Have been trying to get a poppy since Monday. Tried the usual locations around Liverpool Street station but nothing there. What's going on?

Probably all scared of getting stabbed or having their faces burnt off.

A lady came to my door with the usual big box selection. Every pub around my way seems to have a similar box too.

Just use one from before.
I've had mine 10 years now and only paid 1p for it.
Bargain.

I always donate but I never wear one.
You don't need to wear a poppy to show respect and give thanks.

The bloke who normally sits at the bottom of the escalators isn't there this year.
If you really want a poppy, go to one of the receptions in one of the big office buildings near Liverpool St. They always have them there.

He was in a mobility scooter, so could only get away very slowly.

About 85% of men in Lloyd's are wearing poppies. For some reason, it's only about 40% for ladies.

I have a West Ham poppy badge this year.
13th Ballion Regt
West Ham pals
Up the Hammers
with a poppy over the club badge.
My old man got it for me in Upminster somewhere I think.

Obligatory for men. Optional for women depending on sartorial considerations.

I prefer a poppy over the badge on account that I keep lossing then so have to buy more, which is more money for the charity.
Couple of old boys selling then at waterloo tonight. Businesses is brisk.

defjam,
Would you be interested in selling it? I'll pay 5p, which is a massive increase on your initial investment.
