    Xmarks dandelion

    Hello folks,

    Just for your information for those of us who like to recognise each other Marie Curie cancer charity produce lovely silk lapel dandelions should you struggle to get one anywhere else. A small donation to them will get you one.

    I'm sorry, I see daffodils but no dandelions.

    Is there a direct link?

    Oh no I saw a dandelion on a lapel today. When I asked a colleague what it was they thought it was the Marie curie badge. A misunderstanding of flower and organisation on mine and his part. I was convince the badge was a dandelion and not a daff but only got a quick glimpse. Maybe the man in question was an xmarker!!!! A thread removal Steve?

    The flower chosen by this charity as its emblem is indeed the daffodil.

    Unfortunately no shortage of real ones in our neighbourhood.
