dubs Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 The Lady Haig Poppy Factory at Powderhall makes and sells them. Not too expensive either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Son Of Anarchy Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 I just got back from contalmaison and it was the most humbling experience of my life,truely awesome. If you visit Thiepval first,the shop there sells the little wooden crosses with the poppy in the middle (only costs a donation) that you can write on. I laid one at contalmaison at the weekend. Enjoy the trip mate, I cant wait to go back. Just a mile or so down the road there is a great wee cafe full of memorabilia of the war in la bossiels (wrong spelling).
