Not remembering= a hosing

This is a bit of an optical illusion for me. It looks like the "lest we forget" bits are from the inside of the extinguisher, and that a rectangle has been cut out of the front.

I’d also be interested if someone could pinpoint the year they started going overboard with the whole Remembrance thing. It’s probably unfair to single out Rangers. The English teams have went similarly nuts this last while.

In pretty certain you're right - there is a rubber gasket around the cut out part to cover the sharp edges I'm sure.  I wouldn't be surprised if that grass is real grass - maybe from Wembley 1977!

I've a couple on order - I'll let you know when they arrive if I'm right.

No political opportunism here at all. "Just happened to be passing, lads"

 

Is that that lad from the Tories? I always thought he was an oaf, but he can’t be all bad if he’s selflessly visiting factories and smiling at poppy people. He’s got my vote!

Well, he would have if I lived up North.

They have, hence the black framing to stop people from cutting themselves on the edging when they inevitably reach their hand inside.
