The 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month has just passed, and it continually baffles me how people can be against such an event. Whenever I passed a Poppy Scotland tin, my change went in. The replacement of the pin with a plastic stem annoys me as I can't wear a poppy all the time, but I do it when I can. A small wad of change and a few minutes out of my day is nothing compared to people who gave up their lives to give us the freedom we have today, something that people should never forget!
