It did not matter whether you were at home and parents' friends were visiting, you were visiting them, or going to church, it always felt like some kind of national event with alarms going off everywhere, didn't it?
You could just be sitting and watching tv/walking down the street like normal, then noise starts up everywhere.

"Oh look it's your aunt that you haven't seen in years/ an old church friend from before you were born/I can't even hear who this is because I'm still in shock over the initial explosions... Why don't you give her a kiss?"
