British women spend more than three weeks on household chores each year,a new research has found.

The study revealed that more than 40 per cent get less than an hour of me time a week,using so-called free time ironing,washing and dusting,reports the Daily Express.

On average,women stop doing housework at 8 pm. Add in a full-time job and they are working 50 hours per week.

Four in 10 feel guilty if they leave their house untidy and 92 per cent multi-task,doing several chores at once,the report said.

More than 10 per cent spend four hours a day on household tasks,equal to two months a year,research by electronics company Philips PerfectCare found.

Half of women say lack of time is the main obstacle to keeping the home clean and tidy,with misbehaving children coming second.
