Have you heard of the poppies at the Tower of London one for each life lost in the first world war. They are ceramic and now that the display is being dismantled you can buy them. We have both 2, one for us and one for my husband’s 92 year old mother well she will be 92 in January.

This is pretty cool, snugs. I would consider buying one but I did not see a link to how to do that on the website. If you know, pass it on if you don’t mind.

I have and I saw a picture when it was full (really beautiful) and another picture when they were removing the poppies. A wonderful remembrance.

Thank you for the link - great pictures.
