imagine. Important to remember.
