How We Spend Our Weekends
Sarah, a researcher at London Life Magazine, shares the results of a new survey about weekend habits in the UK. The team asks 1,000 adults in Boston, Seattle, and London about their free time.
According to the report, 45% of people wake up early and go shopping on Saturday morning. James, 34, from Manchester, says: 'I always get up early, grab my alarm clock, and go straight to the shops.'
Many people also stay active. About 30% of adults do sport or go swimming on Saturday afternoon. Olivia, 28, who lives in Austin, explains: 'I come from a very active family. We usually go for a walk or play football on Sundays.'
However, the biggest surprise in the report is the number one weekend activity. It is not shopping, and it is not sport. 65% of people say their favourite weekend activity is simply doing nothing at all. They sleep in, stay in their pyjamas, and relax at home for hours.
