These days

Hi,
What is the difference between 'in those days' and 'on those days'?
  

Top answer

In those days refers to a long period of time: There were no cars in the Middle Ages and consequently people couldn't move quickly from place to place in those days. On those days refers to 24-hour periods: He used to come and see me every Monday and we went fishing on those days. CB
