The lure of Britain If travel statistics mean anything the most popular overseas destination among Cana is Bntian year after vear Een granting that is the overseas destination with far the best air connections to Canada its popularity must sureh mean that the British are doing something right from the stand point of overseas lsitors How is it then that the I K gets such bad reviews from a certain class of writers Graham writing recent in a humor section fo Regent Magazine a high gloss monthh with worldwide distribution among t judge by its advertisements the weallh dumped heavih on I K catering in an article entitled Gruel Britannia He describes a where expectations are low a bilious network of restaurants cafes wine bars and tea rooms where it it poss ble to be ignored insulted kept waiting poisoned overcharged but not alwas in that order Wait a minute It ma be true that in travels around the lorld vou will never see a restaurant with a sign proclaiming British Cooking But

Atwood a few vears ago contributed an essav to The New York Times that could well serve as a guide to any of us visiting Bn tain England is a foreign country she wrote The first thing to remember if that you are a foreigner The English said Atwood have a sixth sense a class sense but they exclude foreigners like us from otherwise carefully stratified ranking of classes There are exceptions Some English people consign all foreigners to a class called savages The visitor who hopes to fit among the local people should observe the custom of what At wood called erecting elaborate artifacts of words Thus if you should ever find yourself in Eastbourne when darkness is approaching try to avoid the direct approach Instead construct an elaborate artifact of words such as I say I frightfully
