If you just hold the locked phone over the reader with your thumb on the home button, it takes maybe four seconds to complete the process. Obviously that's pretty quick, but it definitely doesn't feel it with a queue of people behind you expecting to get through without any delay at all!”

London for you, if people slowed down for more than a few seconds there, they are scared they will stick to the floor.
This city is starting to get like it to be honest, people in a rush, to get to nowhere. Up North they are so much more laid back.
