This is my daily programme. I wake at about seven o’clock and then it is time for me to get up. I like a cold shower every morning, so I put on my dressinggown and slippers and go to the bathroom. The water feels very cold on winter mornings, but I rub myself hard with the towel and soon I feel quite warm.
Then I shave, brush my teeth, wash my face and go back to the bedroom to dress. I brush and comb my hair, take a clean handkerchief out of the drawer and have breakfast at a quarter past eight. After breakfast I sit and read my morning paper. If the

weather is fine, I usually walk to my office. At nine o’clock the day’s work begins. At twelvethirty I have a break for lunch. I generally finish my work about six o’clock. Then I have a cup of tea and a biscuit, and in summer I spend an hour or so outof doors, play a few games of tennis or volleyball.
We have supper about seventhirty or eight o’clock and then we sit and talk, or listen to the wireless. Often in summer we take out the car and go for a run in the country; in winter we go to the cinema or the theatre. But that is not often. I have a lot of work to do, and usually after supper I read or write until twelve or one o’clock.
