Which is wholly understandable, but still didn’t prevent them being invaded by the Germans. Which is why my dad was there, to fight the Germans in a big to-do called the Great War. While he was there, he and lots of other soldiers dug holes in the ground called trenches, and they lived in them for months at a time and fought other men who lived in other holes.’ ‘Why?”
