00:00My name's Ron Snowball. I come from London, South London. That's the difference.
00:12Are you a veteran yourself?
00:16Yes, obviously not of D-Day. I'm younger than that.
00:20Well, it's very important. I mean, one of my uncles was killed.
00:25He was a company sergeant major. He was killed on the 7th of June.
00:29Well, he died on the 7th of June. He was injured on the 6th. He was a company sergeant major.
00:34And so he's buried at Bayer.
00:37So when we go over next week, we're hoping to have a quick visit there so I can visit his grave
00:43and photograph it and send it to the rest of his family.
00:48So it's very important.
00:50Why don't you take us through the medals you've got on?
00:53Oh, these are just for turning up.
00:56First in the NAAFIQ. Things like that. They're all service medals. There's no gallantry awards there.
01:26This portion of that one is for reaching against the sun, and that one is not.
01:56Do you want me to shoot it?
02:29Be very quiet.
02:41Be better off over the other side, hun.
02:59Oh, my poor bicycle.
03:04That's locked in there. I was going to go to that guy there, but that's locked.
03:28Exactly.
03:51Where's that car?
03:54One more!
03:56One more!
04:23Oh, that's us!
04:28Here's Alan, the king.
04:43And he's gone.
04:49He's really good, though.
04:53Well done, Alan.
05:23Thank you.
05:53Thank you.
