Wearing your Poppy

The green leaf should be pointing upward to the figure 11 (imagine a clock dial).   This is because 2 minutes silence should be observed at 11am on the 11th day of the 11th month.    This is to remember our brave heroes.

That's a point, I haven't come across anyone selling poppies in my town. I normally buy one from my workplace, but can't this year as I'm working from home.
