Contexts with "flag broom"
In the Netherlands, it is the custom that, when during the construction of a house the highest point has been reached and the roof is ready for tiling, the client treats the construction workers to so-called "tile beer" to celebrate this. A flag is then placed on the ridge of the house. If the client is too stingy to treat, not a flag, but a broom is placed.
В Нидерландах есть обычай, что, когда при постройке дома дошли до наивысшей точки, и крыша готова к кладке черепицы, хозяин угощает строителей так называемым «черепичным пивом», чтобы это отпраздновать. На коньке крыши ставится флаг. Если хозяин скупой и отказывается угостить работников, ставят не флаг, а метлу.
