This has been shining in my eyes for the last 10 minutes whilst the bus driver takes a break.

Having been to Manchester very recently, I can think of bigger things to complain about.
(Not that I have room to talk, being in Blackburn.)
How is your move to the UK going? How do you find it compared to the US?
I love it so much more than the U.S., but I really need to find a job that pays enough to get my wife over here and get my daughter off a tourist visa. But it has only been two weeks.
Anyway, just the fact that, despite the British having a reputation for rudeness, people here are so nice and helpful compared to everyone's "fuck you, I got my own shit going on" attitude in the U.S. We have had so many people, total strangers, help us in one way or another in the past two weeks.
The rudeness comes from London mostly. When you pack people too close together, they tend to develop a bunch of social rules, to keep sane. Those rules are unspoken and dynamic. That also cause an impressive reaction when you break them by mistake. It's quite common worldwide, but London it particular about them.
Once you're clear of the big smoke, and get a feel for the lingo and etiquette, we are actually quite a friendly bunch.
