Accurate much? I actually laughed when I found this! I have been living in the UK for a little bit more than a year now, and I am constantly surrounded by Brits (obviously) and their politeness. I can say that I have been in situations where I have witnessed these British ways of not sounding ‘impolite’ or ‘rude’, if I can phrase it like that! As much as it amuses me, I prefer when people don’t beat around the bush. Being straightforward saves so much and stress, in my opinion!
May not apply in Scotland, where manners went the way of the Dodo some time around 1980.
