:06:03. > :06:06.When the service is running reliably then I think it is a good service,

:06:07. > :06:09.but I am absolutely honest when I say there are still too many

:06:10. > :06:13.incidents and that is where the billions that we are putting in,

:06:14. > :06:16.that will reduce these incidents and they will keep

:07:49. > :07:52.grey. Thereby a a lot of cloud around but I managed to find some

:07:53. > :07:57.sunshine. I don't know how but there was a couple of hours towards the
