Default [OT] When should you wear Poppies?

People who appear on TV seem to be wearing poppies very early this
year or is it my imagination? There are 19 days to go before the 11th
day of the 11th Month.
What is the protocol for this and who decides these matters. I usually
wear a red poppy during the week in which the 11th day falls in.


Not even seen anyone selling Poppies yet. Think it's a bit like
Christmas with the media, they start much too early.


Could it be cheapjacks wearing previous years' tokens?
