    A woman I work with is a war orphan & once every 5 years or so, she gets a paid trip to go to her fathers grave in France.

    This is off money from the poppy fund

    Remembrance Day - 2 Minute Silence


    On the eleventh hour of the eleventh month in 1918 the guns of Europe fell silent. After four years of the most bitter and devastating fighting, The Great War was finally over. The Armistice was signed at 5am in a railway carriage in the Forest of Compiegne, France on November 11, 1918. Six hours later, at 11am, the war ended.

    Shall we show our respect by not posting for the two minutes silence at 11 am today.
