    Watching the first of the new Breakfast shows for 2017 on T.V. 1 this morning and all everyone is talking about is the absence of summer. I brought up the next ten day forecast for Auckland on my computer this morning and nothing to write home about either. They were saying the long term forecast for early February is for unusually cool conditions too. Slightly grumpy. Wonder if there is just a little bit of truth with CVT's shocker announcement about very poor summer weather effects today...hope none of it rubs off on HLG.

    I think it will impact sales in Jan and Feb, but those are pretty slow sales months anyway. December sales would be strong as people wouldn't of expected the summer we've had and been preparing for a better summer.

    I did go into Glassons and Hallebsteins at North West at 2pm today and neither had any customers at all - but to be honest the whole mall was dead. There also wasn't much winter range. Lots of sales on shorts.

    How's the summer been in Australia? Hopefully a hot one and Glassons can continue its strong performance there.

    What time of the day, morning or afternoon? Maybe they stock up in morning ready for the lunchtime rush on all those $10 sales.

    I drop in at different times of the day and racks are always full. Maybe a strategy to always have maximum product out there.

    When do they usually provide an Xmas trading update? I'm presuming it'll come soon?

    Neither does it want to look like nothing is selling. But they will have their experience and Mkt psychology sorted so I'm ignorant.

    Reminder for you Jeremy
