2. BRITISH CUSTOMS.
For British people it’s very important to be puntual at all
hours
They drink tea at 5:00 p.m, and they don’t like drinking it at
other times.
When the British soldiers conquered Indians’ territory, they
tried tea and they started to drink it. Then, when they
arrived in Britain, they introduced tea as the national
drink.

Halloween is the most famous celebration in the year for
children. They love this custom because they like going
out dressed up at night to ask for sweets or candies. If the
people don’t want to give them, they make them scared.
4. BRITISH CUSTOMS.
In the UK, a very special day is Bonfire Night.
It’s celebrated on the 5th November all years. It represents
how the bad people tried to blow up the Parlament. In
their honour, they throw the fireworks.
