I still haven't obtained a poppy yet, however I haven't looked for them either, they are everywhere though, I do have to make a point of getting one this week.
It's a fairly standard memorial type day here, although most stores that do open on Nov. 11, will only be open after noon. But it's a day off from school and work for most people. Assuming I'm not sleeping at 11am, there will be a moment of silence. If I am sleeping.....well I shouldn't be.
I have to say though, I'm saddened at the lack of respect given to the day, in that there still are stores that will open, etc etc. Maybe one day it will again be a true day of respect for those that fell in battle. Until then, do what we can to remember them.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
Hatred on the fact that I lost my old sig, maybe I'll get it back someday. Or not!
