Have we evolved into a narcissistic society, as the media have alleged? Do you think the importance of manners and etiquette is less essential? If you live in a country or regional area, is there more of a community spirit and comrade in your district? I really would love to hear your opinions on this issue so please do share your thoughts.

I think the media has a lot to answer for. Is the world so different or do we just hear more about what is happening. Didn't we get drunk, drive home from the pub, get into fights - 30+ years ago but it didn't make the front page of the papers. There are some nasty people about but the vast majority are good people. Not newsworthy so we don't hear all the good things people do. Lets all dig a little deaper and find the good that people do not keep looking at all the negatives.
