You don't realise how little you know about the Falklands until you go there! Rosemary and Tony Hadland visited the islands in 2008 and 2011, where their son Jeremy was based with the RAF. Nothing prepares you for the rugged beauty of the place and the fascinating wildlife. On returning from their first trip, Rosemary produced an exhibition of photos and memorabilia for the Vale & Downland Museum, subsequently shown at the Oxfordshire County Museum. This popular talk was created to augment the exhibition. Wildlife, landscape and lifestyle are the key features.
