The man with thirteen jobs

Seumas McSporran is a very busy man. He is 60 years old and he has thirteen jobs. He is a postman, a fireman, a taxi driver, a school-bus driver, a boatman, an ambulance man, an accountant, a petrol attendant and a barman. Also, he and his wife, Margaret, have a shop and a small hotel.

Seumas 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 Seumas gets up at 6.00 and makes breakfast for the hotel guests. 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 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 accounts. At 10.00 we go to bed. Perhaps, our life isn’t very exciting, but we like it.

What is Seumas’ age?

What means of transport do the guests of Gigha use to get to the place?
