Self-control, the quality of not being excited, not losing one’s temper, is extraordinarily highly valued in Britain. Quarrelsomeness, violence, truculence, trouble-making these are profoundly taboo.

Conservatism
The British people are usually considered rather conservative. Their conservative attitude usually includes two aspects; an acceptance of things that are familiar, and an inclination to be suspicious of anything that is strange or foreign.

On Feb. 15, 1971 the new decimal currency came into use in Britain. Shillings disappeared and the pound is divided into 100 pence. There are six new coins: penny, 2 pence, 5 pence, 10 pence, 20 pence and 50 pence, but the pound note and the five-pound note remain the same. This was the first step to complete metrication. At present the metrication of weights and measurements are widely used in Britain, but in some shops, measurements are still given in inches, feet and yards as well as in centimeters and meters.

Modern methods of cooking, by electricity or gas, were accepted long ago, and few people would now favor the old type of coal-fired grate. For the business of heating houses many English people remain strongly attached to the open coal fire, although it causes a great deal of work and adds to the pollution of air, and sometimes pours smoke into the room which it is heating. Many English people thought that a living room without a fireplace would be a room without the basic character of coziness. Many rooms are in fact heated by gas or electric fires, but many people choose electric fires designed so as to look like coal fires, with imitation pieces of coal that are lit when the current is turned on.

The English hardly greeted each other, though they might know one another. There is little gossip in public places. If you took on an English train you would find most passengers sat reading newspapers. Not a word was spoken.

Privacy
The English people are very strict about privacy.

There are some other questions you should never ask an Englishman unless you know him very well. First of all, don’t ask about money matters, such as income or salary of friends, or prices of their possessions. Another taboo is the woman’s age. It is not so bad to ask a man his age, but it is also not very good.

English people rarely shake hands except when being introduced to someone for the first time. They hardly ever shake hands with their friends except when seeing them after a long interval or saying goodbye before a long journey. They also use their hands less when talking.
