people apologise so much in this country.
i was just in the kitchen in work, getting some water, and there was some woman waiting quite a way behind me for the water cooler. as i was turning to leave, i accidentally hit my foot on the counter, and she apologised to me!
"sorry"
sorry for what exactly? sorry for making me kick the counter just by being in the same room? WTF?
for the record, she didn't look like a battered wife or anything. i think she was just ultra-british.
