Featured Lest We Forget - Subtle Poppy Livery

My little tribute of remembrance

I live in a cosmopolitan part of the UK where some local factions complain about Poppy day, now whilst I’m not one to antagonise folks I’m also of the strong belief when you go to a country you abide by their customs, sure maintain your belief’s but don’t challenge or disrespect your adopted homeland.

Purple, white, green, meh red all the way.

Also, fuck em, however, won't be leaving Edna alone in the street until back to black Nov 12th

 

‘Some’ or one - and then in ignorance of the number of them honoured equally across this land and in Cemeteries across the globe.

They are sticky little feckers, I stuck them to my shirt a few times to lessen their stick

 

Showing my ignorance here - not sure what that means, a line from a poem perhaps

 

Some local factions or ‘one’ local faction? The Commonwealth War Graves Commission never differentiated between countries, creeds and colour.

 

Right I got you

 

You're not alone ......

Got to admire that.

 

I like the cut of your jib!

 

Does any of the money for these stickers go to the charity? Can’t see it mentioned on the website

 

I wouldn't think so, donations need to go to official poppy seller, the one I bought for my car is official poppy, as is the metal lapel badge

 

Excellent! Always a worthwhile sentiment....

 

Nice truck.

 

I’m of the mind that these complainers need to also be reminded to go feck themselves. Don’t mind telling them so either!

 

Yep Repooh, agree with every word you have said, its called respect, sadly lacking in this day an age, God I sound like my old man. Have you thought about keepin them on all year round. Then get out on the help the heroes rides, you would go down a treat.

 

Excellent

 

Hi troops. Sent for a packet of them but a bit worried about getting them off
after the 11th. Any advice would be welcome.

 

Thankee kindly DD, great tip.

 

An appropriate time to remember Harry Leslie Smith and his stance

"This year, I will wear a poppy for the last time

I will remember friends and comrades in private next year, as the solemnity of remembrance has been twisted into a justification for conflict"

Yep appropriate and true, only thing that puts me off fully endorsing is that it's in the Guardian!
