A Poppy in Rememberance

At a petrol station in Abu Dhabi today I was asked by the girl behind the counter what my poppy was for, so I told her. I asked where she was from, and she said Nepal, I asked do you know the Gurkahs? She smiled proudly and said 'yes of course'. I said in Great Britain we wear if for them also. She was very pleased and said thankyou.
