Robert Mattewson's grave at Bapaume Post Military Cemetery, Albert. Somme, France. He was killed on the 1 Jul 1916 in the batlle of the Somme.

I arranged the first song 'Blaydon Races' in GarageBand and Band-ina-Box. I set it as an Irish jig because he was in the Tyneside Irish batt. of the Northumberland Fusiliers. The film covers the ground where he was killed I have also included some footage of Thiepval - close to Moo-Cow where a lot of Australians died for a 100yds of land.

The 2nd song I wrote (It's the last Summer, is in memory of Robert and Meggy, his wife, nmy grandmother. He left four children ages 4 to 8. This too was arranged in GarageBand and Band-in-a-Box
