Dachs The blogger writes: "The British drink more Russian.

It's so comrades, it is. We long brainwashed about "drunken Russian pigs" but we're not even in the top league where firmly established British, French and even a lot of "civilized" nations. I did not finish grammar school (seating for a half liter of vodka per person no surprise), but fell for the first time on Friday night in the center of the city of Gdańsk was shocked. CROWD drunk as a lord raznovosrastnogo people, noise, noise, droppings in the streets. This we have in such an amount has not yet seen ... Curious following differences from the rest of the nations heavy drinkers. »





1) The same amount of drinking in the French Large Live English but there is a little drunk, that is usually drunk as: lunch stakanchik- other wine each evening a bottle or two of wine each, eyes sparkled, but the mood has risen and all, without seeking adventure and delivered worries others. The truth is every day so ... The English full evenings (especially on weekends) really stinking drunk people.



2) appear on the streets in the ass drunk in most countries have the privilege of the lower strata. But not in the UK. There's an average and even upper middle class (the classes will detail later) is not considered shameful to get drunk and wander the streets at night. There is only one rule - it must be in the company (and better in a bar or nightclub), to be considered decent. Nazhiratsya alone at home it is considered bad manners ...


3) Again, in most countries still drunk woman in the street is not a very normal thing. But not in the UK. There's maiden aunt, and drink on an equal basis with men, not even to say that they're all b ** di not. Quite decent aunt did not consider it shameful to get drunk as a lord and then fall on the threshold of a nightclub bouncer and ask for a taxi. And it's all in the eyes of colleagues in the prestigious job. It is not even outrageous (as I first thought). No, just people off the case. Oh, and then to discuss the behavior of drunk is not accepted (such as that often slyshish us "but yesterday we soak a drunk ...." At work, a completely different style of communication, but more on that later.
Yes, the British drink everything, from beer to whiskey and gin 70 percent. Young prefer beer and ale, as well as cocktails


On the national characteristics. Irish drink MORE Englishmen drink 10-12 cups of Guinness for the evening - not a problem. And the Guinness is not just a beer, this is a serious drink Guinness - the average Russian man 3 cups of the Guinness make drunk 5-7 cups do very drunk. Scots drink moderately with a large overlap in the Scotch and behave somewhat more subdued compared with anglichanmi. About the Welsh few statistics I have - they live there at a fairly closed in Wales, and I am in the area was not.



And another interesting fact. During a fight in a pub, even if taken to the police effects usually does not happen, even if the fight was severe (but without strong chrenovreditelstva, of course). It is a national sport there - many attend special podratsya.Est course unwritten rule - it is necessary to find the pub where it is accepted, and secondly there is a ritual invitation to fight, that is, if you're a casual traveler, and do not want to fight, that none of you will not climb .
