Life is busy for builders, so it’s important for you to make the most of your time. If you find yourself with a day to spare, there’s plenty you can do to keep yourself occupied.

We’ve put together some ideas so if you’ve 24 hours free, you could achieve any of the following.

Fly somewhere exotic

A whole day to spare means you’ll have time to fly from London to Sydney, with an hour or two to spare. A flight to the other side of the world will take around 23 hours including a layover on the way.

Test drive a new car

Whether you’re looking for a new car or just window shopping, use the opportunity to have a day of fun. Plenty of dealerships will allow you to test drive a vehicle for 24 hours, so whether you’re in the market for a sensible Citroen, or something a little more lavish like a Lexus, it’s a good excuse to spend a day on the road.

Don’t forget, if you’re travelling to a temporary place of work you can also claim tax back of travel expenses in your tax rebate.

Watch the Le Mans Race

If motorsports are your thing, you’re in luck. The oldest racing event takes place over the course of one day and night, so if you’re looking for something to do, you can get a ticket here.

Walk to France

A journey from London to Calais is just under 100 miles, meaning it’ll take you just shy of a day on foot. There’s the small issue of crossing The Channel, but there are plenty of ways around that – you could hop on a boat, take a train or get some exercise and swim!

Make it through all of the Lord of the Rings movies

If you’re up to the challenge, watching the entire Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit movies in a row will take you just under 20 hours. That leaves you with enough time for breaks in between.
