What I don't like about cities...

I grew up on a small island, I now live in a big city.

Normally I like the city, it's busy, bustling, exciting. But there's one thing that I find increasingly annoying. No one takes turns. They rush off the tube, crushing into narrow doorways, something that would be made so much simpler if people just filtered in turn by turn. It's a logical and simple way of working that shows consideration for their fellow human beings, but they just focus on their destinations and tune out simple considerations that would actually make their journeys easier.

Perhaps it's just me...

Got it in one - Bryan drew us into the crowd scenes at the end of Heart of Empire. The originals are now part of the East Putney Museum of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Comic Art (in other words, they're on the lounge wall).
