I am not a badge of honour,
I am not a racist smear,
I am not a fashion statement,
To be worn but once a year,
I am not glorification
Of conflict or of war.
I am not a paper ornament
A token,
I am more.

I am a loving memory,
Of a father or a son,
A permanent reminder
Of each and every one.

I'm paper or enamel
I'm old or shining new,
I'm a way of saying thank you,
To every one of you.

I am a simple poppy
A Reminder to you all,
That courage faith and honour,
Will stand where heroes fall.

Went to see the Tower poppies on Saturday - well I was in London village for a gig and it would have been silly not to.

Then had some lovely Brewdog with many pals before going to see Steve Rothery (Marillion guitarist). A friend of mine sings in a Marillion tribute and he has been invited onto the tour to sing a few old songs the band doesn't do any more. So pleased and proud of him :)

I am going to be trying for tickets for this!! TT tickets are almost as hard to get as glastonbury ones. Eek!

I'd love to see them at the festival but its unlikely. Would be great though!

    • It was fine, just hectic! The youngsters were mostly very well-behaved. The weather was a real bonus, although surprisingly chilly evenings - I guess it's the altitude - and the area between sound and main stage was a massive dust bowl.
    • Ive always had a lot of time for the mighty Shots, a pal of mine used to commentate on their games for Sussex Counties radio and he'd sneak me into the ground for midweek games, and we'd even nick a tea and a plate of sandwiches. This is back in the George Borg days, so um . . a little while ago now 
    • Hmm, weird- Rush are playing the Co-Op live on the 12th and the 14th, and Megadeth are the meat in that sandwich - so they have to roll everything in, roll it out again, only to roll it back in and then out - here's hoping for a prog hokey-cokey with all manner of bizarre time signatures and drum solos! 
    • Depends what you mean by seeing 'more stuff' about it.    I definitely don't trust the original Sun article.
