00:00So you work at the co-op, do you? So you're meant to be in this morning?
00:11Yeah, I was meant to be in at 6 or 12 today. I got a message this morning off my boss just
00:16saying that the shop's closed, it's closed and all off. And they'd give us an update
00:22as and when it is. And then we had another update just to say that there was a big meeting
00:29at 9 o'clock and let us know. But yeah, that's about all I know.
00:33Yeah, so I know you didn't hear anything, obviously, we did last night while it was
00:37on for a bit. How does it feel hearing that the new shop is suddenly coming so close to
00:42where you work?
00:43It's scary really. And I feel sorry for anybody that was in the flat and whatever else. I'm
00:50hoping everybody's okay. That's all I can say.
00:59You're welcome.
