Default wearing poppoes

I thought it was a bit OTT last night on Strictly, that they all wore
poppies, even the dancers. They must have had them very securely sewn
on. A pin would have been a bit too risky!

This might have been vaguely on topic if the poppy was a real poppy.
Only joking.
Joking aside, IMO everybody who has a conscience should remember why we are
all still free, and wear that poppy with pride.

In a few years time nobody will remember 11/11. because its not in our
lifetime. Winston and all the lost heroes of 2 world wars will no doubt be
in the history lessons when we and a couple more generations have passed.

Indeed.
