NUST Member Dimos Drandaltzis - proud Greek Toon fan since 1993

Dimos is pictured at  "the Karasouli Military Cemetery in my hometown of Polikastro (formerly known as Karasouli),Kilkis region in northern Greece behind our local football stadium. The town's municipal cemetery lies right next to it and my late grandfather always used to say I'm going to the English soon, in reference to the British Military Cemetery there. It lies approximately 55km north of Thessaloniki, the capital city of ancient Macedonia and apparently it contains some 1,421 Commonwealth burials of the First World War including one of a Sergeant from Co. Durham and I'm pretty sure some more of the wider region. "
