Remembrance day

[jasmine]

For November 11th lest we forget....

To the brave servicemen and women who have given their lives in defence of our nation.

They shall not grow old as we who are left grow old.
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
WE WILL REMEMBER THEM.

"In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the gun below."
John McCrae
(1872-1918)

I have my poppy Lol, there are 5 poppies from previous years on the old bit of rug my dartboard is on

Leonie had her first poppy this year There were little old ladies saying she's a great advert for them.

Both myself and mum slept through the 2 minute silence this morning, we both went to bed quite late last night

It's not easy to do a two-minute silence in a room full of screaming toddlers who don't understand. I did it at nap time instead.
