2 MINUTES SILENCE...........11.58 this morning......

[swiperfox]

For London.

[WideWebWitch]

Thanks for reminding me.

[expatinscotland]

Is it for the entire UK as well?

[swiperfox]

Yes, sorry, i meant it's for the London bombings.....

[gothicmama]

they want peopel not just to be silent as a mark of respect but to do it publicly as an act of defiance (towards people who want to use terror to promote their cause)

[expatinscotland]

We are planning to step outside for the 2 minutes.

[KBear]

The whole of Europe is joining us.

[QueenOfQuotes]

I'll try to do it - going to be tricky though - it's lunchtime for the boys and I've got one of DS1's friends over for lunch too [frown]

The last time we had a silence, DS chose that exact moment to sing something, I can't remember the song now but it was a really funny one!

[Angeliz]

i like that gothicmama!

I wonder how they'll cope with that in nurseries. I suppose they don't even try??

[lemonice]

It's a pity it's not also for victims of terror everywhere..

[snafu]

That would be an achievement beety.

[KBear]

I think most people will think of everyone caught up in terror and war all over the world as well as thinking of those in London.

[swiperfox]

it would be lovely if there were no posts at all for the entire two minutes wouldn't it? wonder if it'll happen??

[swiperfox]

exactly beety. They don't know/understand why they have to be quiet and tbh i don't expect them do.

I've got 2 young lads in the front room servicing trhe boiler and making noise so if they aren't out in 3 minutes i'm just going to go stand in the garden
