Was given a typewriter for my tenth birthday. Drove my parents mad while they were trying to watch the TV.

The Welsh Dragon memorial at Mametz Wood

At 8.30am on July 7, 1916, the 38th (Welsh) Division began its attack on Mametz Wood.

The capture of the wood was key to a successful attack on the German second line in this area of the Somme battlefield.

The first advance floundered in chaos 200-300 yards short of the wood, and a further attack at 11am met with the same fate.

The Germans were well dug in and to approach the wood the attacker ha
