inishowen Posted 5 November , 2009 Share Posted 5 November , 2009 Hi Pals, I need to get a wreath in Ieper on Friday 6th for the Menin Gate ceremony at 8pm. I see the Ramparts Museum is closed tonight ( where the RBL are temporarily located) Anyone around who can give me a heads up? I'm staying in the Novotel and will check this site later tonight (5th) Many thanks Fearghal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Morgan Posted 5 November , 2009 Share Posted 5 November , 2009 In the past I've always been able to buy a wreath from the Commonwealth War Graves Commission offices in Elverdingsestraat (Street with St. George's Memorial Church on the corner). Walk down there, past the prison and the CWGC offices are on the right. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlotte cardoen-descamps Posted 5 November , 2009 Share Posted 5 November , 2009 Hello, To my knowledge you can obtain a poppy wreath in the Memorial Museum Passchendaele 1917 as well. this is situated in the centre of Zonnebeke but well worth the travel for the museum alone.

Soren Posted 5 November , 2009 Share Posted 5 November , 2009 I believe that Over The Top Tours and The British Grenadier have them, alternately I can meet you tomorrow and take you to the CWGC Office? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
