#PresidentTrump didn’t appreciate the King of #Morocco falling asleep during the ceremony. If looks could kill... I can’t say I blame him. #Macron isn’t a particularly great speaker. But that look #POTUS gave him was priceless #emmanuelmacron #parisfrance #armistice100 #armisticeday #armisticeday2018 #firstlady #flotus #melaniatrump
Great turn out in Kirkcaldy today marking the 100th anniversary of the end of WW1, if you can’t appreciate appreciate what you have today you probably never will...! Thanks so much to my rock @karen_elliot_music “At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, We will remember them”.

Today marks one-hundred years since the end of WWI. I recently had the pleasure of visiting Tyne Cot Cemetery in Flanders. I have never seen a more beautiful or moving corner of a foreign field. May this memorial and days such as today affix in our minds a sobering reminder, to never repeat the events which drove us to such brutality. #armistice100 #armisticeday
With US president Donald Trump sat before him, French president Emmanuel Macron condemned nationalism as the betrayal of patriotism and moral values during a speech to world leaders on Sunday. Trump has proudly declared himself a nationalist. Macron made the remarks during a speech at a ceremony in Paris on Sunday marking 100 years since Armistice Day, the end of World War I. Macron also tweeted out the line from the speech (: Reuters)

‘To honour Armistice Day this year, a number of prominent artists have created a song and video put together from the letters of fallen soldiers, which helps raise money for the Cancer Awareness trust.
Cillian Murphy, Ronnie Wood, Brian Eno, Sinead O'Connor, Imelda May and Nick Mason all teamed up for "One More Yard" by the Evamore project, which sees Murphy, reading spoken word poetry over beautiful, haunting instrumentation by Eno: The Independent.’
Cillian’s voice is amazing and perfect for spoken word and Sinead O Connor delivers with a beautiful performance against the image in the video.

Last weekend Shetland participated in Danny Boyle’s Pages of the Sea. This incredibly moving project saw communities around the country gather on beaches to say goodbye to the millions who left for WW1, many never to return. .
The Shetland beach chosen, one of 32 in the UK, was St Ninian’s Ayre, in the south mainland. Several hundred people attended the event, which was produced by the National Theatre of Scotland with local assistance. During the afternoon, hundreds of silhouettes of soldiers were created in the sand, to be carried away by the incoming tide. Copies of Carol Ann Duffy’s poem, The Wound in Time, were handed out.

Remembrance Sunday
The royal family paid respects at the Cenotaph (a monument to those who gave their lives for their country) during the annual Remembrance Day service.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The Event
At 11 am at ceremonies across the country, the nation observed two minutes of silence. Princes Charles, Harry & William laid wreaths at the monument as Queen Elizabeth & Duchesses Catherine, Meghan & Camilla looked on. Kate & Meghan appeared visibly moved by the service & fought back tears—particularly Kate, who recently learned she had three great-uncles who died in WWI.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In what Express calls “an historic act of reconciliation between the two countries,” a German leader (President Frank-Walter Steinmeier) laid a wreath at the monument for the first time.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What Kate Wore
Kate stunned in a gorgeous, military-inspired Alexander McQueen coat with a high, white collar, red epaulets & silver button accents. She accessorized with Lock & Company’s Abney hat & the Cassandra Goad pearl cluster earrings she wore to Prince Louis’s Christening.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What Meghan Wore
The mum-to-be chose a demure Givenchy coat, a gorgeous velvet hat & Vanessa Tugenthaft’s Precious earrings.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Why The Female Royals Stood On Two Separate Balconies
HM, Kate & Camilla watched the proceedings from the Foreign & Commonwealth Office balcony, while the German First Lady, Elke Büdenbender, joined Meghan in a different spot. In the past, the Duke of Edinburgh has stood beside the Queen, but since the Duke has retired, Kate has “graduated” to his position.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Other Royal Remembrance Events
Last night, the Windsors were out in force at the Festival of Remembrance concert. Later today, they’ll attend a Westminster Abbey service marking the Armistice Centenary.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As you swipe through the photos (particularly the images of Remembrance Day tributes across the country), spend a moment in gratitude for the service men & women who protect & defend your home, wherever it is.
