"There are 365 days in a year. We sleep 8 hours a day,so we have 122 days for sleeping. Then our
work time has 243 days left. But there are 52 weekends in a year. Each weekend is two days. We lose
another 104 days a year for work. It takes us about one hour to have breakfast and supper. This comes
to 15 days over a year. But we can' t work all that time--we need a holiday. Let' s say we have three
weeks' holiday. We don't work all day. Four free hours each evening takes up 61 days. We have to
remember that we get 2 days' holiday at Easter, 3 at Christmas and 1 at the New Year.
There are also 4 Bank holidays. Take those 10 days away and we have 32 days for work. But then
we have one and a half hours' lunch every day, and half an hour' s coffee break. That comes to 30 days
a year. This means that we have only a few days left for work every year!
