Another opinion - its becoming too much of a topic. Watching the tv in a hotel bar abroad, another British person turned to me and said there is simply too much of it now. The rugby was on at it was England v Argentina. The silence was held there I think (you see I cant even remember I'm becoming immune), it was held at Manchester v Arsenal (very well observed), it was held obviously at the Cenotaph (the prime national focus) and it will be held again nationally tomorrow at 11am GMT.
Multiple times, if you are tuned to the media.
Once, at the Cenotaph, is enough.

Yep, putting my full fearnought and Cromwell hat on again but its too much and is turning it into.....I don't know.....superficial overexposure?

We will remember and we will be made to remember are two different things.
