Remembrance Day and as dour a day as it seems usually to be. We're still at home when the television takes us by surprise at 11 o'clock wit Remembrace observances. Two years go we were in Waterloo Station as people came to a stop for two minutes. Now the news shows buse and cabs a well as pedestrians stopped for the silence. We're wearing Canadian Legin poppies from Canada House. They're noticeably different from the British ones - brilliant red with a felted surface as opposed to a muted red paper with a green leaf.
Alexander texts with a suggestion that we meet Monday for a meal.r
