00:00Oh, like, do you mean the brand? More local shop, local producer from less big supermarkets.
00:12We have, I think we have enough of that. So we want more independent shops and coffee
00:17shops, which are a lot, like, they are a lot here. They are quite a bit where I live, but
00:23yeah, more of that.
00:24With many empty units remaining around the city, with some small businesses citing the
00:29cost of living crisis as their reason for closure, what would locals like to see bought
00:35to their high streets?
00:37Oh, gosh. OK. I mean, we've got quite a lot of different sort of variety down here. Obviously,
00:43it's a shame the banks are closing. My dad's a NatWest bank. He banks at NatWest and obviously
00:49that's gone, so he can't do anything anymore. He has to be shown how to do it online. So
00:53I'd say the banks are quite important down here. We did lose a local bakery, which was
00:57a shame.
00:58A chemist, definitely. There's no chemist. The nearest one is probably Cribs Corset.
01:05Right. I love coming to these charities. I've always find something interesting, even if
01:11I'm not looking for anything special or particularly. There's always a nice book, cooking or, I
01:18don't know, bags. I thought it would be really nice as well. Yeah. I think there is also
01:26a nice place to chat also. You always find someone somewhere and I'm very nervous. I'm
01:33very nervous. Yeah, but it's fine. It's nice to see, like, they always share their stories
01:38or, oh, I've read this book or I got this from somewhere else, etc.
01:45Doctor, dentist, because, well, as you know, I'm sure we have really problem with dentists,
01:53lack of dentists and surgery.
