The talking to people in shops and waiting for a bus thing very much depends on where you live. I live in a rural market town in the North, and we talk to ANYONE about ANYTHING at ANY TIME. London ... not so much.
The thing I've discovered on my travels in the US is people are generally louder than we are - much more gregarious. Our natural reserve can make us seem stand-offish, but we're really not. We just need to get you know you first. :-))
