JOHN’S WORKING DAY
Well, tomorrow is quite a busy day for me. I’ll get up at a quarter past six and have breakfast about half an hour later. I’ll start my trip to work at a quarter past seven, which usually takes me about three quarters of an hour.

I’ll get back to the office at about two, and will spend the next three to four hours writing a report, which I hope to finish by 5.30.
