It was one of her lifelong dreams to visit London, and she certainly knows more about the city than I do. She arrived at lunchtime and we spent a tiring afternoon going round the Tower of London. However, by 5 o'clock 1 couldn't help noticing that she didn’t seem as enthusiastic as she had been earlier. I asked if 7 anything was wrong and she said, ‘This is all very interesting but where is the fog and where are the men in bowler hats? Why did everyone push to get on the bus at the bus stop instead of making a queue? It’s very different from the books I've read about England.” Her comments made me think. It's true that people don’t queue much any more: nowadays you often find that everyone just jumps on the bus. Or maybe this is only in London. Also the idea of a man standing up and offering his seat to a woman on a train or bus is unusual these days, although my father still does it, ‘As for the weather: well, we all know that a hundred years ago there used to be fog all year round in London, but we no longer have much fog; nowadays we have pollution from all the cars! Over the last few years in the summer London has been one of the hottest places in Europe, although we still get more than enough rain in the other seasons. ‘What about the city men in their working ‘uniform’? Well, you can still see some city ‘gents’ in their smart suits, but men hardly ever wear bowler hats. A few things don’t change, though. If you try to start a conversation with an English person on the underground in London, she oF he will probably look at you as if you are mad! ‘a. Everything was as she expected it to be, People don't queue as much as they used to. Men used to give up their seats to women on public transport Itstill rains a lot in winter.
