When did you last have sex?
These days we're always being told to have more sex.
A recent poll revealed that three-quarters of couples in the UK have trouble mustering enough energy at the end of the day to get in the mood. And it's becoming all too easy for people living in a city to get stuck in the all-work-no-play rut, not allowing enough extra hours to indulge in proper playtime with their partner.
However, according to last week's survey, when the British do have sex our favourite bonking time is Saturday night. I went to the Southbank on Sunday to see whether Londoners there really are getting down to any business in the bedroom.
NOT FOR AGES
Oliver, 36, lawyer
Sadly, I'm having a bit of a dry patch at the moment, so not for six months or so. I need to change that really, don't I? It's hard getting it in London, though.
THIS MORNING
Chris, 34, machine operator
I work nights, so I came back for a quickie with my girlfriend at about 6am. It was a great shag, actually. Short isn't necessarily a bad thing when you've only got limited time.
TWO WEEKS AGO
Jason, 18, unemployed
It was with my mate's friend. I was a bit drunk, though, so I don't remember much, to be honest. Shame. She was pretty hot, I can remember that much. And I'm pretty sure we used a condom.
LAST NIGHT
Matt, 24, advertising assistant
With a girl I'd just met. We were at a festival together and went back to my tent during one of the band's sets. Think we kept all the other campers awake, though. Wish I'd got her number.
LAST MONTH
Katherine, 28, shop manager
Not for a while, actually. I'm about to catch a train to see my boyfriend. We meet only every month, so hopefully tonight is the night. In fact, I'll probably drag him to the nearest toilet as soon as I get to the station.
TWO DAYS AGO
Flora, 30, PA to bank director
With my boyfriend of five years. We're still at it like rabbits, it's awesome. I feel like there's more to try too, but I don't think my next ideas should be printed in a paper.
A MONTH AGO
Katy, 26, photographer
At a party. I nearly got lucky twice in one night actually but the second guy didn't have a johnny and I didn't want to ruin a good night by getting pregnant.
JUNE
Nick, 43, banker
Not since the beginning of the summer when I was on holiday with my wife. It's not such a regular occurrence these days.
TWO-AND-A-HALF YEARS AGO
Greg, 33, construction engineer
Er I was going out with someone at the time. Since then I haven't had any. I'm beginning to get desperate.
