Jim and Georgina Boyes had decided to move to Belgium. They bought a house in Heuvelland on the French/Belgian border, with views stretching as far as the coast. In spring 2009, Jim was despatched to their new house with instructions to write some new songs - songs about anything but the First World War! He returned home with Spring 1919.

We visited their new home, and admired the view. Jim came in and said, "I was digging the garden, and I dug up this." He opened his fist to reveal a machine gun bullet. He continued, "In the next spadeful, I found these." He opened his other fist to reveal two more. He concluded, "After that, I stopped digging!"
