If there are no seats on the upper deck of a bus, it is typical. If its start to rain at five o'clock just before you leave work, it is typical.' \r\n\r\n'The English do not like to be wished \"Have a nice day\", because to them it sounds like a command. They think, Who the hell do you think you are to order me to have a nice day?' \r\n\r\nTen years ago, Angela Kiss arrived in the UK without a word of English. All she brought with her was a small bag, a sense of adventure, a desire to work and a copy of George Mikes' classic 1940s' humour book about the peculiarities of the British, How to be an Alien. \r\n\r\nThrough every dodgy flat share, low-paid waitressing job, awkward date and office mishap, Angela held tight to George's wit and wisdom. With his help she began to understand how to live amongst the English - with their eccentricity, spirit and singing train drivers - and fell in love with a land rich in green spaces, pubs and puddings. \r\n\r\nA wry, often affectionate view on the English, and how to navigate our national personality.\u003cspan class=\"booksy-isbn-search\" style=\"position:absolute;left:-9999px;width:1px;height:1px;overflow:hidden;\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\u003eISBN: 9781910463215\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Kiss Angela","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56566556328322,"sku":"9781910463215","price":76.99,"currency_code":"RON","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/1500\/6850\/files\/B1438203.jpg?v=1776325264","url":"https:\/\/www.booksy.ro\/products\/how-to-be-an-alien-in-england","provider":"Booksy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
