I’m doing a Normandy tour next year following the fortunes of the Sherwood Rangers from D-Day to the end of the campaign. An entire new tour! Should be a blast. In case anyone is interested… https://t.co/uXD6FycF2v @WeHaveWaysPod

Heading to Mallaig on the Jacobite. Going to pass through Morar where I grew up! Can’t wait @WeAreTripsmiths xxx

Chilly in Glencoe this morning, but still stunning @WeAreTripsmiths Snow on the tops of some of the hills xxx

@WW2TV Just missing some Merguez! Lovely area. Remember that resistance memorial being very chilling seeing it as a kid. But loved it over to Villard and Meaudre

@AidanOSulliva15 @James1940 @tstours @WeHaveWaysPod It was great having on board both of our @WeAreTripsmiths Normandy and Arnhem trips last. Lovely to meet and chat with you too

The recent @WeAreTripsmiths tour of WW2 Malta with James Holland will take some beating. But, we are both going to give it a go as we head for Sicily and an equally exciting tour of the Op Husky battlefields. https://t.co/pH5Iampty1

[Simon Leeming @Si_Leeming]

What an absolutely fab job the three of them have done on this trip!

[James Holland @James1940]

I sat in this fabulous Spitfire when we launched Fortress Malta here at Takali in Malta back in 2003 and very lovely to be back - and with two great pals! @stubertphoto @MikeHistorian @WeAreTripsmiths @WeHaveWaysPod

[Mike Peters @MikeHistorian]

We were privileged to visit Malta's old Royal Naval Hospital today. Still very much a work in progress, the refurbishment is progressing well. We spent some time discussing the fortresse's role as the Nurse of the Mediterranean.

[Mike Peters @MikeHistorian]

Malta still bears the scars of its ferocious WW2 siege. The @WeAreTripsmiths group enjoyed exploring the three cities for evidence today.

@James1940 enthusiastically explaining how a Stuka operated over Malta.

Tracking a dramatic course today - following an ill-fated flotilla of Italian 'Barchino' MTBs as they attempted to raid Malta's Grand Harbour on 26 July 1941. It was a costly mission that the Italians paid an extremely heavy price for.

[Mike Peters @MikeHistorian]

There has to always be an element of Op Husky in a WW2 battlefield tour - today was no exception at Lascaris War Rooms. Some extensive Sicily exhibits are being constructed for the summer. Even a Glider Pilot Regt exhibit.

[Mike Peters @MikeHistorian]

Fortress Malta - the story told in epic style by @James1940 to our international group from @WeAreTripsmiths
Quite a few @WeHaveWaysPod members, too. What a backdrop for the Malta story to be told against.

[Simon Leeming @Si_Leeming]

@guywalters @James1940 That’s an album cover! When’s it being released?

Why does my really poor joke about someone having found tomatoes somehow have 24 likes from bots and despite only having been seen 10 times. Twitter is genuinely fucked

@SJGarrido I hear Wakey Wines are interested in taking them off your hands to sell along side bottles of Prime for £100 a pop
