so far I think she;s making observations that are pretty broad - even stereotyping. I'm not all the way thru the book yet - but stuff that could be said about ANY culture, reeally. She's going on about teams (cricket?) or stag parties getting drunk. Well, yeah. Duh. she talks about the booze culture in the UK- and with exactly NO first hand experience of the UK booze cx, all I can say is that it sounds a hell of a lot like the booze culture over here.
