When Wellington saw the Lion Mound, he said "They (the Dutch) have ruined my battlefield." Obviously forgetting the fact that the United Netherlands contributed a third of his troops. Also, some time this week Aunty Beeb are repeating the Waterloo episode of War Walks.
I was looking at that hill thinking 'that's a bit unrealistic' and then realized where it was. It's a great test of stamina getting up to the lion monument and a real test of balance coming down.
