I think you will find Quaker meetings in Britain a lot different to those in other countries. There's none of this "Theeing and thouing" and "first day" business, we speak plainly and call a Sunday a Sunday.

Well, the theeing and thouing and first daying, etc. is a thing of the past for most American Quakers, too, and has been for about 100 years (At least judging from letters my grandfather wrote, explaining Quakers to my future grandmother). I do like the idea of using "thee" and "thou," but that's more because I'm a word nerd who likes to keep her grammar straight than for any theological reasons. ;o)

I do notice that I prefer silence to having "background music." When there's a song I like that's playing on the radio (or even one that pops up in a tv commercial), I like to stop whatever I'm doing and focus my attention on it. I'm not sure if that's due to my Quakerly upbringing, or just a quirk of my temprament, though.
