Yesterday I took my step-son and step-niece with me when returning the left-over poppies to the office at the local Veterans & Seamens' Society building. All around the walls are photographs of seamen and ships, so they began asking "who is that" to which I had to give the name and add "he's dead". This went on for a while and they asked, "where is your picture?"
My answer: "I refused to allow my picture to go up because everyone who gets their picture on the wall dies".
