Waiter- customer

Good morning. I´m very hungry and I´ll have/ I´d like to have  a chicken salad for starter, and roast beef with French fries for main course. I´d like to drink some white wine and a glass of still mineral water and I´d like a white coffee and a piece of cheesecake for dessert please.

I am afraid I haven´t got any chicken salad/ there isn´t any chicken salad left. Would you like some rice salad? It´s delicious! Would you like sugar in your coffee? I´m sorry but there isn´t any milk left. Would you like black coffee?

Have you got a kettle or a teapot, a mug, a tea spoon, some milk, some sugar, and tea bags?

WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE ENGLISH? Listen  to this formal British man giving instructions on how to prepare a wonderful cup of tea.

Would you like to have some tea?

Hello, and welcome to another episode of "How to be English". In today mag- My name is Charles and today I’m going to be showing you the ancient English art that is making a cup of tea. Ha ha ha
Firstly, you will need to get your tea-making equipment. This consists of a kettle, complete with water, a mug, a tea spoon, milk (I prefer semi-skimmed milk), sugar (for those of you with a sweet tooth) and, least but not last, teabags. Now that you have all your equipment, we can get started.
(put this and that away)

KETTLE

First, take your kettle and fill it with water. Then plug the kettle into the plug and boil the water. While the kettle is boiling we can prepare the cup for tea-bagging. Take the mug, remove the spoon, and insert one teabag into the mug. If you wish to have sugar in your tea, insert the sugar at this point. I have a sweet tooth, so I prefer two sugars in my tea. Now the cup is ready for the water, so we will wait for the water to boil.

It’s ready! Take your kettle with boiling water and pour the water into the cup. Then, we stir. Then you take the teabag and you press it against the side of the cup and remove the teabag. Remove the teabag. Aaah.

Now, the tea is ready for the milk. I like my tea quite milky. There!. And once again, stir the tea. You must stir the tea quite a lot to make sure that the sugar is dissolved and that the infusion of the tea leaves combines with the water. And now the tea is ready to drink. Ah, delicious!

Thanks for watching how to be English. See you next time.

Oh, Charlie is so- Charlie is so- Charlie is so cool!

Hi everyone!

I am in London. I always  have a great time here.

I am very happy because my friend Liz is with me.

We go to a café and then to the British Museum at the weekend.

It is a beautiful place and the museum is free.

On Tuesdays we usually visit other museums like the National Gallery                                         

and the Theatre museum. Liz ´s friend, Tina,  also comes with us  to  typical

English pubs (beer here is delicious!). We go shopping to Portobello

market in the morning and we go to Soho in the evening.

 We love going shopping and clubbing!

Liz is excited because she can meet her English friends  in London.

The food is not very good. I don´t like baked beans for breakfast but Liz loves them.

Never mind! This is London!

Wish you were here.  See you soon,

Love,

           Laura.

Xmas vocabulary.

Go to page 108 of your textbook- What is Hogmanay? Listen to "Auld Lang Syne".

This song was written by Robert Burns, the Scottish national poet.

It is the song that nobody knows, because everybody remembers the melody but not the lyrics.

In English the title means: Old long since (times gone by)

A different Xmas story!

Do you know? Something about Christmas traditions in Britain.

Something about Christmas traditions in Britain.

In English speaking countries, children don’t get their presents on Christmas Eve (24 December). Santa comes at night when everyone is asleep. Santa’s reindeer can fly and take him from house to house. They land on the roofs of the houses and then Santa climbs down the chimney to leave the presents under the Christmas tree.


In the morning of Christmas Day (25 December), children usually get up very early to unwrap their presents. Then they have plenty of time to play with their new toys.

Christmas dinner is served in the early afternoon. Most people eat turkey and sprouts and a Christmas pudding.

26 December is called Boxing Day. It hasn’t always been a holiday. People used to go back to work on that day where their bosses gave them little Christmas presents in small boxes. That’s why the day is called Boxing Day.

And about New Year...

Here is everything that you need to know about the New Year's celebrations in English-speaking countries:
- December 31 is New Year's Eve.
- January 1 is New Year's Day.
- Americans call the whole festival New Year's: What are you doing between Christmas and New Year's?

-British speakers call it New Year or the New Year: What are you doing between Christmas and New Year?

-The new year festival is important in Scotland. It's called Hogmanay. They do strange traditional things with bagpipes, the stomachs of sheep (haggis), and pieces of coal. The Scots say that foreign visitors are welcome (but maybe they mean as victims).

- In other English-speaking countries, people just go to parties. It's the same procedure every year. At midnight they sing an old song in a Scottish dialect, called "Auld Lang Syne", which might mean: "Let's kill all the English this year." (No one really knows.)
