TEXT 7B

English pubs

 

Every country has its drinking habits. Most countries also have a national drink. In England, the national drink is beer, and the "pub", where Englishmen go to drink it, is a peculiarly English institution. At tables round a usually not very large room, people will be sitting and in front of each person you will see a pint or half pint mug of beer, or a smaller glass of whiskey, gin and tonic or fruit juice. This room is called the "bar", but the same term is used for the great counter of polished wood, which dominates one end of the room. At this bar, people will be standing again with a drink either in their hands or on a "beer-mat". From time to time, they will take a sip — for Englishmen sip their drinks — and then put down the mug to continue conver­sation. There is a general atmosphere of warmth and cosi­ness. Comfort is essential, for here people do not drop in for a quick drink and go; they generally want to "make an eve­ning of it", talking to friends or strangers, until closing time, when with a cry of "Time, gentlemen, please!" the landlord stops to serve drinks. This is usually at half past ten in the evening. There is an important peculiarity about pubs. They have strictly-limited hours of opening. Roughly speaking one may expect to find a pub open between 11:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. and again from about 5:30 p.m. until 10:30 p.m. but it is almost impossible to get strong drinks in England in the early morning, in the middle of the afternoon or at midnight or later.
