What We Brits like to do on the weekends

The weekends are a time for family for the Brits. Parents go to work on all five days of the week. We, therefore, make it a point to go shopping with our families on Saturdays. The Sunday, for us, is a day for prayer and hope. Most of the people visit the church and then go home and take rest. We mainly dedicate our time to performing the household chores like washing the clothes, gardening and other odd jobs.

Until very recently shops in Britain were supposed to remain closed on Sundays but not anymore. So, now the two main activities we Brits engage in on weekends are going to the church and shopping. Many people go shopping the whole day long instead of visiting the church. There are others who combine both of these activities on weekends. Some of us believe that it is important to spend our weekends on a tour away from home. Some of us pack our bags for a caravan tour, while others go touring in their family 4×4 cars.

We also engage ourselves in indoor as well as outdoor activities on weekends. The most common indoor activity is watching television. Almost all houses have at least one television set. Other popular leisure activities during weekends include listening to the radio, going for a movie outdoors, listening to pre recorded music, DIY and eating outside. We also entertain friends and guests at our homes or ourselves go out and meet friends and relations during weekends. The outdoor sports we engage ourselves in are tennis and football and if there is a derby on weekends, we are either on the galleries chanting songs of the football club we support or at home glued to the television doing the same.
