An Englishman's day

It begins when he sits down to breakfast with his morning paper. After breakfast except on Sundays and Saturdays, which are holidays, he goes to work by train, tube, bus, car, motor bike or even on his own feet. At midday everything stops for lunch. Most offices and small shops close for an hour, say from 1 to 2, and many people hurry to cafes. Factory workers usually eat at their canteens. The usual midday meal consists of two courses - a meat course with plenty of vegetables, then a sweet dish, perhaps fruit pudding with tea or coffee.

Then back to work again with another break in the middle of the afternoon for tea or coffee, sometimes with a cake or biscuit.

The working day finishes at time between 4 and 6. On arrival home many Englishmen like to inspect their gardens before their evening meal, usually a meat course and then a cake or tea. When this evening meal is over, the Englishman can do a little gardening and then have a walk to the nearest beer house. There is a lot of lively company there and he can play dominoes, billiards or discuss the weather or current situation. But if the Englishman stays at home he can listen to the radio, watch TV, talk, read or enjoy his favorite hobby. Then between 10 and 12 he will have a drink and snack then off to bed ready for tomorrow.
