sorry got waylaid again lol...

on Ancestry reading my gt uncle's war records ....he was gassed in France October 1918 and had "hammer toes in all but his big toes" , a scar over his left wrist, was 6 ft 2 and a half inches tall etc .... really brings him to life as it were...I have his son's autobiography so was lucky to be able to match up his address and pinpoint him that way .

LOL Rose - you need to join my 'side' - it's offside - otherwise know as billy no-mates!!! I have never been 'accused' of 'siding' - mainly because i'm ignored - I can kill a thread with one word! LOL

As for Hammer toes - to have every toe but the big toes hammered is unusual - I dread to think what sort of shoes he wore as a child. My dad had hammered big toes.

maggie

sounds a bit like the toes were sloshed!

lol Maggie, quite possibly his toes WERE sloshed...he had a reputation for liking the drink :) I am sure the shoes he wore as a child were probably hand-me downs , he was a policeman before and after the war , so hopefully got the right size shoes then at least .

I've got a hammer toe! (just thought I would pop that fact in - purely for my own benefit really) although I might form a "Hammer Toe Club" or clique.
