Our Poppy Has Arrived

[boxtops]

Our poppy arrived on Friday. It's beautiful. Just a word of caution - I hadn't realised that the box it arrived in is actually part of its display - photos etc are printed inside the box. Open with great care!

I use photobucket for my photos on here

Well we have tried but can't get the photo from the iPad to the ab link sorry. Boxtops - I am sure I read somewhere that two people had paid to sponsor the extra poppies which will tour the country and then be on permanent display at the Imoerial War Museum.

The Government has pledged £500,000 to help fund the tour of the poppies, which will run until 2018, with added donations from the Backstage Trust and the Clore Duffield Foundation.

Margo, you have to upload your photo to photobucket or tinypic, then cut and paste the link of the photo onto here.....

Just checked the delivery status of my two poppies. They will be despatched Jan-Feb. I hope that's wrong and that they will, fingers crossed, arrive before Christmas.

Like you janbee I'm not expecting mine to arrive before January but I can hope.

Thanks for the tip - I'll have to make sure I get to it before my other half. He tends to just rip things open. :-)

Mine has just arrived too - it said Delivery expected Jan/Feb 2015 so I think they must have just been saying that to cover themselves. I'm really pleased with it. The box, certificate and booklet all beautifully done.
