I bought a Poppy from Gunner George yesterday. Last year he raised £6,278.42 for the Poppy Appeal.
Why did this bring to mind the old fashioned curiosity shops (something of a dying breed) featured in Philip Woolway’s photography at ShopCurious? Curiously, amidst all the clutter of one such junk shop, stands a rather forlorn looking portrait of David Beckham. The image is called A Time for Heroes.
It’s good to remember who the real heroes are... lest we forget.
Will you?

I'm sure David B would be the first to agree with your sentiment Susan.
Have a good weekend!
I agree, Jan - David B isn't the best example, as he does have a skill and has become something of an ambassador for UK Inc/charity causes etc. But the whole celebrity culture thing drives me nuts - today's celebrity 'heroes' are largely untalented and unworthy.
PS Society's values (and valuation of people and things) have changed beyond belief over the past 50 years.
David Beckham's just awesome!!!
Well done, Gunner George!!
