Bobbi Brown is a very busy man. He is 60 years old and he has thirteen jobs. He is a postman, a
policeman, a fireman, a taxi driver, a school-bus driver, a boatman, an ambulance man, an accountant,
a petrol attendant, a barman, and an undertaker. Also, he and his wife, Magaret, have a shop and a
small hotel.
Bobbi 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 Bobbi 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
house on the island. He also delivers the beer to the island’s only pub. Then he helps Magaret in the
shop.
He says: “Magaret likes being busy, too. We never have holidays and we don’t like watching
televison. In the evenings Magaret makes supper and I do the accounts. At 10.00 we have a glass of
wine and then we got to bed. Perhaps our life isn’t very exciting, but we like it.”
