Taking Molly (Mrs B’s dog) for a walk in Marble Hill Park, we enjoyed a walk/run around a parade of oversized poppy’s that have ‘bloomed’ to celebrate Remembrance Day on the 11th November.

On the cycle home, I also made a short detour to photograph the new poppy-themed pedestrian crossing decoration on the Petersham Road adjacent to The Royal British Legion Factory, the place where all the Remembrance Day poppies are made.

COVID restrictions are having a massive impact on the Royal British Legions ability to raise funds . GoodGym runners might like to help out with a donation or a ‘My Poppy Run’:
