I do find in London that people are less caring of others, they barge into you without apologising, take up all the pavement yakking so that you have to walk in the road, and often are downright rude. I have found recently that I have been offered a seat on the tube - I must look older than I'd hoped! It struck me the other day, we have bus ticket machines in Central London with a sign that says "Buy tickets before boarding". A while back it would have said "PLEASE buy tickets before boarding". Sign of the times?
