Frazer1974 Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 From this morning (Saturday), the Stannington Branch are selling them every day from 9am-9pm at Tesco on Infirmary Road and Morrisons on Penistone Road. Other branches are also selling in other areas, but not sure when/where, and there are also unmanned boxes throughout the S6 area. Please dig deep - it's for a good cause! http://www.royalbritishlegion.org.uk/ or try our own website... http://www.stannington.legionbranches.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeremyjh1 Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 This is not a 'troll' (whatever that is ). It is a genuine question - what does it mean to you, personally? Do you think about the futility and tragedy of war? Do you think about the peace [signed on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month]? Do you see it as remembering ALL fallen soldiers in all wars? (It is, after all, focussed on the signing on the peace that ended WWI). Do you care about it all? If so, why? If not, why not? Personally, I see it as remembering the fallen of WWI (not of all wars) - it uses the 11/11/11 as the reason (see above). Any peace that it signified died in '39, just over 2 decades later. I am in awe at those who fought and died, but I struggle with the overall pointlessness of it all. Stories of thousands dying in battles that claimed a few feet. There is nothing glorious about the futile waste of so many young men and women on both sides. If anything, it is a sombre reflection of how clearly we could not live together in peace and, sadly, it seems, despite being taught history at school, we don't seem to learn.

cressida Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 It means showing respect for the soldiers who died trying to save our country from invasion. I can never forget the day anyway as it was my mother's birthday, her father used to call her the princess of peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
