The DYNAMICS have definately shifted here in the UK. You used to walk past someone if you had a child and they spoke, you walk past someone with an animal and they spoke, normally bollocks but at least they spoke...............every other time you couldn't get a grunt out of people trying to be civil to them.
NOW EVERYBODY talks to you as if their life depended on it.
Maybe this virus will leave this world in a better shape, where we can ALL treat each other the way you would expect to get treated yourself!!!
I make it a must in my life to greet people I meet on the road. Normally I don’t get much of an answer, but it’s true. It seems that it is changing. That would be a nice change...
