JUST a quick line to say how surprised I was to find that in Templars Square shopping centre, I couldn’t find a shop that sold poppies.

I eventually got two at the Coventry Building Society in Between Towns Road.

They were putting up the Christmas decorations but I couldn’t understand why there were no poppies for Armistice Day.
