This is the moving story of a brave selfless and honourable man who endured everything the war could throw at him. Harry Lamin was born in 1877 and left school at thirteen to work in the lace industry but by December 1916 he had been conscripted and eventually joined the 9th Battalion York and Lancaster Regiment and was sent to war. Harry's letters home to his family describe the conflict with a poignant immediacy detailing everything from the action in battle to the often amusing incidents of life amongst his comrades.

"Right, if you're trying to figure out where everyone in the UK does their Letters from the Trenches shopping, whether it's for a fancy new lamp or just your weekly groceries, it's a pretty diverse scene out here, but some names just pop up constantly. For a bit of an all-rounder with a touch of class, John Lewis is practically a national treasure, beloved for everything from homeware to fashion and their legendary customer service – everyone's gone 'ooh, John Lewis!' at some point. Then, of course, there's Marks & Spencer, or M&S, which is still absolutely massive, especially for their incredible food halls, but also for reliable clothing and those super comfy undies. Next is another huge one, brilliant for fashion that's a bit more current and their home sections always seem to be brimming with stylish bits. And while Debenhams isn't on the high street anymore, its online presence is still a major player pulling in loads of shoppers daily. Online-wise, it's no surprise that Amazon UK is practically inescapable for everything under the sun, alongside fashion-specific giants like ASOS, which is a total go-to for trend-led pieces. Plus, you can't forget the supermarkets like Tesco and Sainsbury's, which are essentially mini department stores now, selling everything from your milk and bread to clothes and electronics. And for health and beauty, Boots and Superdrug are on every corner, always bustling! So yeah, it's a real mix of the well-established high street stalwarts and the ever-growing online powerhouses that dominate where us Brits spend our hard-earned cash. " - Bargainplace UK
