take in about 25% of their annual takings. Customers come in around | :24:23. | :24:30. | |
July asking about Christmas. Most of stocking fillers and decorations. | :24:30. | :24:37. | |
Sol are already doing a rowering trade. Anything that's new, they are | :24:37. | :24:42. | |
spreading the cost. That's really important. Money's tight. They are | :24:42. | :24:49. | |
something every week. There is Halloween, difficult alley and | :24:49. | :24:52. | |
Bonfire Night still to celebrate. With 77 days and five hours to go, | :24:52. | :24:57. | |

Christmas tree. This is a time to be digging out your winter woollies. | :26:14. | :26:19. | |

on the way for everybody. It will turn much colder and windier over | :26:23. | :26:31. | |
All courtesy of that lump of blue air you can see singing south. All | :26:31. | :26:36. | |
the warm air ebbing away. Very cold air coming in from the north. We go | :26:36. | :26:44. | |
