Remembrance Day Poppies & The Angel of the North


Today is the 11/11 Remembrance Day, When we remember all the servicemen who died for their country.
This year it was decided to plant 888,246 ceramic poppies in the dry moat of the Tower of London, one poppy for each of the 888,246 British & Commonwealth Servicemen who were killed in WW1.

The reaction to this display has taken everybody by surprise, going to prove that they will never be forgotten.

Carrying on with my theme of unusual happenings in Britain, on our recent trip to England we came upon this huge statue - The Angel of the North.

Its quite something.
