The Poppy Appeal

The usual nonsense regarding the do’s and don’ts and the rights and wrongs about the annual Poppy Appeal has begun in earnest as we approach Remembrance Sunday. Well, in that comic the Sun at least, where they choose to berate the stars of Celebrity Strictly Come Dancing and big-up the X-Factor contestants – read about it here.

As I said last year, however, please ignore all the political correct rubbish that is spouted about the poppy, and, as it states here – wear it with pride.

PS. If you have found this site by searching on X Factor can I take this opportunity to plead for you to please, please, please vote to get John and Edwood (Jedward) out (or at least not to continue voting to keep them in). This is our national pride we are talking about here.
