We had a Remembrance service at school on Friday. We usually have it on Armistice Day itself, but as this year it falls on a Sunday the school felt it was still important for the children to come together in an act of worship.
More than one member of staff has relatives (sons, brothers a daughter) in the Forces, so it is an emotionally charged time for them.
We'll be observing the two minutes silence of course.
This time last year I was working in Boots and we switched our tills off and stood in silence. It was very touching how many shoppers stopped what they were doing too. Some still carried on, although they weren't talking I suppose...
