We do not have a Memorial Day in Britain but our Remembrance Day or Poppy Day is both your Memorial Day and Veteran's Day rolled into one. On the 11th of November on the 11th hour we have a minute silence and poppies are laid in Memorial Gardens and village/town memorials all over Britain. We have Memorial Gardens in Ashford and here are few photos I taken of them over the last few years.
