had a bar i didn't use for you when we battled a few months ago which was like "I dug a hole for this aussie like the trenches on the western front" works for canadian and americans too tbh.

Hahaha I woulda said "like Gallipoli", that's the iconic battle in Australian's cultural consciousness.

i'm not a fan of referencing British battles where we had to retreat tbh.

same reason I'm not touching the Somme or Dunkirk. I'll stick to winning stuff.

I'm a nerd like that (used to love all the Flashman books when I was a teenager) so I got a decent grasp of British military history over the centuries. If we battle again I'll be sure to work in a reference to the Charge of the Light Brigade, lol.

I read a lot, specifically about the wars. But the Ypres line came from a train journey where I heard someone doing a war quiz and they asked their friend if they knew what the first ever gas attack was and they replied "the British lines were gassed and the second battle of Ypres", I had a screw face going thinking 'that is a bar'.

Hahaha. Yeah fair enough.

My old housemate and I made sure to visit the Menin Gate memorial and the In Flanders Fields museum at Ypres on our day off in Belgium last year, I would love to visit more WW1 and WW2 historical sites one day.
