1. God save our gracious Queen,
Long live our noble Queen,
God save the Queen!
Send her victorious,
Happy and glorious,
Long to reign over us;
God save the Queen!

Scatter her enemies
And make them fall;
Confound their politics,
Frustrate their knavish tricks,
On Thee our hopes we fix,
God save us all!

On her be pleased to pour;
Long may she reign;
May she defend our laws,
And ever give us cause
To sing with heart and voice,
God save the Queen!

THE BRITISH CHARACTER.
For centuries the British have been known as snobbish, hypocritical and unsociable people.That’s not quite true, though the character of an Englishman has some specific features. The British are considered to be rather conservative. They are proud of their traditions and keep them in everything.
A reserved Englishman doesn’t like to show his emotions but he is always polite. They say that every Englishman is a country man at heart. That’s why they prefer to have their own house than to live in a flat. “My house is my castle” says a widely known English proverb.The British are supposed to be the world’s greatest tea-drinkers. They say: “Seven cups of tea wake you up in the morning, nine cups will put you to sleep at night”.
The English are reputed to have a good sense of humor. The Scots are said to be serious inventive and somewhat mystical. The Irish are known for their charm as well as for the beauty of the Irish girls. The Welsh are an emotional people but sometimes reticent. “Every country has its customs”, says an English proverb.

Traditionally, spring begins on St Valentine's Day (February 14th), the day on which birds chose their mates. In parts of Sussex Valentines Day was called 'the Birds' Wedding Day'.
Each year in Britain, we spend around £503m on cards, flowers, chocolates and other gifts for Valentine's Day. Traditionally these were sent anonymously, but nowadays we often make it clear who is sending each 'Valentine'.
Valentine's Day Traditions
There are many traditions and tales associated with romance activities on Valentine's day including:
the first man an unmarried woman saw on 14th February would be her future husband;
if the names of all a girl's suitors were written on paper and wrapped in clay and the clay put into water, the piece that rose to the surface first would contain the name of her husband-to-be.
if a woman saw a robin flying overhead on Valentine’s Day, it meant she would marry a sailor. If she saw a sparrow, she would marry a poor man and be very happy. If she saw a goldfinch, she would marry a rich person.
