I got a poppy on the first of the month and I doubt it will last until the 11th, I usually get at least three.

Remembering those who fell is the least that we can do.

Those stick on Poppies are hopeless, they've usually fallen off by the time you get home.

93 ceramic Poppies have been planted in a church in the Scottish Borders to represent the servicemen and women from the area, who've died in combat since 1916.

It was inspired by the Poppies: Weeping Window Art Installation at St Magnus Cathedral in Orkney.
