Took mine off my jacket before bed last night.

I’ve always understood they should be worn from the 1st to the 11th November.

It is still on the black coat I wore to the service on Sunday. At some point I will remove it when I next wear the coat.

We bin ours after the 2 minutes silence at 11am on 11/11. A new one is worn on 1st November each year.

So did I.

Probably at the weekend. I've got 4 - 1 on each of 3 coats, 1 on a scarf

Took mine off my coat this morning.

The 11th was yesterday, so that was the day.

We had a 2 minute silence at my Aquacise class on the hour.

You could have heard a pin drop.

I removed the pin from my jacket, and the dangly bag one this morning before going out.
Been wearing for 10 days.

Weekend for me too.

I will leave this year’s pin on my good jacket all year. I wear it with my veterans badge but only wear that over remembrance weekend and put it away on the twelfth. It goes in a box with my cap badge, DH’s vet badge, his cap badge, and his medals.

Probably by the weekend.
