Didn't see many Muslims observing a minutes silence today on TV.

They were laughing silently. I was in Sousse about 30 years ago. It was a shithole. It was the first and only time I have ever seen a scrum in the airport departures lounge to board the plane out.
Did you see many Muslims *not* observing the silence on TV?
To be fair, there's been very little coverage of the 28 Shia slaughtered in the Kuwait mosque at the same time.
I was in Sousse a couple of years ago. It was as lovely and interesting a place as the entire rest of the country.
Oh, sorry, I forget... There WAS a total and utter shithole bit of Sousse... Port El-Kantaoui. That really was nothing but godawful package- holiday hotels and concrete everywhere. Dire, simply dire. Could have been anywhere in the world.
I think you lost Harry about there.

no-one in our office did anything special

I idly wonder about the ethnic mix in TUI's head office... in Luton... where the observance of the silence was covered extensively...

TUI's UK head office, then...
Well around here they did. I actually forgot about it, to my shame. Brian
Were you there trying to sell fire extinguishers or were you on holiday?
I have traveled extensively in the Middle East and North Africa. Not Sousse however.
As I said.
