Remembrance Day Toronto?

Hey Ma, any chance you, or any other MLU'er would mind mailing me a couple of poppies? I brought a couple down here with me when I moved but they're starting to get a little crumpled. I wear one to all the Remembrance Day events I attend and always get asked questions about the history of the poppy. I'll be driving my C15 in the Fort Worth Veteran's Day parade on the 11th (proudly displaying the Red Ensign and the Engineer's flags!) and then in Waxahachie on the 12th. I'll be reading "In Flanders Fields" to the crowd. Be pleased to reimburse you for any expenses. Thanks! Derek.

Hi Derek,

Have you had any replies/offers of poppies yet?

I don't know that if I sent you some if they'd get there before Nov. 11th from here ... and I also don't know if there would be a problem with the pins parts going through customs??? Will have to find out ... also will have to find some poppies which shouldn't be too hard to do as they're sold all over the place (donations). It would be really hard to find any with the original felt centers though so I could probably only send you the newer versioned ones

What say you?

Ma
