Another year, and the tradition of the poppies is still going strong. This time of year always leads to discussions as to whether we still need to mark it or is it old news?
It absolutely is relevant for all to remember the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month. It is incomprehensible to think of the number of men who died in the many muddy battles of the flanders fields before the ceasefire was called. The amount of blood shed for the future of the country, is not something that should be forgotten.
If you missed the 2 minute silence today then maybe take 2 minutes later today, and when the bus is late, or you burn your toast or have the sniffles...remember the brave men who fought all those years ago
