Yes I do every year, I even get one for my cats collar!!
Yes with pride
Sometimes if I remember
My Kids & Hubby do .... Always
yes I wear one and so does everyone else I know
yes, i always buy a poppy & wear it with pride.
Every year, and if I am not working always try to attend a memorial service. I also always try to observe the 2 minutes silence on 11/11 (I don't observe the other 'somebody broke a toe' silences)
i buy one but dont wear it a put it on my sons puschair cos it makes holes in my tops
i got one at home my neighbour came to the door recently as she does them, but i always forget to wear it. went to asda today and saw friend of mine selling them her husbands in royal british legion so felt guilty and bought another one, still its in a good cause.
I bet i am the only one on here that doesn't but...i don't..my reasoning....i am not sure!! I don't believe that fighting is the answer really. Now if on the other hand we wore a ...rose for the day the earth became at peace...well that would be a celebration, what is the point of raking up the miserable past all the time?
i am pretty open to change so if you are happy to try and give me a good reason for this, i will think about it and join everyone in wearing it!
Always, it is important to show respect.
yes, but I am always ashamed of how battered it seems to get.
Always get them,doesn`t matter which shop you go into there`s bound to be a poppy box at the till.
Yes I do and I used to have a collection box in my business for several years. "Lest we forget".
yes and i wear it with pride
My son is 5 and he has always worn one. He is getting to the age where I can explain what his Grandfather did in the war. He won't really understand for another 10 years, but at least he will know why we are thankful for all they did.
yes - we all have one and we cover then with sticky back plastic to prevent the screwed up look.
We should all Wear our poppies with pride.
yes i wear it with pride and a poppy sticker on my car and a big poppy on the front grid of my car.
Always! It's not about the rights and wrongs of conflict but in memory of all the brave men and women who suffered and gave their lives for their country!
No, I will not glorify or romanticize war. I would happily bear a message conveying the pain suffered by those fighting and their relatives but I will not help make violence, killing and dying for such a foolish concept as ownership noble in any way.
I do not think violence is ever the answer and only serves to generate more violence, only kindness and compassion can truly make things better :)
Love and kindness to all :)
I don't usually. There's a lot of hypocrisy about it.
When TV announcers universally wear poppies halfway through October, you have to question their motives. Have they been instructed to wear them? Have they donated any money, or has the BBC just handed them out?
My father and grandfather fought valiantly in two world wars, but they didn't expect everybody to be walking around with plastic poppies. I would rather just remember them with respect and gratitude, but no plastic poppies.
Yes I wear a poppy every year with pride. It`s my way of paying respect for all those who have died trying to keep us safe. I hate war (I grew up with bombs dropping all over London). It is a mark of respect. The proceeds from the sale of the poppy helps those who have served in our armed forces and for many it is the only help they get. God-Bless them all.
always our lives would be so much different if those men and women had not been so brave, i also think about those in Iraq and Afghanistan when i wear because i think people get so carried away getting annoyed that we went to war that they forget that there are real people out there each day risking their lives
always get 1 and wear it,remembrance day is important to me as not only is it about the memory of the ending of ww1 and all the brave men and boys who gave their lives 4 us,it is also the day of my birth.
I served for twelve years in the R.A.F. and always wear a poppy.
Every year without fail, I wear one with pride.
***YES.***
always always always!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i dont wear it on my clothes but i wear it on my bag! i think its shokin that people are stoppin wearin them!
