		<description>That might be two sides of a coin. I&#039;ve been here for 3 years and they might be a little more open. The same as with us - we don&#039;t smile at strangers. I have to see somebody 3 times before I make friends with them.</description>

		<description>It interested me. Who is on the verge of riot? Which people? Why?

I had an opposite impression. That people seem to be like on calming medications. Stupid tabloids and Big Brother being opiates to the masses, which allow the system to continue working:)</description>

		<description>Haven&#039;t you heard that the fog is back?

I realize now that the &#039;tea&#039; is a meal after work, before the evening meal.

I just didn&#039;t expect to find that kind of society structure... Thrilling to examine if one is a scientist, I imagine.

BTW: Look above - it seems that not only Poles are interested what others think about us!</description>

		<description>&#039;on the verge of riot&#039; is actually a very good description of British society. It&#039;s been that way for centuries. A polite and refined nation we are not, it&#039;s a myth on a par with fog and five o&#039;clock tea.</description>
