Obviously it is up to him how he does it but if he wants some words, I
have cribbed a few from government and newspaper websites, so how about:
"This is Hastings Rock. It's 11 o'clock.
Today marks 75 years since the end of the Second World War in Europe, VE
Day. Please join with us in a two
minute silence to pay tribute to heroes of the past and present. To
honour the service and sacrifice of the
Second World War generation and reflect on the devastating impact
Covid-19 has had on so many lives across the
world today."
two minutes of silence followed by ...
"This is Hastings Rock"
...cut the stream - Robojock kicks in.

Perhaps it just needs to play a file with 2 minutes of silence. That
way it will be playing something. If the file can be forced to play at
the start, before any requests, that would do it. Jon will know if
this is possible, I'm sure. It might need an announcement at the start
followed by the two minutes, then something like 'This is Hastings
Rock' to mark the end?
I am sorry this is such short notice but I was only reminded about it
by another radio station this morning.

Good idea. Robojock May take some convincing though. Lol. I’m sure--
Jon will be able to over come that.
If not schedule a two minute track of silence. That’ll confuse Robo.

Good idea, but won’t Robojock automatically kick in if there’s
silence? I think he’s been programmed to do that this year, just in
case of DJ tech issues.

I know this is short notice as I have only just realised it is taking
place but are we observing a one minute silence at 11 o'clock
