So I probably go through at least 6 Poppies each and every year (although there have been years where I went into double digits) so it came as no surprise this morning when I looked down and it was gone.
However, I did set my personal best time this morning...less than 1 mintue.
I walked out of the St. Lawrence Market and bought one and attached it to my hoody. I proceeded to walk across the street and as I got inside the south building I thought to myself "self, you should attach that Poppy better before you lose it already". When I looked down it was gone, vanished, adios, farewell...all in less than one minute.
Finished shopping and bought another one on my way out.

Oh I always used to lose mine, too. I started putting the back of an earring up on the pin + bending it = pretty secure.

after putting it through the back wrap a piece of tape around the pointy end like six or seven times.
That way it cant get back through the hole and you wont ever poke yourself.
