There’s a texture and a language British pubs that never get’s expressed very often, a culture around ordering a drink that might be very alien to someone from another country. You must attract the attention of the barman without making any sound or waving cash at him, never ever jump the invisible queue at the bar for example. No one is allowed to complain about the slow service unless they’re a regular, non-regular’s who try this will end up very sober and very thirsty. You know that if you don’t buy your round it won’t get mentioned, but your friends will be talking about it when you’re not there. By the way, I wonder if there’s a new convention developing now that more and more smokers have to go outside for a cigarette?
