    Remembrance day outrage in Cheltenham.

    I was quite shocked by this, the sheer stupidity of it and the absence of common sense. I have only ever been into Jack Wills once, by mistake and it was selling preppy tat and inflated prices. If you know Cheltenham this shop more or less over looks the war memorial, certainly no more than 50 mtrs away.

    Maybe the shop stock could have been re-arranged, would of kept the shop staff busy tidying it up for a while

    Common sense failure by the Shop staff.
    This should be agony. I should be a mass of aching muscle — broken, spent, unable to move. And, were I an older man, I surely would… But I’m a man of 30 — of 20 again. The rain on my chest is a baptism. I’m born again

    Re: Remembrance day outrage in Cheltenham.

    If I've read this right the service was over apart from a march past (was a band involved?). The shop did not turn the music on until 11.30, on advice from the council, thus respecting the service and the two minutes remembrance.
    Why did people feel it their right to invade the store? Remembrance nazis!

    Oh FFS

    They turned off the music whilst the actual service was going on. After all, it's a two-minute silence, not a 40 minute one. Most of the public respect the need to be quiet at 11 o'clock on Remembrance Day but to expect everyone to do more is unrealistic to say the least.

    I am outraged, I shall never wear my Jack Wills boxers again, even if they are the comfiest undergarments I own.
    One cannot begin to fathom the immensity of the fuck I do not give.
