"Hello, good morning, good afternoon, good evening, thank you, goodbye, have a nice day, it's a bit cold today, how are you, has it been busy today, have a good weekend, all used to exchange pleasantries with people including bus drivers as appropriate. Some of them though they do get out of the wrong side of bed and can't be bothered with any pleasantries at all." I would give you the time of day. Cost nothing manners ![]() | |||

"Definitely in Liverpool. I think it's a northern thing. Most southerners are up their own arse" Nope we're not and every passenger on the buses I travel on thank the driver. I thought northeners were supposed to be friendly | |||
"Definitely in Liverpool. I think it's a northern thing. Most southerners are up their own arse" I’m surprised northerners are able to access the bus, what with that massive chip they carry around on their shoulders. | |||
"Definitely in Liverpool. I think it's a northern thing. Most southerners are up their own arse Nope we're not and every passenger on the buses I travel on thank the driver.

"Definitely in Liverpool. I think it's a northern thing. Most southerners are up their own arse" Talk about stereotyping! | |||
"Definitely in Liverpool. I think it's a northern thing. Most southerners are up their own arse" Do the buses in Liverpool keep the wheels attached when it pulls into bus stops? | |||
"London is not the entirety of the South. " Exactly. 😊 Plymouth is friendly overall and the majority are polite on the buses. I've had random chats with people at the stops too. Tend not to talk on the bus, because I need to wear headphones, as I get overstimulated by the noise and have misophonia. Sure, you get the odd arsehole, but that's true anywhere, not just London. I've seen shitty behaviour up north as well. Used to live in Nottingham and boy, there are many of them. | |||

I thought northeners were supposed to be friendly Opinions based on my experiences in London however I can tell you're a nice person by the the fact that you're defending Londoners" The fact that londen has very few true Londoners anymore is probably you feel they are up there own asses The true facts are London is now heaving at the seams with foreign residents that mostly speak broken English at best ![]() | |||
