Went down to the Tower and was moved by the latest art installation in the moat. Thought I would share it with you.......
If you can get to see it I would recommend it.
The moat is being filled between 1st August and 11th November 2014 with 888,246 ceramic poppies.........
This represents one for each British and Commonwealth solider killed during 'The Great War'
A wave of poppies engulfing visitors.......
The poppies can be purchased with the proceeds going to six of the charities who support servicemen and their families
After visiting we purchased one of the poppies and will be recipients of poppy no 296641when the installation finishes.....
'And at the going down of the sun.....we will remember them'
