The document discusses homes and housing in Britain. It notes that British people consider their home to be their "castle" and take pride in decorating their homes. While there are many modern flats in cities like London, houses in the countryside tend to be more expensive. Traditional English houses often have two floors plus an attic, and many homes feature a fireplace that serves as a gathering place for families in the evenings. The document concludes with several proverbs about the importance of home.
