Hmm. Was thinking about this as I passed the British Royal Legion tent in MH just there. I love the idea of the poppy, a symbol of solemn remembrance, subtle in presentation. I don’t wear them, as I really can’t where I’m from. But the idea, wonderful. But they’ve been corrupted a long time now.

I can take it and I’ll weather it, as it’s my choice. But also, I’m mid 30s now and know the value I bring to the job. I’m just arrogant enough to realise that. So few 22 year olds can feel like that without the support that I make up for with more experience.
