Once in a lifetime

We just observed 2 minutes' silence on the streets of London. Every voice, every car silent. People came out of shops and offices and lined the streets, and it sounds cheesy - people were sad but not scared.

I was a bit cynical about it before I went downstairs, but hearing almost nothing in Soho really made me feel what it all meant. It's difficult to describe.

The guys at Randall and Aubin, the restuarant downstairs, obviously forgot that there was to be silence, so the only (very quiet) sound was "Lady in my Life" by Michael Jackson. Not really appropriate but a great song.
