Let's do our bit, for those who did their duty.

Given up wearing Poppys, they get damaged quite easily then it looks like I am being disrespectful. I think it's because I often sit on my coat or it gets crushed against the back of my chair, or the poppy falls off.

Re: Poppy Appeal 2011.
It's great sadness to me that every year the number of veterans out there and able to raise funds for this worthiest of causes reduces. We'll be supporting them as usual and feel honoured to do so. In view of their heroics and sacrifice, it's the least we can do.
Words cannot adequately express the debt of gratitude we owe to all those who've served this country, suffered and laid down their lives in the process. God bless them all! :clap: |

Yes, the traditional variety don't wear well. A couple of years ago the 'vets' were out in our local high street selling larger and more robust versions (e.g. metal/enamel) of the traditional paper poppy. I bought several for the family and we've proudly worn them for Remembrance ever since but still donate each year when the time comes.

I was looking on the RBL store, they have Poppy everything. I like the badge, would rather get it from a stall however.
