Brit Rock 12th November

I'm writing this shortly after the two minutes of silence on November 13th, remembrance Sunday. It's been wonderful to see all people of all ages giving money to the British Legion via the poppy wearing schemes. I have no problem with this but choose not to wear a poppy, if it becomes compulsorary, then it also becomes meaningless. It's more sincere to observe the silence in your own way than the countless hypocrites who wear the poppy, but are in a mindless conversation seconds before the silence, which they pick up the second afterwards. Obviously, their minds weren't thinking about the fallen, but about the continuation of whatever trivia was engulfing their minds. This was an observation I made recently.
