The silent silence

So, the nation fell silent at 11am. Everywhere that is except where I work. Our building contractors were meant to make an announcement over the voice address system to start and end the silence. Except that they forgot and when they realised that hadn’t made the announcement the moment had passed.

How could they forget? Isn’t it 11am at the same time every day? I have lodged a complaint, but unfortunately it is too late now.

We will remember them, and we did, despite the forgetfulness of others.
