Must sat Terry I find your post just a little trivial.
You know where I was when you had your problem, in Northern Ireland along with many others & I lost 3 good mates and that is why I find your post trivial to say the least.
Yes I can understand you were angry and £6.000 is a lot of money but a 30 year principle over it..
You are not hurting the Royal British Legion with this 30 year principle. The money goes to Ex-service personnel and their families that have been affected by conflict and the vast majority now I would think, to those much younger than your 35 year grudge and was it their fault your business was affected by the R.B.Legion. Enjoy your freedom to make your choice to hold a grudge against them that gave.
Remembering is all year round, I certainly do not forget my friends but the poppy and Remembrance Day is about making sure remebrance of the final sacrifice is carried on and the poppy is a symbol of that remembrance. Wear it with pride.
I hope to get down and help Dave as well next weekend, he and others put a lot of time into seeing the Dover Field of Remembrance is just right and the sale of wreaths and poppies goes ahead..
