How sad, I lived in your Country for nearly 6 years in the 70's, when I worked for ARCO and was always totally impressed with the way your younger people were so polite to their elders. Just this week I was with a friend in Suffolk at a very up market hotel/pub. There was obviously a function for the local USAF base starting up as we arrived. A very polite Officer parted the throng, got us to the bar urging everyone to 'stand aside coming through'. After we'd bought our drinks two very smart young men stood gave up their seats by the fire.We'd inadvertently entered a Private Function by mistake, but were welcomed with warmth and politeness.
We do however largely live in a world of declining standards, where a Dog's love is a refreshing constant value.
