I didn't expect any other alternative Remmie and I also accept that it is a British issue and hence the reaction.
I can also see what you are saying about the totting up of minutes and you may well have a point.
Do you see what I am saying about an unbalanced reaction though, in that the whole country will stop for two minutes but don't bat an eyelid if it's not over here?
