Poppy Wreath, Remembrance Day

On Remembrance Sunday I laid a poppy wreath at the local War Memorial, on behalf of the Community Council.

Today is of course Armistice Day. It’s the 102nd anniversary of the end of the Great War at 11 am.

Dunfermline War Memorials for Remembrance Day

Posted on 11 November 2012 by Katrina

The World War 1 Memorial is situated just to the south of Dunfermline Abbey.

The Second World War Memorial is set into the south wall of Dunfermline Abbey grounds. Smaller and more secluded than the WW1 Memorial.

I live in the east of Scotland, not from choice. After 30 years here it still doesn't feel like home. Hence the name of my blog. West is still best as far as I am concerned. I used to work in libraries, I'm now retired. I have two grown up 'boys'. I'm interested in books, films, art, crafts, cooking, politics, museums and travelling around Britain.
