Hi i also feel some find it to hard to remember and just carry on going about there day as they do, maybe too close to home for them to do so, which is a shame also. As long as they are not doing it deliberatly Lilxx

I certainly had to bite my tongue.....

I've generally found peeps to be respectful but would find it difficult if they werent, Caz xxx

Same thing happened in Morrisons yesterday when I was shopping. I was just at the checkout with my trolley when the 2 minute silence started; everybody was still, silent, apart from one ignorant so-and-so who was more worried about getting his two large cases of Stella Artois onto his trolley and telling his other half to phone a taxi.

Claire i think it,s down to the person and there choice, you cannot force people to do things they dont want too, and quite rightly so, i did observe the 2 mins out of respect for all them that did not have a choice. Lilxx

I would have felt like shushing them if fact I would have---done it before.

yes I walked into our local supermarket just as the silence began and 2 people older than me walked in oblivious to it all and was weaving through the stationary shoppers.

While we were shopping yesterday,,the 2 miniutes silence was announced and everthing stopped,,,apart from two women old enough to know better,,weaving in and out of stationary silent shoppers,,chatting away about bloody 'on the vine tomatoes'... There were groups of teenagers observing the silence,,,small children stood with ther parents ,,and these two oblivious to it all.. I was disgusted,
