On the few rare occasions my dear wife and I venture into Leicester together (it has been suggested that she may not like being seen out with me) we are astounded that we spend most of our walking time side-stepping oncoming pedestrians. We are clearly polite and do this as a natural reaction, but on the few occasions when I've decided to tough it out, I've still been the one who side-steps. How do these (other) people know that we will move out of their way?
