Poppy sellers

[Butcher's Coat]

I always like to get one of the metal badges each year. Is there any poppy sellers in the town at the minute that's selling them?

There's a stall selling stuff that you want outside of the Station, opposite Spec Savers marra.

Don’t buy them via mail order from RBL. Well, fill your boots if you like being pestered from charity canvassing phone people, letters and every other form of nagging

Only if you’re daft enough not to untick the marketing boxes.

I bought two Passchendaele centenary poppies last year and haven’t heard a peep from them.

I paid 80p for a lovely metal one in 1983
Still got it
Saved me a fortune down the years

Easter is already permanently banned because the word resurrection is too similar to erection and it will offend pele

That's semi hard to believe

sooner and sooner every year.

This year is special, 100 years. It also falls on a Sunday

If you do buy one, make sure you buy one from an actual Poppy seller or from the RBL itself.
These knock off Poppies will more than likely give nothing to the RBL.

My two year old asked why they were called sellers as it sounds a bit too much like fellas and that he was outraged. We now call them gender neutral poppy people who offer for sale charity remembrance items.

That is probably not that far from happening.

Sounds like a job for Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon...

This is James McClean's favorite time of the year.

When else does he get so much attention?

Yes, i am aware of that, and in my previous post i wasn't having a dig at the men who died in the wars or those wars since.

 

[OOOSH YEAH]

You can get them on aliexpess from China. Miles cheaper as well

I never thought for one minute you were, just stating some info but you already knew.

Always put money in the tin but never take a poppy.

I assume some will be outraged that I don’t wear one but that’s one of the freedoms we have.

No worries, to be honest with you, maybe its been these years of remembering the first world war, where i have thought maybe its got Sooner, the poppy's seem to be back out again or other such things, maybe when we return to normal service in 2019, maybe it will correct itself, if you know what i mean.

The Poppy Appeal never closes

And only ever gets ‘public’ two weeks afore armistice

 

[Slow joe]

Don't think I've worn one since school so 23yrs ago. Make a donation like.

 

[Mainze]

Kids are too hip now to wear them, rather stab each other in the streets.
