I was talking with my bowls partner on Monday who is a non-conformist minister. I told him about the noise in church before a service starts and how, when I was young, we used to have to be quiet. Also, everybody used to understand the need to calm down in the minutes before a service begins and did so automatically.
He commented that it is the same in his church and he regretted the modern trend to talk loudly. I deduce that loud chatter is a 21st century cultural thing.
