We prepare in advance.

We're not quite as bad as the news presenters (whose 3 week old poppies are now drooping and frayed) but we like to make sure we've got our poppies in advance. We haven't showed up to remembrance without them yet! It's kind of important that Dad has one at least, being the pastor and all...

Yes this is an emergency blip. The weather has been pretty dull. The most outdoorsey thing I've done is help Mum home with some shopping. :P
