    Good morning all, another mild day.

    Hugs to all that need them xx

    JTS, that is really moving. We were talking to our grandson the other day and he did not know what he was wearing a poppy for, apart from poppy day :( That will be corrected when we have chance. Do they not teach it in school anymore? He is 8 fgs!

    Is there a balance to be struck between celebration and commemoration I wonder. I drove through a village today and it was dressed up with flags as if we'd won the World Cup. I'm not judging, I just hope things don't get too commercialised with our Remembrance Day......we all know who makes money out of that and it's not the British Legion.

    Sorry E that wasn't aimed at your post...I just happened to quote it.
