Remembrance in your home town

Some of our poppy displays here at Polesworth Abbey, all ready for our Service of Remembrance at 10am then outside at the Memorial at 11am followed by the Procession and our shortened Communion Service.  Decided to keep the choir anthem at the Remembrance service simple and easy to listen to this year..... Look At The World - John Rutter.

Not sure what's going on in my town but at my grand daughters boarding school they have made a cascade of poppies coming from the 1st floor window above the main entrance. There is a poppy for every pupil who is at the school this year.

They have also made wooden crosses with a metal poppy on top, 1 for each of the 17 former pupils who never returned from WWI, some of them were only 15 years of age. 

We are off there tomorrow for the parade and service.

 I'm in work myself on Sunday😒 , but there's always a service & parade at the parish church for Remembrance Sunday .... both my kids have in the past been the guard at the Cenotaph (Sea Cadets) Be there early if you intend going. 

Church was absolutely packed this morning for the Remembrance Service at Polesworth Abbey.  So many people had to stand at the back.  The good news, is that, as organist, I am guaranteed a seat....   😀😀😀😀
