Union Jack Flag (Resulta da sobreposição de Elementos: A cruz de São Jorge, da bandeira de Inglaterra (Vermelha, no Meio, com Branco Fundo) A cruz de Santo André, da bandeira da Escócia (branca, em Formato de X, com azul Fundo) A cruz de São Patrício, isso representa a Ilha da Irlanda (Vermelha em Formato de X, com Branco no Fundo) O País de Gales, uma britânica outra Nação, por sua vez, nunca foi representado na bandeira do Reino Unido. A 1 de Maio de 1707, ocorreu uma União das coroas da Inglaterra e Escócia, dando origem ao Reino da GrãBretanha, cuja bandeira uniu a cruz de São Jorge à cruz de Santo André. A União da Irlanda com a Grã-Bretanha, e consequente adição da cruz de São Patrício, só se realizaria em 1801, dando origem ao Reino Unido da GrãBretanha e Irlanda.
A bandeira ficaria inalterada mesmo com a Independência da Maior Parte da Irlanda, que se tornou em 1922 um país reconhecidamente Independente com o nome oficial de República da Irlanda.)
National Anthem
1. God save our gracious Queen, Long live our noble Queen, God save the Queen! Send her victorious, Happy and glorious, Long to reign over us; God save the Queen!
4. Not in this land alone, But be God's mercies known, From shore to shore! Lord make the nations see, That men should brothers be, And form one family, The wide world over.
2. O Lord our God arise, Scatter her enemies And make them fall; Confound their politics, Frustrate their knavish tricks, On Thee our hopes we fix, God save us all!
5. From every latent foe, From the assassins blow, God save the Queen! O'er her thine arm extend, For Britain's sake defend, Our mother, prince, and friend, God save the Queen!
3. Thy choicest gifts in store On her be pleased to pour; Long may she reign; May she defend our laws, And ever give us cause To sing with heart and voice, God save the Queen!
6. Lord grant that Marshal Wade May by thy mighty aid Victory bring. May he sedition hush, And like a torrent rush, Rebellious Scots to crush. God save the Queen!

London Population
The latest official estimate of the population of London comes from the Office of National Statistics. According to their data, the population of Greater London in July 2010 was 7,825,200.
To figure out how many people live in London, we can look at the most recent census. The census is taken every 10 years, with the last one completed on March 27th 2011. Based on the 2011 numbers, the population of London stands at 8,173,941.
London is the largest city in the United Kingdom by some distance (the next largest city in the UK - Birmingham - has a population of almost exactly 1 million), and the largest city in the European Union (more than twice as large as its nearest rival, Berlin). It is the third largest city in the continent of Europe, behind Istanbul (13.5 million) and Moscow (11.5 million), and the 22nd most populous city in the world, slightly smaller than New York (20th position) and Lagos (21st).
Folklore
The Folklore Society (FLS) is a learned society devoted to the study of traditional culture in all its forms. It was founded in London in 1878 and was one of the first organisations established in the world for the study of folklore. The term 'folklore' describes the overarching concept that holds together a number of aspects of vernacular culture and cultural traditions, and is also the name of the discipline which studies them. The Folklore Society's interest and expertise covers such topics as traditional music, song, dance and drama, narrative, arts and crafts, customs and belief. We are also interested in popular religion, traditional and regional food, folk medicine, children's folklore, traditional sayings, proverbs, rhymes and jingles. Under the terms of the registration of our charitable status, our aims are to foster the research and documentation of folklore worldwide, and to make the results of such study available to all, whether members of the Society or not.

Irish Stew recepie Ingredients 3 middle necks of lamb (about 1.8kg/4lb), filleted and boned – you need to end up with about 950g/2lb 2oz pure meat 650g floury potatoes, such as King Edward 650g waxy potatoes, such as Desirée or Pentland Javelin 1kg carrots 2 onions ½ tsp fresh thyme leaves chopped fresh chives and parsley, to garnish For the stock bones from the lamb 1 large carrot, quartered 1 onion, quartered ½ celery stick, quartered 1 bay leaf 2 large sprigs of thyme a generous sprig of parsley 6 black peppercorns, lightly crushed Method Make the stock. Put the lamb bones in a large heavy-based saucepan with the carrot, onion, celery, herbs, peppercorns and 1 tsp salt. Pour in 3 litres/5 1⁄4 pints water. Bring to the boil and simmer uncovered for 2 hours. Strain the stock through a fine sieve to remove bones and vegetables, then return to the pan. Boil until reduced to about 1.3 litres/21⁄4 pints. (You can make the stock the day before – keep it in a covered container in the fridge, or freeze it for up to 3 months.) Make the stew. Cut the lamb into large chunks. Peel the potatoes (keeping both types separate) and cut into pieces of similar size to the meat. Put the two different types in separate bowls of water to keep them white. Peel the carrots and cut into slightly smaller pieces. Slice the onions into thick rings. Put the lamb in a large, clean saucepan. Pour in the stock and bring to the boil, skimming off all the impurities from the surface. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer gently for 10 minutes. Add the floury potatoes, carrots and onions. Season generously and simmer for a further 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the waxy potatoes and thyme. Simmer until the lamb is tender (15-20 minutes). Take off the heat, cover (don’t stir) and leave for 15 minutes. (You can make this up to 2 days ahead and keep in the fridge). Garnish and serve.

Scotland National Anthem O Flower of Scotland When will we see your like again That fought and died for Your wee bit hill and glen And stood against him Proud Edward's army And sent him homeward Tae think again The hills are bare now And autumn leaves lie thick and still O'er land that is lost now Which those so dearly held That stood against him Proud Edward's army And sent him homeward Tae think again Those days are past now And in the past they must remain But we can still rise now And be the nation again! That stood against him Proud Edward's army And sent him homeward Tae think again O Flower of Scotland When will we see your like again That fought and died for Your wee bit hill and glen And stood against him Proud Edward's army And sent him homeward Tae think again

Coat of arms of Wales.
Wales Mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi, Gwlad beirdd a chantorion, enwogion o fri; Ei gwrol ryfelwyr, gwladgarwyr tra mad, Dros ryddid collasant eu gwaed. (Chorus) Gwlad, gwlad, pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad. Tra m么r yn fur i'r bur hoff bau, O bydded i'r hen iaith barhau.
(Second stanza) Hen Gymru fynyddig, paradwys y bardd, Pob dyffryn, pob clogwyn, i'm golwg sydd hardd; Trwy deimlad gwladgarol, mor swynol yw si Ei nentydd, afonydd, i mi. (Chorus) (Third stanza) Os treisiodd y gelyn fy ngwlad tan ei droed, Mae hen iaith y Cymru mor fyw ag erioed, Ni luddiwyd yr awen gan erchyll law brad, Na thelyn berseiniol fy ngwlad. (Chorus)
English Country of poets and singers, celebrities indeed: Its warring defenders, so gallant and brave, For freedom their life's blood they gave Land!, Land!, Pledge-ful I am to my country! While seas secure This land so pure, O may our old language endure. O land of the mountains, the bard's paradise, Whose precipice, valleys are fair to my eyes, Green murmuring forest, far echoing flood Fire the fancy and quicken the blood For tho' the fierce foeman has ravaged your realm, The old speech of Wales he cannot o'erwhelm, Our passionate poets to silence command, Nor banish the harp from your strand. and: The land of my fathers, the land of my choice, The land in which poets and minstrels rejoice; The land whose stern warriors were true to the core, While bleeding for freedom of yore. Wales! Wales! fav'rite land of Wales! While sea her wall, may naught befall To mar the old language of Wales. Old mountainous Cambria, the Eden of bards, Each hill and each valley, excite my regards; To the ears of her patriots how charming still seems The music that flows in her streams. My country tho' crushed by a hostile array, The language of Cambria lives out to this day; The muse has eluded the traitors' foul knives, The harp of my country survives.
Traditional Food from Wales Faggots with onion gravy
Method:
Ingredients: little oil, for the tin 170g pack sage & onion stuffing mix (we used Paxo) 500g pack diced pork shoulder 300g pig livers ½ tsp ground mace For the gravy 2 onions, thinly sliced 1 tbsp sunflower oil 2 tsp sugar 1 tbsp red wine vinegar 3 tbsp plain flour 850ml beef stock handful chopped parsley mash and veg, to serve (optional)
1. Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Lightly oil a very large roasting tin. Tip the stuffing mix into a large bowl, add 500ml boiling water, stir and set aside. 2 .Pulse the pork in a food processor until finely chopped. Add the liver and pulse again. Add to the stuffing with the mace, 1 tsp salt and plenty of black pepper. Stir well. Shape the mixture (it will be very soft) into 24 large faggots and put in the prepared tin.
3 . To make the gravy, fry the onions in the oil until starting to turn golden. Add the sugar and continue cooking, stirring frequently, until caramelised. Tip in the vinegar and allow to sizzle. Mix the flour with a couple of tbsp water. Pour the stock into the onions, then add the flour paste and cook, stirring constantly, until smooth and starting to thicken. When it is thick, pour into the tin with the faggots, cover with foil and bake for 1 hr until cooked through. Serve sprinkled with parsley, with mash and a veg, if you like. http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/
