Sophie Ellis-Bextor before going on stage to wow the crowds at Cartmel Racecourse. PICTURES by MILTON HAWORTH. 28TH JUNE 2019. Notes: I was covering the Cliff Richard Concert at Cartmel. One of the support acts was the lovely Sophie Ellis Bextor who was so relaxed she invited me up onstage with her before she went on. As we chatted at the top of the stairs she just looked back to the dressing rooms. I quickly lifted my camera and captured this shot. It all came together in an instant, the light, the look, the breeze blowing her hair slightly and the crowds waiting to see her. I wish all rock stars and performers were as nice as Sophie.

British soldiers look over a sheer drop in a waddi near the desert plains west of Musa Qala during a break in the fighting to retake the Helmand province town from the Taliban. They were part of the Brigade Reconnaissance Force (BRF) 52 Brigade were a specialist observation unit and mobile fighting force in Helmand province, Afghanistan used against the Taliban in late 2007 and early 2008. They lived and slept in the open air under the Helmand skies from their vehicles and wagons and rarely returned to base. They were resupplied by air or land convoys and reputedly were involved in the longest desert patrol by British forces since WWII. They were called the ‘Warriors whom God protects’ by the Taliban due to their lightly armoured and slightly ramshackle wagons. They could rarely wash or shave and were a fairly wild bunch to look at. On one of the few occasions they retired to Camp Bastion a senior British commander told them that they looked a disgrace and made them shave their beards off. The BRF had become supersicious and believed that this took some of their mystic and luck away and never forgave the Colonel concerned. In December 2007 they secured a safe route into Musa Qala to retake the town from the Taliban, probing their units and fighting against them as they tried to avoid the many I.E.D.s and countless legacy mines laid by the Russians during their time there in the 1980’s. As well as clearing the way for a 400 vehicle convoy they co-ordinated air support for U.S. Forces and provided fire support for them during the battle to drive the Taliban from the Helmand town. I spent two weeks with the B.R.F. living and sleeping under the stars on the Helmand plains.On the evening that we joined them by a re-supply convoy they had suffered the death of one of their comrades in an IED blast which also resulted in serious injury to two others. A few weeks after I left them I was added to hear that a young soldier called Cpl Darryl Gardiner was killed by an I.E.D. blast. He was the driver for the wagon which I lived in for the time I spent with them and had got to know him fairly well. He died after a Land Rover WIK was blown up by a legacy mine and as his vehicle was the Brigades company ambulance if needed he was killed as he took the survivors to a helicopter landing strip in the desert when his open vehicle struck an I.E.D. killing him and injuring the survivors from the first blast.
