Remembrance

[Ma'am]

Did the weekly shop in Morrisons this morning and the store fell silent at 11 o'clock for 2 minutes.

Went outside at 11am, it's nice to be alone out of the office to think clearly and reflect properly.

Remember and respect those who died and those who lived.

I took time out to today to remember those who fought for us. I post this picture every year in these threads, he was my grandad I'm proud of him and what he did for others. Love you Grandad.

Love you Grandad.

That made me well up

I would post a picture of the clock tower in Hereford surrounded by wreaths but I'm at work at the moment.

It's a picture of every serving SAS soldier that has died in combat

Our office fell slient for 2 mins.......

Was very nice

As did my office - the silence felt really strange when you're so used to hearing background noise.

2 minute silence at school. I'm glad everyone was quiet, nice to have a moment to reflect.

I blogged just now, I'm sorry, I couldn't help it: http://sarawallen.blogspot.com/2009/11/lest-we-forget.html

I remember shedding tears hearing the last post (which I realise in the blog I put as Last Stand, ooops) at the Menin Gate on a school battlefields trip to Ypres when I was 14.

Everyone should do that trip, if not as a kid, then as an adult.

It's all just a big, big shame, still now as much as it was back then.

We had our parade out here in Musa Qala on the 8th. Had our own 2 minute silence at 11am UK time in the RAP.

We will remember them.
