Today marks another Trafalgar Day when we honour the memory of Lord Nelson and all who fell with him on October 21st 1805.

Here's a link to Wordsworth's poem, 'The Happy Warrior', published in 1806, in the aftermath of Trafalgar, which was inspired by the character and deeds of Lord Nelson.

Happy Trafalgar Day! :) RIP Nelson and all those who gave their life that day in service of their country.

I hope the great man's memory continues to live on for generations to come.
