A day in the life of Peter Maxwell

Peter Maxwell is unemployed. He is 24.

" I usually get up at about eight o'clock. Then I have breakfast -coffee or tea, and some toast. After this I go down to the library and read the paper. There are a lot of us at the library. We never say we're unemployed but we know. I look at all the possible jobs in the papers (this takes about a minute! ), I read the sports and the arts pages, and soon it's time for lunch so I go off down to the shops for bread, milk, fresh vegetables and 25 pence worth of cheese. I like shopping, and I like cooking now, too. On the way back from the shops I buy a local paper and look at the job advertisements over lunch (soup and bread and butter).

After " lunch" on Mondays and Wednesdays I go to a carpentry class. These classes are free for unemployed people. It's important to do a lot of things when you're unemployed. You need a routine for the day. On the other days of the week I go for walks if the weather's all right, or I read. At about six o'clock I start preparing the Big Meal of the day. I take a lot of time over this. It's usually vegetables and cheese, or sometimes spaghetti bolognaise. After supper my wife and I read, or play chess. Every Friday we go to a pub, or to the cinema. I don't watch TV much. Usually at 10.30 we turn off the heater and go to bed".
