I don't know any websites that sell them but if you like I could send however many over in an envelope for whatever you want the donation to be. Or if you're donating locally but not obtaining a poppy I could easily send them for free.
All of my grandfathers proudly fought in the war for several A&SH battalions in WWII and my 2 grandmothers both worked in nurseries and schools - as well as ammunition factories in their spare time. It's always great to relate to sacrifices people were willing to make. Gladly - all of my grandparents survived the war even though it affected both of my grandfather's health greatly later in life.
It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.
