- instead of getting a job in a shop or restaurant for the summer @ 16+, they stay at home and farm or draw in silage.
- mass @ 8pm on a saturday evening is a revolution, as they can go straight to croker when the milking is done.
- buying a car but making sure it has a hitch.
- complaining about the weather, good or bad. it always too wet or too hot.
- never buying groceries in lidl or aldi, just sticking 'with what they know'!
- shopping for clothes once a year or only for an 'occassion coming up'!
