Snowstorm In A Teacup?

[joebloggs]

Come on all you would-be patriots ... I'd've expected at least some response before now!

some people have to work Arthur so i can't reply to some posts straight away , i might be in a minority now but I'm proud to be British and I know the sacrifices many people made for us to be free today.

my mom use to tell me stories when she was a child and what it was like to live under the Nazi's. and how her family escaped from the Nazis and Russian invaders to freedom in the UK

Actually, come to think of it, I haven't noticed anyone ... or any of the big supermarkets - like Tesco, for example - selling poppies at their tobacco kiosks this year. Usually around now, you see youngsters ... army, naval and airforce cadets ... rattling their collection cans in High Streets & shopping malls.

Which brings me to the question: Is Remembrance Sunday tomorrow or next week? Because I've still to buy a poppy yet!

Remembrance Sunday this year is 14 November

I noticed today, there were 3 people selling poppies outside our local Waitrose.
Had to 'pop' out again to get some stuff for Carina.
Looks like another housefull later

'Pop eh?' [pronounced "popp-y"!] Good man, Terpe ... I see you're picking up my style!
