Prince Harry has opened a field of remembrance dedicated to all the British military personnel killed in Afghanistan.
The Prince, who has served in Afghanistan, planted a cross alongside 35 thousand others, in a garden at Lydiard Park close to the Wiltshire town of Wootton Bassett.
It is midday in Poznan, and a large gaggle of tourists has gathered beneath the clock of the 16th Century town hall, to witness a bizarre daily ritual that has been going on for centuries.
As the clock strikes 12, two metal goats emerge from a small window high up on the wall and begin to lock horns.
In the market square below Chris Pedersen is on hand to explain to a group of rather bemused tourists exactly what is going on.
Chris is a former restaurant owner from Berlin who has been living in Poznan for the past four years.
He now makes his living providing culinary tours of the city. He shows people the sights, then cooks them dinner.
Some are employed by the many large German corporations, such as Volkswagen, which have a major presence in the city.
Many others though have come here to start businesses - and see Germany's eastern neighbour as a land of opportunity.
"Everything exists already, so if you have a good business idea you'll find many other people are doing exactly the same. There's so much competition.
"In Poland it's different. People are still curious and if you have a new idea there's plenty of room to develop it."
Poznan is only the fifth largest city in Poland, but because it is relatively close to the German frontier - a mere three hours from Berlin along an arrow-straight motorway - it has become a favourite destination for a new wave of German entrepreneurs.
A short tram ride from the town centre, a number of plush new hotels have been built to cater for the foreign influx.
The manager of the Sheraton, Marco Foelske, is himself German. He says at least a third of his guests are business travellers from his homeland.
"I think quite often Poland is still perceived as - behind the Iron Curtain, out in the East, the unexpected.
"About 60% of Germans have never been to Poland. So there is still this resistance from people who haven't seen the unknown yet!"
The German business community in Poznan is relatively close-knit and regular meetings are hosted by the German-Polish Business Circle - a kind of club for executives and entrepreneurs in the city.
"You find conditions which are just the same as at home, and you can also count on very good workers who will identify with your company," she says.
"And you can win an enormous market - people are interested in German products. German products have a good name in Poland."
You might think that the turbulent relationship the two countries have had in the past would make it difficult for Poles to accept the growing influx of German workers - but in fact that does not appear to be the case.
According to Jan, a sushi chef in his thirties, young people at least are willing to forgive and forget.
"So young people, they just cut the history and don't think about it. It might be a bit different for older people though."
In fact, concerns about the amount of investment heading eastwards are more likely to be heard in Germany itself, particularly in the former German Democratic Republic.
Much of the region is still struggling to attract new investment, to replace the state-owned industry which collapsed in the wake of German reunification two decades ago.
"Businesses are leaving east Germany and there's a lot of unemployment there," says Grzegorz Glowacki, a Polish banker who lives and works in Berlin.
While the growing relationship between Germany and Poland is widely seen as the inevitable consequence of the latter joining the European Union, there are other factors at play as well.
Among them, say analysts, is the close relationship between the German Chancellor, Angela Merkel, and the Polish prime minister, Donald Tusk.
According to Marco Foelske, it is something the German community in Poznan would like to see continue after the election.
"Certainly the large companies know what they have at the moment, and absolutely they like things the way they are," he says.
Meanwhile, life in Poznan is not without its challenges - the Polish language it seems is tricky to learn and German is not widely spoken, so most Germans try to get by, by speaking English.
"The clocks tick a bit differently here, you could say. I had to learn that in Poland, everything you want done will be done, but always at the last minute.
The family of a young woman who died from sudden adult death syndrome have organised a free cardiac screening day for young people in Hampshire.
Claire Reed, 22, from Botley, collapsed in February when her heart stopped working, despite being fit and healthy and showing no symptoms.
Her father Graham Hunter said he wanted to protect other families from the "tsunami of emotion" of losing a child.
The family of Mrs Reed, who got married five months before she died, have raised the £3,500 necessary to bring a mobile screening unit to the leisure centre.
They will undergo an ECG (electrocardiogram) test and if necessary an echo test. Patients with negative results will be referred to a cardiologist.
Mr Hunter said: "To have a perfectly healthy young daughter who went to the gym, didn't smoke and drank in moderation, to just die like that - the emotion is really hard.
Mrs Reed's family, including her husband Andrew Reed, have so far raised £25,000 for Cardiac Risk in the Young (Cry) and will look to set up more screenings in Hampshire in the future.
The family lobbied Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt in June for cardiac screening to be routinely offered to people under the age of 35 on the NHS.
According to Cardiac Risk in the Young (Cry), at least 12 people aged under 35 die suddenly each week in the UK of previously undetected heart problems.
The organisation, which works to raise awareness of the various conditions that can cause sudden adult death syndrome, said figures suggest a 90% drop in deaths in Italy since mandatory screening was introduced there.
A man has been arrested in connection with a house fire that killed a woman and her four-year-old son.
Gina Ingles, 34, and Milo, four, were found in Croxden Way, Eastbourne, a day after Tuesday's blaze.
Detectives said a 47-year-old man from Eastbourne was arrested on Sunday morning on suspicion of two counts of murder and one of attempted murder.
In a statement released last week Ms Ingles' family described her and her son as "our shining lights that brought love to us all".
The fire broke out at about 01:20 BST on Tuesday, but the property was unstable, and it was not until Wednesday that the pair's bodies were found.
Australia took a flurry of late Somerset wickets to finish a difficult opening day of their Ashes tour on a note of triumph.
Chris Jones struck his maiden first-class hundred and Nick Compton responded to being dropped by England with a confident 81 as Somerset reached 304-2 after tea.
But a new-ball barrage from Mitchell Starc and James Pattinson, in which the hosts lost six wickets for no runs in six overs, saw them collapse to 320 all out.
Starc finished with figures of 4-33 and Pattinson 4-56 to strengthen their claims to open the bowling in the Ashes, which start on 10 July at Trent Bridge.
But in truth, their late heroics only served to mask the failing of Australia's other bowlers, who rarely looked threatening and at times were treated with disdain by the unheralded Jones, who cracked 21 fours and two sixes.
Jones came into the match with a first-class average of 17 and was only playing because of an injury to regular number three Alviro Petersen, but by the time he had sliced James Faulkner to gully he had made 130, 61 more runs than his previous highest first-class score.
Taking his lead from the increasingly confident Compton, he helped steer Somerset to 97-1 at lunch after former England opener Marcus Trescothick had pulled Pattinson to Starc at fine leg in the fourth over of the day.
Compton, who was left out of the England squad for next week's Ashes warm-up match against Essex, brought up his fifty off 82 balls from the second delivery after lunch and cracked Peter Siddle for successive fours to close in on a century.
On 81, however, he pushed forward to the spin of Nathan Lyon and edged to slip, where Australia captain Michael Clarke took a one-handed catch at the third attempt.
Jones brought up his three figures with a punch through the off side off Faulkner for four and added a further 30 before he aimed a tired-looking drive at the same bowler and got a thick edge to Shane Watson.
As Jones left the field to handshakes from the Australian players, there was little indication of the fireworks that would follow with the new ball.
First, Starc bowled Craig Kieswetter with an inswinging yorker and then James Hildreth's breezy 66 came to an end when he was trapped lbw by Pattinson.
Somerset's next five batsmen failed to add a single run between them as Starc accounted for Alex Barrow, Craig Meschede and George Dockrell, while Pattinson got Jamie Overton and Peter Trego.
All five were either clean bowled or lbw, with only last man Gemaal Hussain surviving the onslaught to finish unbeaten on six.
Carlton Cole (left) and Leigh Griffiths both scored as Celtic progressed to the Scottish Cup fifth round
Celtic manager Ronny Deila praised Leigh Griffiths and Carlton Cole as they combined to knock Stranraer out of the Scottish Cup.
Deila switched to a 4-4-2 shape to accommodate the pair as a partnership up front and they delivered an impressive display as both scored in the 3-0 win.
He was satisfied with his goals tally, although he nearly did add a third with an outstanding volley. The Scotland striker scored in each half, while Cole notched his first for the club with a header just before half-time.
"We need to have the ability to play different systems, but it's not about systems, it's about principles. We can do that with 4-4-2, 4-2-3-1, 3-5-2," said Deila.
"We controlled [the game] very well. It's tough to play away in the early rounds of the cup, and the pitch was tough as well.
"[Stranraer] started well, but we got into it after 10 minutes and then controlled the whole game. We won comfortably but should have scored more goals."
Griffiths admitted that the conditions - a strong wind and an uneven surface - made the game difficult. He enjoyed playing up front alongside Cole, though, and was impressed with the display of Stranraer's 18-year-old goalkeeper, Max Currie.
"[Currie's] double save in the first-half was outstanding. I should have put the first one away, but the second save was even better.
"A couple of people back home said they had money on me for a hat-tick, but if you'd offered me a double beforehand, I would have taken it."
Stranraer manager Brian Reid was also pleased with Currie's performance, but disappointed with his side's defending for the goals they conceded.
"We knew they were going to have most of the possession, but we wanted to have a wee go," Reid said.
"The conditions were tough for both teams, but I was disappointed with the manner of the two goals we lost.
"I don't think Celtic created too much cutting us open, but we got punished when they did. Griffiths is the bane of my life, every time I play him he seems to score.
Polls have closed in the Central African Republic where elections have been held to end years of conflict.
UN troops patrolled the capital Bangui to stop a repeat of the clashes seen during a recent referendum on a new constitution, but voting passed peacefully.
CAR has been torn by sectarian violence since the largely Muslim Seleka rebel group seized power in March 2013.
Wednesday's voting passed with "no serious incidents" taking place, the commander of the UN peacekeeping forces in the country, Balla Keita, told AFP news agency.
Mrs Samba-Panza said that "many people believed the day (of elections) would not be possible because of insecurity" and organisational issues seen during a referendum held two weeks ago, which was marred by violence.
UN peacekeepers staged patrols and positioned armoured personnel carriers at polling stations in Bangui.
"I've been dreaming of this election for two years since the day armed men killed my father and my brother in Bangui. I voted for peace," said Ahmat Abouna, who fled to the Cameroon border town of Garoua-Boulai and voted along with thousands of other refugees, Reuters news agency reports.
Businessman Gradias Vara said: "We came to vote because we want to be free to get back to our professions. We want to put an end to the conflict."
Voting was extended at numerous polling stations where logistical problems had delayed voting, including in Bangui's flashpoint PK5 district, the AFP news agency reports.
The new head of the 11,000-strong UN force, General Bala Keita, said the atmosphere was "good-natured", and there had only been a few "administrative issues".
"It won't be like last time [the referendum vote]. We have learned, the people have learned, the saboteurs have learned. So we have all have learned. So today, God willing, all will go well," he told journalists in Bangui before polls closed.

Judging by the long queues in Bangui, it seemed that people were determined to turn the page on violence and division which they blame on rotten politicians driven by their own interests.
The same determination was seen during the 13 December referendum when many voters in Bangui's mainly Muslim PK5 district defied armed men who tried, and partly succeeded, to disrupt voting.
General Keita promised that troops would be more aggressive during the election, and said it was unacceptable that they could not help citizens fulfil their duty of voting when there were so many of them in CAR.
So the election is likely to be peaceful compared with the referendum, especially after a powerful Seleka leader, Nourredine Adam, backpedalled on his threat to disrupt voting in areas under his control following pressure from Muslim leaders.
The interim government and international donors pushed for the poll, believing that an elected president and parliament would help CAR, where most people are poor despite the fact that it is rich in resources, move forward.
But it is not going to be a perfect election, and if the poll is marred by widespread logistical problems and claims of vote-rigging, the post-election period will be difficult to manage.
Results are not expected for a few days. Observers say a second round is likely and could be held by the end of January.
After seizing power, the Seleka rebels installed Michel Djotodia as the first Muslim leader of the majority Christian country.
But under pressure from regional leaders and former colonial power France, Mr Djotodia stood down and was succeeded by Ms Samba-Panza.
Mr Djotodia and Mr Bozize are both in exile and face UN and US sanctions over violence in the country.
