On saturday I was at the station and going down the stairs, which are down on one side, up on the other. A very elderly lady was going down the stairs and a group of girls, aged around 15ish were coming up, most of them on their "correct" side except for one, who had decided to come up the down side. She came face-to-face with the lady, who very politely said "you are on the wrong side" to be met with a mouthful of abuse and told "go round me then" the old lady said she needed to keep hold of the handrail and couldn't let go. The girl just would not move, said she had a right to walk where she liked and was not moving for her or anyone else. I was so glad a man stepped in and just took hold of the lady and helped her on down. The whole group were a bit aggressive. I feel very cross with myself that I didn't stand up to them. Very unpleasant.
