Remembrance: It's that time of year again.

For those of you who have served or have a connection with our UK forces and would like to reflect it in your Facebook, Twitter or other places, can I remind you that there are a fairly large number of poppy avatars, like that below,  available on this blog?



If you would like one, all you need to do is go to a search engine and search on:

Vic the Vicar  poppy (regiment, service or branch name). That above can be found by entering the search criteria:

Vic the Vicar poppy RAChD

You just choose whatever you want and it should be there - if not, add a comment and I'll create one for you. (once you've found it, right-click and 'save as' - you can use it wherever you wish)

Wearing a poppy with pride

It's time for me to point people towards the (ever growing) collection of poppy images that can be used as avatars on Facebook, Twitter and so many other places.

There are all poppies with cap badges, branches and even cadet forces too and by using them during the time when we remember those who have gone. we do this especially through the observance of All Saints, All Souls, Remembrance Sunday, Armistice Day and other events; marking the passing of those who have departed this life and paying our respects to them. It is in the doing of this that we echo Binyon's words 'We Will Remember Them' in a tangible and obvious manner.

So for those who would like a poppy with a badge all you need to do is:

Google Vic the Vicar + Avatar + the name (i.e. Royal Signals or ATC or hussars) and you should find the badge you want.

If you cannot find the badge then add a comment to this blog and I will add it to the collection as quickly as I can.

A new addition to the poppies this year has been one for those who wish to honour the dead (by the way - 'Glorious' means they are in glory - it is not glorifying war) and draw attention to the lives lost through the actions of the Islamic State (IS) - because 'Never Again' means exactly that:




Please wear a poppy to support those who have served the cause of peace and justice throughout the years and have served to protect our land and uphold, and observe, the various conventions that protect the weak and oppressed.
