      Well I am old now but it was common to stand up when a teacher or for that matter when anyone entered the room .It is a sign of respect for the other person and one must say "won't you sit down? and when they are seated and comfortable, proffer them a glass of sherry no matter what time of day it is .Also hand write thankyou notes.
      Consider others before your self .

      Manners are sadly missing in today’s society I believe it comes from the home. We were taught to stand up in a tram or train for the elderly and pregnant women. Maybe teaching manners in schools, would be a good thing ✅

Even those silly people who didn't know or understand what they were doing voting Brexit - if only they had known Joanna cleans her own toilets and knew all about Europe and how she went there in the 60's and it had all moved on. So thrilling she goes to Waitrose - so do I! So thrilling, thrilling.

    Ms. Lumley is a delight and her comments are insightful. We need to hold onto these values because I don't know where this new generation is going. Or maybe it's just my age talking (50's). I don't know what society will value in 100 years. But, I really see that this mode of politeness and respect is dwindling.

      X2Magneto: How would you let someone interview themselves. Like how is she not interviewing herself?
