00:00I saw a post in a newspaper that a restaurant that had been closed for some decades is reopening.

00:09Well, actually, some of them are closing up, but some are reopening.

00:15Well, I know of one that is reopening. Some are closing up because of the present condition of things in the country,

00:22the economy, cost of living, the rising cost of mortgages and rents and all.

00:28I tend to go to a little microbrewery. I come from Derbyshire, so there's lots of little pop-up microbreweries I like real ill.

00:37So they're where I really go. If I'm going to a bar, I'm not really fussy. I'll just go in any one that sells nice drinks.

00:45I haven't noticed any bar or restaurant closures. City centre, I mean, I only really stay around the city centre area.

00:52I live in the city centre, so I've noticed more bars opening and more restaurants opening.
