As always I will at the cenotaph tomorrow, always a great day.
Show respect and raise a glass to our fallen brothers on the pub crawl home!
We shall never forget them!!!

Took my young son to the Tower of London, in the rain and queues, was so moving seeing nearly a million poppies, each one a life lost! Then young minds ask deep questions about conflict and the value of life and death, not least because his Great Grandfather was a Lancaster Squadron Leader.

I've just been watching the Remembrance Service from the Royal Albert Hall. Makes me so proud of my country.
I just wish the pride could stretch to the politicians on show.

Sadder that the usual remembrance Sunday.
Children dieing fighting fascist scum all over the planet, Nazis to ISL all the same.

Well done Ireland, it only took you a hundred years to acknowledge that tens of thousands of your own people died in battle.
