Poppy Appeal 2009

Got my paper one Saturday. Must try to find one of those enamel ones - as Dodgy said, it would look good on the suit.

Go to your local legion and see the poppy organiser, he'll have all the different poppies, you can volunteer for a couple of hours if you want, we need as many collectors as possible.

Trouble is Dave, I live in the middle of nowhere and we rarely see anyone selling poppies etc. I'll take a trip into Bideford on Saturday to see if I can track one down.
Never thought about volunteering for this before - I may just give it a go for a few hours at the weekend.

Nope local poppy sellers haven't got them for sale, although when asked the bloke said 'what like this one?' he was wearing it as a tie pin.
They said they are not allowed to sell them

Even the little feral kids in the village are wearing poppies.
