the 7
I met a man who left off the first digit of the bus number when discussing which service would arrive at the bus stop next with myself and another pedestrian. So, the 14 was the 4, and the 23 was the 3, and so on. He was in high spirits and about to visit a public house in between leaving his bus and arriving home, although he never verbally confirmed what he was going to do. Rather, he implied it with hand movements.

Other topics of conversation among us included:
Smoking (bans and quitting),
New buildings (rumours), and
Reasons to live with your parents ("my boyfriend commited suicide").

Talking in public places is no longer considered usual but it can often be a worthwhile experience.
