British Pub

There are many pubs in the U.K. Statistically, there are about 70000 pubs in the U.K. and about 10000 pubs in Ireland. Pub is very popular among British people.Pub is an abbreviation for “Public House”. Pub hold a banquet, mainly beer. So many British people go to pubs after their work and drink beer. But drinking of beer in a public house is not compulsory it. We can choose another drink and eat some foods. In the Britin, most popular food is "Fish and Chips". It's much potatoes and whitefishes. It is very reasonable.
In the pub, they broadcasted football game on TV. We could drink with watching football game. So, British pub entertained us with drinks, foods, football game, time and space!!

Introduction to the East London Mosque

Today, I would like to introduce you a very famous and respected Mosque located in East London.
The Mosque that I am going to introduce is called East London Mosque, also known as ELM.
Their aim is to look to the needs of the various Muslim community, while making sure the services can be accessed by everyone. It also helps the local community by giving employment and education opportunities.
ELM actively opposes extremsim, and promotes tolerance. When the extremists rised up in the 90s, the ELM stood firmly against them, and advised their worshippers to make sure to take part in the local and national elections.
ELM also ecourages the young and the women to participate, providing a range of services that allow them to engage in a positive and safe environment.
I would like to visit this place one day, when the Mosque is open to all, and learn about the Islamic culture.

my fair lady

My fair lady is a drama about London.
The tale is about a Cockney flower girl heroine, Eliza Doolittle, who is trained by a misogynistic, bachelor linguistics expert, Henry Higgins, to speak properly within six months. His friend provoked him, and he bet on her that she could speak properly. During her elocution lessons, her unrepentant, calculating drunk father, Alfred P. Doolittle, appears for handouts, and she makes an embarrassing first appearance at the opening day Ascot Races, but she catches the eye of high born but poor Freddie Eynsford-Hill. Although she experiences personal triumph within high society at the Embassy Ball, and wins her teacher’s love, she storms off after being transformed.
