| WORK AND ENJOY LIFE IN BRITAIN |
|
People throughout the world wake up in
the morning and go to work(or work nightshifts).When they finish
work they don't lie on the beach or sit outside
bars, restaurants,tavernas for hours.Many spend time travelling home
by train,car or bus.Once home they do household/domestic
chores,relax,go out,go shopping,do nothing etc. In these matters the daily life of a working person in the UK is similar to elsewhere. One of the main sources of discontent in Britain is the weather.January and February can be bleak and gloomy and outdoor activities can be limited but there are ways to make the most of this period.A bleak gloomy climate is the ideal time to enjoy one of the most endearing British cultural traditions - gothic horror.Rain and darkness are vital elements of gothic horror and in Hammer films like 'The Reptile', 'The Gorgon' and 'Frankenstein' the backdrop is endless rain...snuggle up in the evening(or morning/afternoon if you work nights) and enjoy these films in their perfect environment - the dark gloom of late winter!
