[Margaret Pilkington]

In some respects you are right.....I can choose not to watch programs that contain bad language (and I do choose not to watch)......I can't choose what people in public spaces do, but I would hope that they would be courteous enough to bear in mind that not everyone wishes to listen to their conversation, and either turn down the volume or use more moderate language......but I contend that it is still a situation where over the years people have accepted that bad language is something they can do nothing about. I can only lead by example. And yes..... I am a product of the era in which I was raised, and the manner I was educated and brought up. Something I make no apology for, and have no wish to change.
