Leisure and Sightseeing in United Kingdom: real experience from chats

From real experience

tipConcert etiquette in the UK often involves organized queuing (sometimes using numbered spots on hands).
Crowds are generally respectful; moving through a standing crowd to reach the front is standard practice using 'excuse me'. Outdoor concert attendees should use SPF on scalp areas. Crowd management at major venues is efficient, but access to restrooms can be limited in standing areas.
