Which is the record labels Association Genaro Good morning warning Eric that's great news isn't it really exciting after 70 years of struggling suddenly we've got some fantastic news to share with everyone it's homegrown talent driving the market it is. The top 10 best selling albums last year by British acts and you are playing their wonderful Mr Ed. Sharon who had the most remarkable year he couldn't have scripted any better he got very greedy he had the most trained most downloaded and most purchased on cd and was purchased vinyl album with Divide Plus he had the biggest selling single of the year we shape of it which is one of the anthems of last year and you were just playing the Christmas number one which is by him as well so remarkably a for him but that actually mask the fact that we had loads of great talent breaking through as well so broken bone man who nearly year ago was winning I think 2 Britta was for breakthrough he his album his debut album Human actually sold more than a 1000000 copies which is brilliant we had female artist Juniper breaking through we had storms the flying the flag for grime has really become quite a commercial force now likes a little mix consolidating their status and exciting major new act and Sam Smith as well little car and sound for who won the Mercury Prize so it's British artists who are really driving it here and promoting British exports of music around the world as well and that means it takes changing I think they're broadening out I think I think perhaps some decades ago as we grow we are bit more tribal in our tastes and we like to certain type of music whereas now I think we have a much broader taste would like to dip into everything you know far more eclectic so appreciation of music I'd say where that ranging from classical Infocom Well music all the way to pop rock grime and everything else in between more music being streamed Yes So over 50 percent of the music consumption was on streaming services so it means it's really gone mainstream It also means you can no longer just talk about millennialism generations that means us oldies oldies are also streaming and kind of got to grips with it in course one of the big Christmas gifts this year with these voice activated smart speakers that you can just talk to and say play Bruce Springsteen or and it plays it so it's made streaming so much more easy and I think that's going to really massively transform music consumption going forward as well and the be more stream but vinyl also doing incredibly well resilient cd sells and vinyl $4000000.00 copies sold last year so the.

At the moment so there is a yellow warning in force from the Met Office to care for the fact that the winds could be gusting up to around 60 miles an hour 1st thing this morning which could in turn lead to travel disruption as the day goes by those winds he's behind it we're looking at a slightly more settled weather but what we have this wind with us today. Mix of some cloud a few bright spells but some showers as well and some of the showers could be heavy at times and could even be some hail in the mix maybe the funder as well temperatures up to 8 degrees dropping overnight about 5 a mainly dry night the winds will be eased by this point as well and now we're going to see this through into Thursday daytime starts the daytime tomorrow but that rain will claim as the day goes by for something a little bit drier and brighter possibly tomorrow afternoon and temperatures look at the 10 degrees as well so still quite mild there but it will be turning colder through Friday and then into the weekend Friday is looking like it will be a bit of a shower a day at times with temperatures only 6 degrees and then we're into the weekend and yes Saturday and Sunday both mainly dry days but bright and sunny days too with temperatures are only ever going to get about 4 degrees Celsius so kind of windy and occasionally Well the next couple of days but mild too before we don't see things turn towards the weekend and also a whole lot colder to thank you Charlie 17 minutes past 7. And the headlines this morning a shock to a restaurant as apologized after a chef posted online that she deliberately prepare the non dish for a vegan customer thousands of homes have been left without power a storm Ellen across the u.k. Bringing. Heavy rain in the Pentagon's gusts of up to 100 miles an hour if in recorded a Green Party campaign is the staging a protest in Church Stretton and Craven Arms today about this week's above inflation rise in the cost of rail ticket. Swish option comes to find the latest joining in and still today to be the fuel County leaving c b s from FIA. Coming up in a few minutes time and i gess England says its decision to tell hospitals to postpone planned surgery until the end of the month is necessary to ease the severe winter pressures and yet we're not there yet find out more about that story coming up in a moment or 2. But one of the headlines this morning members of the Labor Party Benard highlighting the price hikes in rail fares you have heard in the news that average rail ticket prices have risen by 3.4 percent across the u.k. The biggest increase to fares since 2013 Well today the Greens are out campaigning the party members are going to be interred Stretton and Craven Arms telling train uses to contact their constituency leaders to bring rail back into public ownership transport expert and Green Party member John White legs among those who've been there from 6 o'clock this morning and he joins us on the breakfast show today John good morning good morning have a blustery morning to be out doing this job it was very nice and windy and dark and a little bit cold a little bit bleak but it was very nice to talk to people what difference you think you make and it's a long process it will happen I'm absolutely sure that eventually in Britain we will discover we'll learn it will come to the point of view that our real privatized fragmentation our profit maximizing private company is this all the wrong way so we will succeed in bringing railways back into public ownership he'd only do that with a change of government but I'm not so sure about that I mean it's strange what happens around the world now this is not going to happen under a Conservative government has at the moment is not there's no doubt about that they're very firmly fixed to this this broken failed privatisation model so eventually enough of the Conservative M.P.'s will see So for example they do realise at the moment that shifting a 100000000 pounds over the last 10 years from from a river Trains Wales our rail our rail wage structure sending that to the German government in Burlington while we object to bring him back into public ownership they will see that that's pretty stupid and they will begin to change their minds but you say it's broken and failed and they would say no it isn't and we were hearing on the news yesterday that 97 pence out of every pound is invested back into the railways Well I don't believe that I mean I know we saw this difficulty. When talking about there's a lot of trouble talking about statistics what about the 130000000 pounds that has been returned in a bag marked Sweig from the Riva Trains Wales to the German government so that profit has been taken out of Britain and we're not getting the investment we're not getting new stations we're not getting electrification we're not getting new rolling stock we're not getting in pre frequency and people in Shropshire are suffering from a poor quality railway journey when railways were in public health was admittedly a long time ago now they weren't the paragon of virtue then you know I had a lot a lot of money I had a lot of difficulty with British Rail many many years ago but what we what we always were able to do with British Rail is hold them to account and at the moment the subsidy to privatized railway companies is twice as high in real terms as it was to British Rail and the British Rail of how that money we would have had a different outcome so I'm not I'm not trying to over optimistic rose tinted spectacles British Rail was a really good operator you know it did well it open stations it electrified and so on that's all going wrong we need to go back to proper public comptroller lower the fares invest in the railways especially Shropshire is a railway deficit we have poor quality train services people going to college people going to work all suffer on the station this morning need change Stretton we had a lot of people wondering what was going on because the 0621 to much to Piccadilly did not appear and there was no information so you know we have a problem and we've got to put it right John I have to take you to task on something you just said because come on this is a complete contradiction isn't it lower the same as you said and invest in the railways Yes you can't have it both ways yes you can why doesn't the taxpayer is going to pay yet the taxpayer will have to pay the amount of money that will have to be paid will not be more than the current subsidy to private railway operate so the taxpayer those who do not necessarily use the railways will pay for it yes and what they're when they they will be yes and what happens when that happens is very . Some call all the traffic problems on the a 49 on the a 5 on the motorways the building and people will will move away from the car journeys reduce congestion reduce pollution improve road safety and we'll have a railway system that does help people to get to work as you call it you will get more people on the trains and more commuters for instance exactly therefore it will be more like a cattle truck than he does now you know because if you look at what happens in Germany or what happens in France and Italy and Sweden they all do it you have high quality trains with high capacity with lower fares and that helps the road system to work more efficiently and helps the economy what have you been telling people this morning. To be saying what do you think that's my starting point and they're standing there and they're very grumpy They say that they're very cold when the morning they're standing on the station platform or even grumpy people who use children station a very robust you know the very top people especially 0615 on the order of the storm early in the morning you know they really are fed up this computer to Birmingham a commuter religion just let me go to Blackpool of all things and they're facing this 3.4 percent increase and they all make the point which is really interesting we might accept a fare increases if the quality was good but the quality of what we get is terrible and it's getting worse and then we get hit by if there's increase and we don't like it Don good to talk to you this morning thank you the time thank you very much all right leg Green Party member transport expert out at the Church Stretton railway station on the cold Wednesday in windy Wayne Rooney no really good morning from the breakfast tame n.h.s. England says it's decision to tell hospitals to postpone plan surgery until the end of the month is necessary to ease the severe winter precious officials say deferring routine work will free up specialists beds The move comes amid warnings by need doctors that pressing on the n.h.s. Have escalated rapidly over the festive period Emily union has more details morning Emily how bad is the situation the official estimate is around 55000 patients are going to be affected by these cancellations to. Ambulance trusts the east in the northeast of England say they are on the highest alert possible Milton Keynes University Hospital has been telling people only to turn up for emergency treatment and there's a doctor in Stoke who apologized on social media for what he said were 3rd world conditions in the hospital where he works so around the country it is a pretty difficult situation and yet Health chiefs say there's no crisis in the n.h.s. Yeah I mean that is a tricky one to navigate we know that the emergency precious panel met for the 2nd time yesterday they extended the deadline for delaying these non-urgent operations things like hip or knee replacement till the 31st of January so a lot of people are going to wait a lot longer for planned surgery but that will free up capacity for the most unwell patients cancer operations and other time critical procedures will be going ahead as planned but you know they're in such a tricky situation at the moment that they all have decided to allow patients to put on mixed sex wards so they can maximize bed availability you know so things are pretty difficult when he says severe winter pressures is it worse than it usually is. It's difficult to know for sure one of the sort of rules of thumb is that the number of calls 211199 if you look at the period between 23rd of January 23rd of December and the 1st of January this year compared to last year then those schools have gone up so we know people are calling in greater numbers and advice of people who own Well what should you do try speaking to a pharmacist see if they can sell you an over the counter remedy if that is possible dial 111 and get some advice over the phone fussed you could try getting a g.p.s.

Now you've safely got back everybody is what you've been doing exactly where you've been yes we spent Christmas in Nepal working with the good to Welfare Trust delivering football kits and football shirts through my charity the taking football to after and beyond the pale based are a short break so 12 people went out and we delivered in Katmandu car and around schools on the an opponent trail hard work. It was hard work especially the trek. Probably add to that the truck was 5 and a half days and was supposed to be quite a simple Trek but it was effectively climbing up steps for thousands of feet for several hours a day oh my goodness can't understand how to that was a lie it was amazing but it was very hard work yes new nice at the back sometimes just to make sure everybody else was safe it was going in the right direction. But it was the whole experience was amazing 1st time you've been 1st time I've been there some of you don't want these football Yes 1st time I've been away with you in the gun and they're all amazing and the experience was just tell me about the reaction when you give the shots away the shots out of these children . It's just. They're just so grateful you know they don't have a lot. On up with bag of shirts and some pencils and lollipops and they're just so happy you know the reception we got was fantastic yeah I think all of the schools to be honest we did 11 schools or orphanages. And you get different sort of reactions in each place you go but what is obvious is that you know Nepal is one of the poorest countries in the world and it's quite obvious that the kids haven't got anything. So you know you can give them you know the kit we had and we're very fortunate so we had lots of pencils and stationery from Queens Park Rangers from the club shop and it went down a storm really. Remember Sandra in one of the orphanages The kids were just all over and of course and great photos of us with the kids all around and you know she's chatting away and everything and that you're quite impressed by their English their English was amazing. One of her little girls was only 11 and. Yeah it was fantastic it was an emotional experience it it was yes the 2nd orphanage that we went to those a little boy he had. Twisted feet his feet were quite large and he'd managed to come over so a perfect ball socks on him. I mean he was just giggling the whole time he smiles and it was it was small it was just amazing work and then. One of the ladies about some shoes so we were trying to get some shoes on him and he was not going anywhere or take up our shoes. So it was a struggle so I managed to get some of we put those on and he just sat on the ground with his head in this nice and just laughed and I just think yeah I think that might have been the 1st time you had a parachute on a city that has I think that's going to stay with me for up. But a very long time and it brings us all but worth this nailed it doesn't mean that's the whole point of it really we call it aids through football. You know football is the sort of conduit for giving giving this stuff out but I think with the Kenya trips and also with this one on the Nepal trip you know when you see the reactions and you see what it means and you know I've been lots and lots of times now to these countries and I think the thing for me is when I see other people I Sunder on their 1st trip and the reaction that they have because that's what makes it really . You know the club's fantastic and we handed out gear from clubs like Manchester United from England. Loss of shoes Bre kit again you know and it does it means an awful lot and suddenly they can tell you all about it those who've been before like Neil but you really don't know what to expect you get it you know you know obviously I've watched Neil on on Facebook for a couple years going to Nepal and not Nepal sorry Kenya and thinking that would be amazing to do you know I've yeah so I've finally got to. See 1st woman what they do and so you need to do can you one. Of the demand Yeah yeah I still available. That we had a fantastic link while we were there as well one of the retired Air Force guys Gary Rogan snakes loadmaster And when we were in Kathmandu the gentleman the retired captain from the good because that was showing us around and assisting us the 2 got talking it turns out that Gary was on Bravo November the Chinook in the Falklands War and it would have transported the captain when he was just joined to go because aged 19 I think it really from San Carlos Bay to goose air from to speak green San Carlos by in the Chinook in 1902 this captain was nice to have the last summit I'll do a story on it and get some more information but it's a fantastic link really listening to what you do in a Christmas day. Center. Paragliding I thought you might have done so I can get that yes I yes. I didn't put up a fight when I was there I was it was good I'm glad I glad I did it yeah so good Christmas all around then you know yeah it was amazing experience I'm a very rewarding to run off the side of a cliff a 6 and a half 1000 feet which is a really ridiculous thing to do than plastic Yeah that was my Christmas jumper screaming all the way. But it was an experience I have the tick and I won't be repeating it you know your feet I know you would know I know I have promised my son no government for 16th birthday in March but I'll be watching from the ground. With you let me go please tell my son what's next new Kenya 28th of March 10 people signed up so far few more places left. As you know everything we do is so financed anybody can go. But they pay for it what they pay for it yeah yeah but you know it's a fantastic trip we do doing a shorter $1.00. It's 8 days we have quite a few people clued in Steve begins you may know it should be town shoes pre-schoolers coming with us for his 1st trip so yeah look forward to it but beyond that we are continuing to prep boxes from going back to more boxes and get more kit sorted this morning with the team and it will just continue to roll on what you call it taking football Arias taking football to Africa and beyond literacy both thank you so much for coming in thank you thanks very much Southern Evans and we came out and you heard from Ari I'm sure you've spent Christmas in Nepal with a group about this making deliveries is part of that appeal are you have taking football to Africa and beyond Jim Hawkins weekday mornings from 9 you never know what you're going to hear next on the phone at the half my dad might but I'm going out with a woman. On b.b.c. Radio shop show but you know that you never win when you need to I don't think if. You have children I think it's quite the opposite I've always regretted having to do to get back in touch with them and tell me how I felt need to draw the interview to a close surely because the birth is imminent. June day mornings from the b.b.c. Radio show up. Good morning it's 17 minutes to 8 Adams grammar school has been in existence for centuries but pupils heading back there today in Newport will notice one big change the name is changing to reflect its links with a special company it will be called have a dash is Adams You might remember this controversy over a similar proposed name change change at the Abraham Darby Academy in Telford where they want to call it haberdashers Abraham Darby reporter Les Walton has been to Newport to meet the headmaster of the school Gary Hickey to find out more. Grammar School has existed for nearly 400 years what people are very unaware of though is that in fact the name Adams grammar school has only existed for just over 60 years so it's the actual. Shortest amount of time in the school's history that it's actually been called one particular name so what was it before before that it was Newport grammar school and it originally started nearly 4 centuries ago as the Free School new year new name it's a different name it won't be necessarily a new name in as much as we're not getting rid of Adam's right Ok so now I'm going to be well it's going to be from the 1st of January instead of Adam's grammar school it will be. Adams We will always be a grammar school now what are the things about doing that I mean there is a thing about reputation isn't and people know Adams grammar school Newport start calling you have a dash is the might be a bit of confusion there is it the same is it not the same I think that's very true to a certain degree but most people that we've spoken to about this are actually quite surprised. Grammar School hasn't always been for for centuries Adams grammar school so when we announced the name change we had actually very quickly after we announced it to parents and the pupils an email from a 92 year old old boy of the school who now lives in Guatemala well who were commenting on adding the haberdasher's bit which he thought was a very good idea to connect to the history and then a little bit tongue in cheek he actually said actually what is this Adams grammar school anyway well because obviously when he was at school it was Newport grammar school so the entire existence of Adam's grammar school for him meant nothing I'm impressed the fact. Marley's that he still find out about the name change yes Word spreads does it does it now the reason it's called habit Actually it will get on to right now because I've got 2 peoples with me James sale and Sam Hart James tell us a little bit about this don't know what what's this is business I have a dash is one of the 12 livery companies in London and they sort of oversee the school and they have I think about 12 schools themselves including primary schools . And they have always been historically linked with the schools and want to have a national do well a habit of these days isn't so involved with the they have to sort of take an active role in overseeing education within their company now it all sounds very academic and sort of high end as it were which I'm sure it is so you've been involved in something a bit more streetwise at the school and you tell us about that yeah I think it's great it's kind of no Remember how good the top doctors are for others and what the benefits and opportunities they can give to the students recently I've actually been granted some funding through the haberdasher's through the Thomas on a friend a course in February which I'm very excited for but also they've been very supportive if I don't say I'm a school radio which and I set up with some friends about a year ago and it's very strong in the new year so we're looking for in a feature on the name change especially so it's going to become habit dashes Adams How do you and the rest of the students take it what do you think of it I think it was controversial to put it mildly. But after a bit of time to think I think most of the students will see that it's actually going to benefit and in the future people just don't like change no not really but I think it's important to remember. Adams will always be known as Adams Long live. Los Walton talking to pupils James sale and Sam heart as well as the headmaster Gary Hickey at the newly named habitat is Adam school in Port Talbot is to eat the headlines to their shops restaurants apologized after a chef posted online that she deliberately prepared a non Deegan dish for a vegan customer thousands of homes have been left without power a storm Eleanor crosses the u.k. Bringing winds and heavy rain and health service managers in England have insisted there is no crisis in the n.h.s. Despite their decision to extend the postponement of all non-urgent operations and routine hospital outpatient appointments to the beginning of next month it's why shops are. To Exist. And still today to be. Yes from fear. That you can take up a new year's resolution of getting fit doing more exercise maybe getting on that treadmill the exercise bike maybe doing some jogging what kind of music gets you motivated what researches in Sport and Exercise Science at the University of Cumbria want to find out which kind of music motivates people to fitness the most and whether it varies depending on where you live Jeff thought is senior lecturer in coaching and sport performance at the University of Cumbria Jeff good morning good morning Eric how are you going to find out where we're asking people like you and everybody else around the country and around the world hopefully that will make this into the largest music survey of a conducted Yeah because in the literature about what John or of music people prefer and certainly around most of the world the tendency seems to be about western dance music when you go into a gym when you do an exercise class now I'm pretty chilly not every party prefers that kind of music to listen to people you know we don't that's what we're trying to find out so people can go in and fill out a very short survey Eric only takes a couple of minutes so you can do a search online for the University of fitness music and hopefully will we want to get about $200000.00 respondents presumably if you get to do stuff like on a treadmill or an exercise bike or you know real physical exercise you're going to want music with a bit of a beat. Well yeah and that's why this Weston dance music is very popular because it does have the right bait and tempo that conducive to the exercise classes and the level of intensity there that we would like people to exercise out but to some people we know in our music improved performance improves mood whilst exercising and reduces boredom etc But you know not everybody's going to like this kind of music so not my actually become a barrier to people staying a little bit longer or joining a particular gym or going to a particular exercise class so use extended standing this is the survey worldwide worldwide we asked Eric we want and people from all around the globe to fill it in because it would surely there's differences around the world in how people and the type of music they want to exercise from India down to you know China and you know in African nations what is it that they want to do yet because when you said when we said earlier on you know it might be that it depends on where you live I was thinking out of an accolade the difference in in Cumbria perhaps disruptor But we're talking internationally ironically Yeah we're talking internationally even within the British Isles there could be some differences I was chatting to a colleague earlier in saying it would be really interesting to find out whether there are interested differences within little pocket surrounded the British Isles and because it is all these western dance music and the literature in the research is typically done in Western universities based with western students and looking at him and made between 18 and 30 but we know there's an awful lot of people outside of that particular demographic that exercise so we just don't know what they prefer How can people help you out again Jeff Yeah if they go online and do a search for University of Canberra and fitness music they'll get a link to to a survey that is going to complete couple minutes of your time and hopefully they're of shed a lot of light on what people prefer good to talk to Jeff thank you Jeff Thorpe a senior lecturer in coaching and sport performance at the University of Cumbria this is one of your favorites having to work out. Come on that gets you going doesn't do you want to get open don't dig around now that's raising eyebrows Yeah that's about as much as we're going to get isn't it 8 minutes to 8 morning for nearly 50 years the name Gaston Pate has been a familiar one for moms and dads Intel thought his children have wanted to learn how to dance. With paint peeling from the walls they were now down school is looking a little dated so Albo There's been to Telford to meet the man vowing to reinvigorate the school and launch it into its next glittering phase. The entrance we've got 3 but we've got to call it units here next to us there are horror in it so they're going to be going my name's prostitutes and I am the producer and owner of the arts and Telford so you might have heard of us because we're called tact and we are a state school and theatre company so what made you get into performing arts myself so I was originally I was a classical classically trained musician so on the pianist and then from there I kind of did theatre work you know I do bits and bobs flying over to Geneva there's a theatre Academy in Geneva that I do some work force of musical director. Just as a musical director what does that involve Ok so I I take all things musical from the very 1st point in a rehearsal process to the stage and it involves me taking it to turn the stage where bring an orchestra in and be conducting So what's the history of guest on pain because this is quite a story. Yeah I mean just on pain is it again is a name that people will know and it's. Done school that's been set up now for almost 50 years and was founded by Shirley gust on who run the school to huge success and and had a massive massive involvement in theater introduction and we wanted to make sure that that's something that stays here you know just on pain has its own productions providing dancers followed pantomimes So this is all stuff that's really important for our county in its heyday it would have been thriving that have been something in every room absolutely he's playing people community justly building up to putting on big performances and and crucially teaching for example so this is a syllabus schools so they do dance qualifications in ballet type and modern and that was the main kind of bread and butter of the school and I mean the school is still open you know you still got your dunces you know in their ballet gear coming out excited about what they're doing in the classroom costume store so this will be actually updated over the next couple of weeks and there's a absolutely massive costume here so you've got the history that we talk about when is it just a case of the times have changed or maybe it's just a case of of bringing it up to date and changing with those times yeah and education changes constantly For example I will be playing the piano of symbolic classes which is something that doesn't happen a lot unless you are very kind of highest levels of training other old academy a dance or other dance schools where you might have a pianist so in terms of the deadline what is that deadline for what happens if you get there and it's not quite ready what is going to be ready but basically we've we've got to make sure that studios are ready that's the priority and you know that there has been a relative period of uncertainty at the school over the last 12 months and you know we kind of accept that but that's also an invitation for people to come and see that what's going to happen moving forward is completely certain and that kind of brings us to the now and today and what we're doing here. Just on paying. First things the many oil that door if you want to go along to the open day that Roth mentioned this Saturday the 6th of January unit 15 on Stafford business park thing starts at 9 o'clock in the morning demonstrations and an opportunity to have ago some tasty sessions and all the information on the website it is all one word the art center Telford dot com 4 minutes to 8 Next is the 1st of the big high street retailers to take stock following Christmas and New Year sales there was also out this morning making plans been looking closely at the performance of our biggest retailers in the run up to Christmas and joins us on the brain for so today hello make the morning Good morning Eric morning have a new year and you next want to volatile trading this time last year how's it fair this time it's kind of a lot better full of gloom and doom before 7 o'clock when the figures came out as everyone else was expecting to see a downturn Aloa be how they came in with like sousing other stripping out any new store openings 1.5 percent which is not a sham poll champagne cocky. News but at the same time it's far better than most people are expecting miracles it may deliver the message that perhaps retires by the better Christmas than we gave them credit for was going to say just your doom and gloom evaporators you to extend to the rest of the high street now. I think I've said all along that I think there's going to be some winners but I think we're going to be a lot of losers I mean what we've got to remember is the next point quite eloquently last year the devaluation of the pan meant imports into the country to sell goods in the shops became more expensive people have been getting the pyrolysis So they've got some might lose what little money they've got to go around further So they've had to become a lot canny are a lot sharper and that's taking a toll on the retires you know that if we don't Spain they can't make a profit and a lot of retailers there are fixed obsessed with this idea that you've got to sell the stuff before Christmas die or be left. There on the shelves or on the hoax you know you just what you don't want so the Saudis now style eyeball in the South Star in November and it's a balancing act to be perfect because it's better to sell the stuff of cheap a make either a small profit on a soul than to be left with it on the racks afterwards and not know what to do with it but the fact is that next as gnats harassing right now a profit guidance for the 1000000 to 725000000 which suggests that the poll was probably better the next was expecting Yes indeed I was one of the way of sort of gathering intelligence as to how things are going is a footfall both in on the history and in the malls as well has that been well national damn well the last figure of go is full Boxing Day and this is for all stores not just next and that was down for a half percent Now these figures out to die for next cover the Nov 1st to do you think it was Christmas Eve period which is when stores should be making all their money for the year and if they can't do it in that period then they really are all in trouble so to speak and of course what's made it worse this year is is the fact that more shopping online. This is highlighted in these figures to die for next in the south was in the stores or Dan 6 percent but sawzall Lowen were 14 percent or so more than offsetting the losses of the stores effectively making Always good to talk to you thank you that's our finance expert Mickey Clark coming up after news a chef and Albright has made national headlines after seeming to suggest she spiked a vegan and he had all the details from her partner and the Cohen author of restaurant few minutes on.
