Armistace Day: Please buy a poppy!

Please don't forget people to buy a poppy and if possible make an additional donation to the Royal British Legion as this Saturday is Armistace Day. Direct donations to the Royal British Legion can be made here:

Also try to take the time out to observe the 2 minutes silence 11am this Saturday being it the 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month.

Back home in Australia as a teenager I would often help and work with my Pa (Grandfather) who is a 'Legatee' for the Legacy organisation which is a nationwide charity group that helps and supports war widows and their families. I'm sure most countries have similar charity organisations because most governemnts don't do enough in support of war widows/families.

Anyway, I'd just thought that I would remind people.
