i was traveling on a single-decker bus today.
I find people generally are courteous enough to say, "Thank you driver," as they get off. Today was different.

I noticed a lot of people saying, "Thank you driver. Happy Easter!" and the driver reciprocating and saying, "Happy Easter to you too."
I have never seen this before - is it a common thing at Easter? Felt good hearing the exchanges take place, for some unfathomable reason.

It could be the first one set up or reminded the others to reciprocate.

Could be a backlash against the Cadbury shop featured in the news this week that was selling 'Gesture Eggs'
