Locals with whom I was seated must have noticed my change in expression.
After discussing the situation of kids behaving themselves and no graffiti, they commented; We love our country.
Enough said.

Hi Steve. You were lucky if you didn't come across any graffiti in Switzerland. Believe me, there is plenty of it, particularly on railway property.
Generally speaking Swiss kids do still tend to be better behaved than those in the UK (and obviously Oz) but I don't think it will be long before they bow down to the influences of the modern world.
