Day 26 #30DaysWild: Poppies

We actually achieved one of my #30DaysWild list yesterday! Lincoln Castle is currently privileged to be host to Poppies:Wave by artist Paul Cummins and designer Tom Piper.  The sweeping arch of red poppy heads, presented by 14-18 NOW, marks the centenary of the First...

Day 24 and 25 #30DaysWild: Stickering fun
