Traditions and Holidays
One of the most characteristic features of Englishmen is theirtraditions which they respect, and which they kept for centuries.The traditions don't only accumulate the experience and wisdom ofmany generations, but they bring some stability into the rapidlychanging world.
2.The Englishmen have sentimental love for all old things. Theykeep fireplaces in their houses instead of central heating. In theHouse of Lords, Chansellor sits on a sack of wool. This traditioncomes from the old times when sheep made England rich and powerful.In the House of Commons there are two rows of benches: one row isfor the government and the other one is for the opposition. The benches are divided by a strip of carpet in order to prevent two parties from fighting during the debates in old times. Even the Legislation of the country is traditional. It includes many laws that haven't been changed for centuries .
Numerous clubs that unite people of various interests presentone more traditional feature of Great Britain. Englishmen like tospend their time reading, talking, discussing traditional matters:politics, sports and weather over a glass of beer.
British buses are double-decked and red, mail-boxes are yellow,the cars keep to the left side of the road - all these are traditions. Englishmen have their five-o'clock tea not only at home orat their offices, but also in tea-rooms or tea-shops, which can befound everywhere.
There are only six public holidays in Great Britain when peopledon't work. They are Christmas (X-mas), Boxing Day, Good Friday,Easter Monday, Spring Bank Holiday and Late Bank Holiday. The NewYear is also a public holiday in Scotland.
Besides public holidays there are other festivals and anniversaries, for example Pancake Day, Saint Valentine's Day, Mother's Day.But these are not days off.
Valentine's Day is becoming more and more popular in our countrytoo. It is celebrated on the 14th of February? when every young manor woman thinks about their heart. On this day you can buy cards oryou can make cards yourselves - it depends on how much you are Inlove with somebody and it says "To my darling Valentine", but youdon't sign it. You might write. "I love you, derling", "Love fromNick. Then you send it to e" person whom you are in love, they maynot even know it, and the only way to guess is the address on theenvelope.
