Tower of London Remembers

On my way to Greenwich to see Goldfrapp I made sure to stop off at the Tower of London to see their "Remembers" display of 1000's of ceramic poppies that had been placed in the moat to remember the First World War.

The display is not even nearly finished (with probably tens of thousands more to place) but it's already bloody (pun intended) impressive.

The final total of poppies will be 888,246, one for every British casualty during the First World War.

If you can get there before 11th November, you won't regret it.
