I wear a poppy, and I down tools at work for the two minute silence. Everyone now does the same, although not all of them did when I first started working there. I was really glad to see when our foreman walked round with the poppies on Monday that everyone bought one.

I will wear a poppy, march a long side a parade to a service, were i will think about what those serviceman and women have none for our country

I always used to get poppy's but now I work out of town I never seem to come across any. But I will insist that before kick off on Sunday we do a minutes silence (but we usually do one anyway).
Then its a drink for the fallen after the game, got a few friends out in Afgan/Iraq at the moment its really brought the remembrance thing home to me.

I normaly wear a poppy, havent got one this year, but i always do the 2 minutes silence

Poppy, and general heightend respect of anyone wearing a medal and looking like they have a story to tell far greater than anything anyone could imagine.

I'll shut up at 2pm on the 11'th. I'll watch rememberance sunday on the beeb for a bit.

and just be thankfull that there are people who were (and are) brave enough to give their life so we can have our freedom

I will be chiming 11 times on the tenor bell at Llandaff Cathedral on Sunday, immediately after the last post has sounded. Proud to do so.
