The three "ING"s refer to betting, drinking and tipping, the ending for each of which is ING. The British people are great lovers of betting. It is estimated that the total amount staked on all forms of gambling exceeds £2,000 million, or 1/20 of all earnings. This is a reduced figure. In 1976, the amount was more than £8,000 million. Tipping is a custom which originates from Britain. As elsewhere in the West, the tip depends on the type and extent of the service you have received. In some hotels, a service charge of 10% and 15% will be added to your bill.
