Average Brit man spends a month of his life searching for socks

The average British man spends a month of his life looking for socks, reveals a new survey.

And according to the new research, when he finds them he'll be off down the pub for around 10,585 hours, reports The Sun.

He watches 11 years of TV, learns to cook just four meals in his lifetime, sleeps with eleven partners and says sorry 1.9 million times.

The life of Mr Average—height 5ft 8in, weight 12st 7lb—has been revealed in a survey for shopping website Kelkoo.

It found men see buying things as a way of gaining status.

However, Mrs Average—5ft 4in and 10st 3lb—will do 80% of the real shopping. She'll date 24 men before finding Mr Right.

And she also does 7,300 miles of vacuuming carpet.
