Default I like it!

Wow Rick I really like your Chevy, I want one!! There is no doubt that taking a vehicle on Poppy Day really helps collect money as folk are drawn to the vehicles and almost are rewarding your effort by buying poppies, which is great.You also meet loads of folk you wouldn't otherwise have met.

We assisted in the sale of a lot of Poppys and will do it again next year. It was a well regarded outing which pleased many people. The number of poppy sales was certainly up on last year as a result of our presence.

Regards Rick.
