You could have added also that the day before was the anniversary of the battle / massacre at Isandhlwana (the subject of the film "Zulu Dawn"). On the other hand, you may not want to remember that as much as Rorke's Drift.

June 25th is the anniversary of the Little Big Horn.

Not even mentioning Maiwand,,(where Watson was wounded..)

So we can expect hordes of Welshmen singing in close harmony?
