Posts from Robbie in thread „A Difference In Cultures“

    I suppose with all the contrasting yet rich and interesting cultures that have been fleetingly mentioned on this board this topic was a natural progression. It is basically regarding what your country's culture involves and how that may be different to others below is a little about mine(I'm British for those who don't already know)


    1. Over here the average working week in Monday - Friday 9-5 although of course many people work outside these hours.


    2. We have two main types of education primary (aged 5-11) and secondary(aged 11-16 or 18)


    3. Football(soccer) is the most popular sport by a long way


    4. Soaps such as Eastenders and Coronation street are the most popular TV programmes watched by an average of 14million per show and some are on five days a week.


    5. The two main political parties for the UK are Conservative and Labour(currently in government) although Northern Ireland has different parties.


    I know not the most interesting information but hopefully this gets you all started, I think this could be a fun and educational :D topic.
