00:00 Good afternoon, it's Chris here with your top three stories today, Monday August the 7th.

00:11 And number two, 14 Sheffield streets plagued by anti-social behaviour according to police reports.

00:17 And number three, Sheffield Retro, 36 photos of some of the best loved traders at City's Old Castle Market.

00:24 That's it from me, have a great day and we'll see you tomorrow.

00:27 I'll start with Michelle, we're no more than asking people what's a nice thing to do on a sunny day in Sheffield if they in fact stick around.

00:33 What's something you've got planned for the holiday?

00:36 We're hoping if the weather stays nice, we'll go to Grace Park, go round the Animal Farm, have fun in the park.

00:42 And we've actually got pennies, a few pennies, which is quite cheap, £6.

00:47 So something fun for the family to do.

00:50 Is it difficult to plan something or does it come quite naturally?

00:54 I am quite an organised person so I have got quite a few things planned.

00:58 That was just one of the cheaper days out that I've tried to book somewhere local.

01:04 We enjoy going to the park, don't we?

01:08 We like going to Hound Park, the new one.

01:11 The climbing frame is quite beautiful.

01:14 Yeah, they've got the water features there, not like anything else in Sheffield especially.

01:19 So we like quite a few parks don't we?

01:24 So Edgwife Park, Ford Stand, Spiral Park, the train park, the coal-living park.

01:29 I thought that was something a bit more interactive going on.

01:32 Yeah, playgrounds and fun.

01:35 Have you got anything planned for the summer?

01:38 Well, we're going away.

01:41 Bomb Sheffield!

01:44 We like going to the peaks as well, the walk, we like going out on the bike as well.

01:50 It's a bit of a sunny evening, it's really nice, you get a little bit of wildlife.

01:54 I'll be having a pizza with us.
