  Here in France it's a National holiday and the silence is quite awesome.

    Remembrance Sunday seems to be the more commemorated day here which is why I always do mine on the Day.
    I did see your lovely tribute!
    I think that it should be a national holiday here as well! xx

      The first year we moved out here we observed Remembrance Sunday. Days later my daughter's went out distributing some leaflets (first thing on the 11th) and were seriously chastised by the locals and had to stop there and then.
      
      They soon realised how seriously the French take it!
