Hi, I'm not a sweetheart, just a regular poster, and hope you don't mind me intruding in this section. I guess I am here because I would like to ask something of you - could you please join/support your local British Legion club.
Yesterday was my Dad's funeral and the support shown to my Mum, my family and myself by the Legion was terrific, even though it is over fifty years since Dad served. Dad was a member ofthe Legion for most of his life and we had innumerable family parties at our loca clubs. Not only that, but my Dad organised the Poppy Appeal in latter years and sat on the board of his local club.
He often used to say to me that he would love more younger members as otherwise the clubs are going to die out with their old members and that they needed some, "young blood" to make them more fun.
If you would like to read about the support our family was given yesterday, then please have a look at my last post here.
Many thanks for taking the time to read and, once again, sorry for any intrusion.
