What do you think about Poppy Day?

Armistice Day services took place all around the UK to mark the moment World War 1 officially ended in 1918 and to remember all of those who have lost their lives in conflicts since.

So we want to know what Armistice Day means to you?

Did you take part in any services? Or perhaps you are marking it in some other way?

Do you think it is important to remember the people who have fought and died for the country?

Or do you think it is history and should be left in the past?
