93?

The Queen went to Richmond yesterday, to visit the Poppy Factory

Brian Richards, who will be making the wreath she will place at the Cenotaph asked why it has to contain exactly 93 poppies. He did not know – and neither did she! But it always does

You can read the full story here and there is another feature on the poppy factory here. Steph’s boyfriend Mark works in the same building [on the upper floor] so he actually got to see HM and take this great picture of her. [Thanks Mark for letting me publish it]
