Example
Every working day, I get up around seven in the morning. I go downstairs and have breakfast. At quarter to eight I have a wash, shave, brush my teeth and put my make up on. I leave the house at ten past eight and arrive at work at half past.
I have lunch for 30 minutes around one and leave work between half four and five. I get home at five or just after and eat dinner at six.
In the evenings, I usually work on some stuff on my computer for a bit and watch television or sports for a while. I go to bed by 11.
At the weekend, I wake up later, normally about eight or nine.
