ask the aberdeen fans....

In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields.

may be wrong forum but... and for those who wish disagree there is another thread on non-ict you can post on. it's coming near the time when those who fought for us and lost their lives over the years should be remembered with dignity. "Please wear a poppy," the lady said And held one forth, but I shook my head. Then I stopped and watched as she offered them there, And her face was old and lined with care; But beneath the scars the years had made There remained a smile that refused to fade. A boy came whistling down the street, Bouncing along on care-free feet. His smile was full of joy and fun, "Lady," said he, "may I have one?" When she's pinned in on he turned to say, "Why do we wear a poppy today?" The lady smiled in her wistful way And answered, "This is Remembrance Day, And the poppy there is the symbol for The gallant men who died in war. And because they did, you and I are free - That's why we wear a poppy, you see. "I had a boy about your size, With golden hair and big blue eyes. He loved to play and jump and shout, Free as a bird he would race about. As the years went by he learned and grew and became a man - as you will, too. "He was fine and strong, with a boyish smile, But he'd seemed with us such a little while When war broke out and he went away. I still remember his face that day When he smiled at me and said, Goodbye, I'll be back soon, Mom, so please don't cry. "But the war went on and he had to stay, And all I could do was wait and pray. His letters told of the awful fight, (I can see it still in my dreams at night), With the tanks and guns and cruel barbed wire, And the mines and bullets, the bombs and fire. "Till at last, at last, the war was won - And that's why we wear a poppy son." The small boy turned as if to go, Then said, "Thanks, lady, I'm glad to know. That sure did sound like an awful fight, But your son - did he come back all right?" A tear rolled down each faded check; She shook her head, but didn't speak. I slunk away in a sort of shame, And if you were me you'd have done the same; For our thanks, in giving, if oft delayed, Thought our freedom was bought - and thousands paid! And so when we see a poppy worn, Let us reflect on the burden borne, By those who gave their very all When asked to answer their country's call That we at home in peace might live. Then wear a poppy! Remember - and give

political or not i am more than happy to give a pound or 2 to help make the lives of those who gave up theirs to enable me to live in a free country. it may be political in some aspects but these young men give up their lives for us selflessly and i admire them for that. poppyscotland is a charity and yes maybe more money should come from the government but you could say that about cancer research charities and many others too. i agree with you 100% The charity was set-up before the NHS came into existence so while politicians are not entirely blameless......................................................... ........................ who can blame them? Whats the NHS got to do with it. The Earl Haig Fund strives to provide those inflicted by war a reasonable standard of life after their injuries are treated. The government are the ones who should be doing this through better pensions, improved social and welfare care etc. I work for a company who, through their pension scheme, will provide for my health and welfare, and that of my family, should I be injured to the point of being unable to work while in their service. Shouldn't Servicemen not expect the same from their employer? wish mine did...

READ MA FECKIN LIPS! STILL EARLY DAYS. Get off his back and let him get on with it. Early days - he has been Mr Jekyll and Mr feckin Hyde fer over a feckin year now, pissed off many a player and many a fan with his schizophrenic tactics. Just co ya feel sorry fer him in his personal life does not mean that you cant have a go at him cos he is ballsing it up on the pitch. Get real and stop erselicking the mods. The Fat Slags can look after themselves. hope there's nothing in there that us ladies could take offence to howdy... :thumb04:

It's supposed to be out in a few days.... anyone know anything about it?

believe it or not i haven't had time to check any out yet but will be over the weekend hopefully... leaning to the SE 902 thingy one though.... is that good or bad? :003:
