A typical British wedding
Kyle and Sarah decided to have a traditional white wedding in a church. During the service the bride's relatives were on the left of the aisle and the groom's on the right. As the bride walked down the aisle, she was wearing a traditional wedding dress, although off-the-shoulder, and a veil. She carried a small but exquisite bouquet. The groom was also traditionally dressed in a morning coat with tails, pin-stripe trousers and a top hat. He waited for her by the altar with the best man. The bride's father escorted her to the altar, followed by her three bridesmaids. After the service, the happy couple's friends and relatives showered them with confetti.
After all the photographs were taken, everybody drove to a hotel for the reception, with the bride and groom travelling in a specially-hired vintage Rolls Royce. After a buffet and drinks, the happy couple was toasted with champagne as they cut the wedding cake. The best man made his traditionally cruel speech to describe the worst incidents of the groom's past, the success of the speech being measured by the volume of laughter and the embarrassment of the groom. The bride's father then made the traditional statement, that he and the bride's mother "were not losing a daughter, but gaining a son". Then everyone danced to the band specially hired for the occasion.
Once the reception was over the bride and groom changed out of their wedding attire, he into casual clothes, and she into her "going away outfit". To avoid having their cars "decorated", they had arranged for a taxi to take them to Gatwick Airport, from where they were due to fly to Crete for two weeks for their honeymoon.

It was reported by BBC News that an animal psychologist had been asked to examine Princess Anne's English bull terrier. The dog had been caught fatally savaging one of the Queen's corgis and a few days later, a maid was bitten on the knee by the animal, while working at the Queen's home in Sandringham, Norfolk. The psychologist, Roger Mugford, said that he had been asked to treat eight-year-old Florence.
Mr Mugford, expecting to start work immediately, using training techniques with the objective of improving the dog's aggressive behaviour, is the Head of the Animal Behaviour Centre in Chertsey, Surrey. The paper said he successfully treated another of Princess Anne's dogs, Dotty, after she bit two boys in Windsor Great Park in 2002. Princess Anne was prosecuted under the Dangerous Dogs Act and warned by the judge that if there were any further attacks, Dotty would have to be destroyed. Dotty was initially wrongly identified as the dog which had attacked the Queen's corgi, but a Buckingham Palace spokesman later confirmed Florence had been responsible.

Text: Do-It-Yourself
In Britain, most people live in separate houses which they buy, usually with a 25-year mortgage. So they live in their own property as an "owner- occupier" and this sort of ownership means they are not only responsible for the interior of the property, as is usual in Ukraine, but also for the exterior and its surroundings.
People have to deal with the upkeep and maintenance of the exterior walls, the external windows and doors, the drainpipes, the gutters, the roof, the chimney stack and chimney pots, the garage, the garden, the shed and sometimes there's also a greenhouse. As a result there's always a lot of work to do on the exterior as well as the interior of the houses where people live.
In Britain there is frequently not much difference between the income of a person doing a manual or "tradesman's" job and the earnings of someone with a managerial occupation. A gardener, a plumber, an electrician, a tiler, a roofer, a painter or a plasterer, for example, will often earn more money than a bank manager or civil servant, for instance, who can't easily afford to hire such tradesmen. Only the very rich, such as Sir Paul McCartney or David Beckham, don't have to think twice about using specialist services.
This means that most people do jobs around the house themselves - "Do-It-Yourself' or DIY. Householders learn to deal with electricity, building materials, painting, decorating, and much of the. internal and external maintenance of a house. The scope of work will obviously vary - from simple repair to decoration, refurbishment, renovation, even reconstruction or rebuilding.
A secondary factor arises from the very high prices for property around Britain, and this is why DIY for very many people evolves into Home Improvement. These can be house extensions, when one or more rooms are added to the ground floor or the first floor (often over an attached garage), loft conversions when an attic is converted into a room with windows, a conservatory is built onto a downstairs room, a pond added to the garden or even just added cosmetic improvements to make the house simply look better.
Consequently, there are almost as many DIY supermarkets around Britain as there are food supermarkets, and going shopping can very often mean going out to buy paint, varnish, plaster, electrical fittings or creosote.
