	I know Joy, I read your post. I'm afraid it is hardly prominent. GR themselves haven't added a poppy to their profile pic.

	Island, I posted a picture of a poppy on their FB page; it has been liked by GR.

	No poppy on GRs FB. No surprise as their last post was 20th April. Last post indeed :-0

	The poppy symbol has arrived. One week before Armistice seems fair enough.

	Oooh....I thought you meant today Ann, to announce the appearance of the poppy perhaps ;-) :-D

	And about time too! You know, it would save the annual anguish if they'd just give a date for when they propose to add the Poppy.

Member Since: May 2006 Posts: 6,948 Send Message	Hooray!!! Kay???? I've never used an Avatar. If I wasn't stuck at home with a filthy cold (kindly donated by other family members) I would be out wearing my poppy with pride. Having had a Uncle die at the Battle of Jutland I was pleased to be able to see the Poppy window at St Magnus Cathedral, Kirkwall, on it's last day. It was very special and you could get close to it. All the shops opposite the Cathedral had decorated their windows and many had special items for sale commemorating the battle.
