The Queen Elizabeth II is one of the richest women in the world. Being a queen is a really busy job. Elizabeth II gets up early and begins the day by looking through newspapers. Then she reads letters from the public (she gets more than 1000 each week) and tells the staff how they should be answered. The Queen has daily meetings with her private Secretary who helps her to do paper work, and lots of meetings with ambassadors, new judges and bishops. In the afternoons she opens new hospitals, bridges, factories. Once a week the Queen has a meeting with the Prime Minister and they discuss government business and important things that are happening in the country. In the evening she reads the report of the day from the Parliament. She must agree to every new law. In her spare time the Queen enjoys horse racing, fishing and walking in the countryside. She also enjoys photography and likes taking photos on her travels.

Gardening – is a well- known favourite. As the weather in Britain is mild, British manage to do gardening almost all the year round. Sometimes this can be just doing a bit of weeding and sometimes, serious vegetable and fruit growing. In fact, regardless of the size of the garden, the British can always find plenty to do in it. Mowing grass is also very important. Every Sunday morning (except for winter) they come out to mow their lawns. The British see an unmown lawn not only as a sign of laziness, but also as disrespect to others.

It was England that was destined to become the tastemaker in tea fashion for several centuries, and the guardian of tea traditions. It was here that tea became not only a part of life, but also of culture in the widest sense. It influenced traditions, art, habits and possibly even the national character.
How did tea make its way into English society? The first records of tea being bought in London shops start appearing at the beginning of the 1650s. Right from the very beginning a number of tea drinking traditions and English habits were formed. Tea was used for medical purposes, then became a social drink, a noble alternative to alcohol. England gained not only the port of Bombey, but also the habit of drinking tea every day. The ladies quickly established some well- defined traditions: tea should be poured by the lady of the house, there should be special tongs for serving sugar, the tart taste of tea should be softened with milk. They paid great attention to the tea service and started buying cups, sugar bowls, milk jugs, tea-ports, saucers, side plates and special table cloths and napkins, which soon become an important part in the life of all English aristocratic houses. By 1750 tea had become the most popular beverage for all types and classes of people – even though a pound of tea cost a skilled worker perhaps a third of his weekly wage. Tea was drunk in various situations: not only in its traditional form after dinner as a digestive, for breakfast and during receptions, but also in breaks from work, when being treated at a spa, on the road while travelling, before going to bed and upon waking up. In short, everywhere. Tea become associated with the wider Britain, namely the British Empire. And then the British began to export their language, political system, law, games (cricket, football) and spread their tea.
Has tea affected the national character? Many people like to think that it has. The British become quieter, gentler, less aggressive. There are theories that tea transformed England, as it had China and Japan before that. Some researches believe that tea brings tranquility, a love of order and family values. The English who ruled half the world with an iron fist in the nineteenth century hardly fit in to this ideal image. Maybe, in actual fact, it is that nations which have certain national tendencies choose tea and not tea that forms those tendencies?
