I spent many years in teh Boys Brigade Band walking that march.

I remember over all being about 11, wet through in just a shirt I'd played the solo at the cenetaph, and had to walk home all alone. My Mum went mad.

I always buy/wear a poppy, this year I managed to get one of those car ones for teh first time. I even got Siobhan one this year. My Dad fought in WW2 in fleet air arms. was on 3 ships, 2 of which were sunk after he was transferred. He spent most of his time out in India/Ceylon (as it was, now Sri Lanka).

He spent his 21st birthday crossing the atlantic and was thrown overboard for his trouble!
