Manners is on the top of my list.
Amasing how many people don't hold the door open any longer or the simplest of things like standing when meeting someone, don't start me on table manners.
On thing I fear is becoming a lost art is holding a conversation for more than 5 minutes.

Conversation certainly is on the way out.
Some people just communicate by SMS or whatever, personally I like talking, even if it's a load of BS

As strange as it may sound, Bookman was absolutely correct to call map folding an art.
One of the first lessons that I learned in my basic military training was how to correctly fold an OS map. It was actually taught as a lesson in the Military Studies Wing (MSW). The correct way is to fold the map to the correct size of the waterproof map case so that the area that you are in is shown on the map and if you walk into the next area of the map, the face area can be changed with the minimal of effort.

Respecting other people's property. If it's not yours don't touch it.

^^ I was thinking more along the lines of knocking on Mrs Badden's door and asking permission to retrieve the footy rather than jumping the fence and trampling her carnations.

Well if the aforementioned Mrs.Badden was a married lady you could hardly trample her carnations thus''deflower'' her person garden of Eden as we must presume Mr.Bradden had done that already

.... exercising naturally. I had to walk three miles there and three miles back for cricket practice. Now you do the walking on a machine and your mother drives you to the oval in the latest model SUV. I even walked home semi-unconscious once after some kid clocked me in the eye with a full toss.

Doffing ones hat when approaching or passing ladies. Good sir, I gather it was daytime when you went skating. Ladies don't normally wear a brim hat in the evening.

- Doing a mono on a bicycle. Now it's all lycra and Gatorade. For the hipster in your life, who thinks that standard unicycles are just too mainstream. This little number is sure to get you noticed.
