This week I am reading about british customs and I have made a sumarize:
BRITAIN`S SOCIAL CUSTOMS

-British people place considerable value on punctuality. People make great effort to arrive on time. It is often considered impolite to arrive even a few minutes late.

-"Drop in anytime" and "come see me soon" are idioms often used in social setting. Moreover you never accept an invitation unledd you really plan to go. Then you may refuse by saying "Thank you for inviting me, but I will not be able to come".
