How long will it take GR to remove the poppy????

I wore my poppy for 2 weeks, which is went they went on general sale, removed it yesterday before I went out.

The tradition over here seems to be to a) leave your poppy at the Cenotaph* immediately after the service is over if you attend there, b) stop wearing it at the end of Remembrance Day or the next day at the latest.


*At the National Cenotaph in Ottawa, the tradition is to lay your poppy on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier which is very close to the Cenotaph.
