Here are some things I did not know two weeks ago.
There are a startling number of Chinese take-away places here. Even Berry Hill, the tiny neighbouring village, has one. Almost all the Chinese take-aways we've driven past also sell fish and chips. The girls are prepared to walk a five mile roundtrip - albeit a very scenic roundtrip through tiny country lanes - to buy a candy bar. Stephen is not. Orange is to British chocolate as peanuts are to American chocolate. Bulls really do have rings through their noses. At least the ones round here do, anyway. "Cheers" seems to mean "thank you" here. The websites for most UK businesses do not seem to have that feature where you can use your postal code to find the store nearest to you. This is annoying.
