Peter Baker lives and works on the island of Gigha in the West of Scotland. Only 120 people live on Gigha but in summer 150 tourists come by boat every day.
Every weekday Peter 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 collects the post from the boat and delivers it to all the houses on the island. He also delivers the beer to the island's only pub. Then he helps Margaret in the shop.
He says: "Margaret likes being busy, too. We never have holidays and we don't like watching television. In the evenings, Margaret makes supper and I do the account. At 10:00 we have a glass of wine and then we go to bed. Perhaps, our live isn't very exciting, but we like it".
