2/2 Present at the gathering in London were Ralph Hollingworth and parachutists who were about to return to Denmark. In their honour I made my own version of the dessert and toasted those brave SOE agents who dined on it 80 years ago tonight.

1/2 On Christmas eve 1944, SOE agent Jutta Graae decorated a small Christmas tree, cooked a goose and made an 'on the ration' version of Risalamande, a traditional Danish rice pudding.

In #Denmark it is #traditional to decorate the #Christmastree with the Dannebrog. The tradition dates to 1864, in #ww2 the (now banned) flags adorned many a tree as a sign of #resistance. 2 chapters of Mission Europe are on SOE in Denmark. I made these flags in honour of those agents.

First day on @soe-expeditions.bsky.social. Scottish SOE and commando course. Just stopped at the David Stirling memorial. #SAS #whodareswins #heroes

Delighted that the publicity for 'Mission Europe' is in full swing and that the #bookseller featured it in their most recent publication. Out May 2025. #YaleBooks #GreyhoundLitAg #author #missioneurope #ww2 #history #HERstory

Today is final edits day on Mission Europe. It's very exciting! Publication is in May and I am looking forward to these lesser known stories becoming better known.
