How are you today, Neil?

0:27

I'm very well, thank you, Beth. How about you?

0:30

I'm very good.

0:31

So what topic are we talking about in this episode?

0:36

OK, well, today's episode is all about habits and routines.

0:42

Now we talked about our favourite foods a few weeks ago.

0:47

But today we'll talk about our meal times and routines for eating.

0:52

Mm, sounds good!

0:54

What do we mean by a routine, Beth? Is it different to a habit?

0:59

Well, they are similar, but a habit is something we do regularly.

1:05

So, for example, I eat an apple and a banana most days.

1:11

— Ooh, very healthy. — Yeah.

1:13

A routine, though, is slightly different.

1:16

It's usually more about the time that we do something and the way we do something.

1:22

So, I have my breakfast at 6am every day.

1:27

OK.
