Jacksgranda Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 3 hours ago, Shotgun said: WWI was considered to be the 'War to End Wars.' People were saddened and angered about the millions who'd been sent to the slaughter, to a large extent, for no good reason. The sentiment at the time was that we must never forget those who had given their lives and why, in order that we don't allow it to happen again. So that worked out well. Doesn't mean to say it wasn't a worthwhile sentiment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin_Nevis Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Nemanja Matic explaining why he chooses not to wear one, resulting in plenty of gammony headsgones on the FB page comments. Apparently living in a city being bombed to f**k by NATO isn't an acceptable reason. Matic poppy pish 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But one which has been trampled by countless politicians with the unquestioned support of the poppy fetishists. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacksgranda Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 I'm not denying that either. I'm sure many people still hold to fervently hoping it never happens again, without going poppy crazy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scary Bear Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Has anyone on here bought a poppy this year? The last couple of years, I haven’t bothered, what with all the COVID stuff and lockdowns happening. No doubt there’s a tasteful poppy face mask I could have purchased, but here we are. I did sponsor the lad on Facebook - Chris Walks the UK - who is walking the coastline of the UK to raise funds for the SSAFA and is at £250k. https://www.ssafa.org.uk 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

resk Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 The poppy bride is pretty tidy TBF. I'd happily sign up for months in a stinking waterlogged trench surrounded by corpses and jobbies, getting chewed by lice and rats and shelled out of my mind, before being sent over the top to walk slowly towards a hail of German machine gun fire, if I got a go on her in poppy heaven. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edward, the nazi sympathiser, was first in line and George, Lizzie’s father, was only the spare. It wasn’t until Edward abdicated in 1938 that Lizzie would become a realistic heir to the throne. Although she would have literally been 3rd in line for the throne and a generation younger than number one and two so it wasn't totally unlikely 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
