I'm glad you enjoyed the walk. <br />I agree: it will be a pity to see the poppies go, but they have doubts as to whether they would withstand frost so I guess it's probably best if they pack them up and send them to all the folk who've bought them before the cold weather sets in. They've been such a roaring success and they've raised a ship load of money for Bonny Bonafillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17735110907048794437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8596160133778885210.post-77282191323861943572014-11-09T03:08:45.803+00:002014-11-09T03:08:45.803+00:00Impressive post.

I like the way you documented the entire walk.<br />We had a pied-a-terre in one of the Barbican Towers, and I used to cycle around there many weekends, so it was great to follow your walk.<br />Not Armistice day is upon us, and there is an argu,ment going on to keep this installation intact and not dismantle it, as planned.<br />joanna ukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18384148993585680645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8596160133778885210.post-75923642119238883662014-08-09T08:21:22.578+01:002014-08-09T08:21:22.578+01:00Thanks, Kim.
