They look like the classic field poppy to ,e, just teeny becaue as you say there aren't enough nutrients. We had a sea of them the first summer we were here (it was a building site) and they still pop up big in the veg garden and tiny like yours in the gravel drive.

Yes please. 
As if by magic. I've just spotted a poppy in the garden - just leaves, no flowers yet, but I'm quietly confident.
As promised I took a couple of photos earlier of the single poppies that have popped up on waste ground on my plot.
Its hard to tell from my photo with my wind up phone, but they are a similar coloured two tone pink to admins double poppies.

These are growing out of moss that is directly on top of the carpark surface. I'm not sure if they are small just because they are deprived of nutrients, or if they are actually a tiny form of poppy. They are nice though
Think I’ve just found your poppies I’m my wild flower book.

That looks right, thank you
