"On the rare chance that I take leave so I can go to the shops to buy a present, or renew my licence, I am shocked at how many people are at the shops or generally out and about."
Ditto! When I have a day off and I am spending it rushing like mad doing things I am as well in shock how many people are out there in those shopping centres and elsewhere...last few times I took my Mum to the beach for a coffee (75) and again I could not believe how many people were there having breakfast! I can understand the retirees but all those younger once?.....30/40?...and young once as well like student age (18-20somethng?)...when I was at Uni I could not afford breakfast on Esplanade...lol
