Default Poppy

Just been cleaning one of "my graves" in Tickenham Church - its the only one in the churchyard. The churchyard itself is a mass of wildflowers and some pretty weeds - but strangely the only poppy in the churchyard was here...

I wonder if a relative at some point in the past placed one on the grave stone.

That thought had occurred to me Mike and it’s also given me an idea - I might invest in a packet of seeds!
