Swedes are very much the same though. And I do the ‘moving the bag on my knees thing when I want to get off the bus!
These were my favourite! I am a tea addict so I recognise them all!

I move my bag before my stop, too. Unfortunately, my fellow Americans don’t pay attention…
LOL, when the passenger beside me does not do a reciprocal shuffle to show they saw me signalling I would be getting off, I start to panic that I may have to speak to them!
Oh! The horror!
It certainly is rue of us Brits. It’s comforting to know we are not the only nut cases in the world.
Thank you for sharing, Janet!
I think these Very British Problems can be applied anywhere in the world. Especially the “touching your bag” that is a common attitude. A variant is “taking your car/house keys out before getting off the public transport” as if your door would suddenly materialize in front of you. It always makes me laugh seeing people do it.
