Remembrance Sunday

Spot the posh poppies at the Cenotaph in central London today worn by Sophie, Countess of Wessex, and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge. Are they sharing a private joke on this sombre occasion or merely smiling to look pretty for the photographers? I'm glad to see that the BBC News slide show includes a photo from Malta, where my father served during WW II (CLICK). The George Cross Island tends to be ignored.
