Doing the Right Thing in Britain
1. When you stop a stranger in the street to ask for directions, start by saying ‘Excuseme…’ When you want to get past people, say ‘Excuse me…’ and they will move outof your way. And you should say ‘Please’ when you ask for something, and say‘Thank you’ when people give you something.
2. Look friendly. Smile when you talk to people in shops, restaurants and on publictransport, and they will probably smile back.
3. Don’t sit or stand too close to people you don’t know. British people don’t oftentouch each other, and usually say ‘Sorry’ when they touch someone by mistake. Andwhen there are several empty seats in a public place, people usually sit away fromother people.
4. Don’t ask personal questions like ‘How old are you?’, ‘How much do you weigh?’or ‘Are you married?’ You can talk about the weather (always exciting!), or recentTV programmes, or football matches.
5. Make an appointment to see someone before you go to their home. It’s unusual tocall on someone when they aren’t expecting you.
6. You mustn’t talk with your mouth full of food – wait until you have finished eatingbefore you speak. And don’t eat food off your knife.
