Seamus lives and Works on the island of Gigha in the west of Scotland. Only 120 people live on the island in the Winter, but in the summer 150 tourists come by boat every day.

Every weekday Seamus gets up at 6:00 and makes breakfast for the hotel guests. At 8:00 he drives the island´s children to school. At 9:00 he gets the mail from the boat and delivers it to all the houses on the island. He also Works at the island´s only gas station. Then he helps Margaret in the shop

He says Margaret likes being busy, too. We never take vacations and we don´t like watching television. In the evenings Margaret makes supper and I pay the bill. At 10:00 we have a mug of tea and then we go to bed. Perhaps our life isn´t very exciting, but we like it.
