A few words about the way of living and traditions of the british people

The traffic regulations in Great Britain differ from ours: we are to keep to the right, while they are to keep to the left.

The English buses are very high, because they are double-decked; all of them are red.

The houses are not very big; they are mostly two-storeyed buildings with little gardens. The windows of one and the same house are painted in different colours. And not only the windows, the doors, steps and walls are painted in different colours too. Everybody paints his own part of the house in the colour he likes best.

Central heating is found in very few houses even in London. In most rooms more is a fireplace. Englishmen are fond of spending their evenings round the fire. This is an old tradition.

The English people like tea more than coffee, that's why there are so many tea-rooms or tea-shops where the people go shopping and can have a rest.

Sunday is a very quiet day in London. All the shops, theatres and most of the cinemas are closed. Londoners like to go out of town on Sundays. It is also their tradition.
