:08:22. > :08:26.latest figures. As we've been reporting this week, that's another
:08:26. > :08:31.sign that the economy is showing signs of turning the corner. Our
:08:31. > :08:35.business and economy editor, Douglas Fraser, reports.
:08:35. > :08:39.This is the bit of the economy that hits closest to home. So here's good
:08:39. > :08:43.news: the number of Scots in work between April and June was up by
:08:43. > :08:46.13,000, the highest number of jobs in more than four years. The number
:08:46. > :08:50.of Scots seeking work during those months, down by a modest 1000 to
:08:50. > :08:57.198,000, while more people are coming into the workforce to pick up
:08:57. > :09:02.on these opportunities. That takes the Scots unemployment rate to 7.2%.
:09:02. > :09:06.The UK, with a fall of 4000 in those seeking work, is at 7.8%. So what's
:09:06. > :09:08.behind these headline figures? This week, in addition to jobs and
:09:08. > :09:11.retail, we've got updates on Scottish business confidence, new
:09:11. > :09:15.orders, the housing market, airport passengers up, and inflation's down
:09:15. > :09:20.a bit. Casualties of the great downturn are using creative powers
:09:20. > :09:24.to fight back which can be difficult when you're not so young. After
:09:24. > :09:32.losing her job in manufacturing, she found it difficult to find a job but
:09:32. > :09:36.has set up a business selling her skills for therapy. If you have the
:09:36. > :09:41.patience and determination, there's nothing that can stop you. If one
:09:41. > :09:44.idea does not stop you move onto something else. Many people remain
:09:44. > :09:49.in temporarily or part-time jobs and wants permanent and still claim
:09:49. > :09:59.once. Many are not using the skills they want and then there's squeezed
:09:59. > :10:01.
:10:01. > :10:07.pay. The 42nd month of people being unable to provide full-time
:10:07. > :10:11.positions. But that is not such a squeeze on spending as it has been.
:10:11. > :10:20.Warm weather being one of the strong reasons for good retail figures last
:10:20. > :10:23.month, and success at Wimbledon was also good news. There is more
:10:23. > :10:29.confidence among consumers although not necessarily more money in their
:10:29. > :10:36.wallets. They can feel they spend a bit more. In addition to jobs and
:10:36. > :10:40.retail, we have Scottish business confidence, the housing market,
:10:40. > :10:43.airport passengers up and inflation down a bit. So all these signs are
:10:43. > :10:46.looking at least slightly better. The economy may now be turning the
:10:46. > :10:48.corner. But the concerns remain about the quality of jobs, and
:10:48. > :10:51.because of those squeezed household budgets, this doesn't look
:10:51. > :10:54.sustainable unless business invests more, and exports rise too.
:10:54. > :10:58.Meanwhile, on that foreign front, there's some more good news today: a

:18:26. > :18:32.far too long since the last one. atmosphere you get is brilliant. In

:20:54. > :21:00.years, does absence make the heart grow fonder? It's not changed over
:21:00. > :21:04.the last 50 years. The fans themselves want to prove they are
:21:04. > :21:11.the best supporters so there's a battle between the supporters and
:21:11. > :21:17.the players. What about the opposition? England's preparations
:21:17. > :21:24.have been dominated by Wayne Rooney, unsettled at Manchester United, but
:21:24. > :21:30.England feel settled enough to face Scotland. This is a fixture which
:21:30. > :21:35.has a lot of history and it is good in terms of our preparation that we
:21:35. > :21:43.are meeting a team that is highly motivated against us. The scene is
:21:43. > :21:47.set, the fans are ready and England and Scotland a week.
:21:47. > :21:51.I managed to waylay a true Scotland legend on his way into the stadium a
:21:51. > :21:55.few moments ago. Hall of famer and former skipper Willier Miller. I
:21:55. > :22:05.asked him if there could be such a thing as a friendly between the two
:22:05. > :22:11.nations. Probably not. I think it will be very different from any
:22:11. > :22:14.other friendly we are liable to take part in. It means more to Scotland
:22:14. > :22:20.and certainly the fans coming down will insist it is played any
:22:20. > :22:25.competitive manner. It sounds like from both camps this will be the
:22:25. > :22:31.case. A friendly but a competitive one and we are looking forward to
:22:31. > :22:41.it. They probably have better players than us so should they come
:22:41. > :22:41.
:22:41. > :22:48.out on top? They do have better players and we are against it. We
:22:48. > :22:53.are certainly the underdogs but that is how we like it. On the back of
:22:53. > :22:57.the performance and Croatia, it is another possibility for us to time
:22:57. > :23:01.and a good performance and a draw or a victory to build on that success.
