00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,880
Speaker 1: Donald Jamayo is our Australia correspondent with US this morning, Donna,

2
00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:06,920
Speaker 1: good morning to you. Thousands of retail jobs set to disappear.

3
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:07,640
Speaker 1: What's going on?

4
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:11,160
Speaker 2: Oh, well, this is terrible news because a major fashion

5
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:14,600
Speaker 2: retailer looks like it's well teetering on the brink of

6
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:17,959
Speaker 2: going broke basically, so it's been placed under voluntary administration.

7
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:19,440
Speaker 3: It's a company called Mosaic.

8
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:22,880
Speaker 2: It does run quite a number of long established fashion

9
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:27,360
Speaker 2: stores across Australia. We're talking Miller's, Rivers, Katie's and nony

10
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 2: B and it is going to continue to trade in

11
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,360
Speaker 2: the lead up to Christmas, we're being told, but administrators

12
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:35,680
Speaker 2: have been brought in to look into the business.

13
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:37,800
Speaker 3: This could impact about two.

14
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 2: Hundred and fifty jobs at head office in Sydney, but

15
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,960
Speaker 2: also two and a half thousand jobs across the nation.

16
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 2: So dreadful news and the lead up to Christmas for

17
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:49,159
Speaker 2: a lot of people who don't know.

18
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:50,960
Speaker 3: If they'll have a job afterwards.

19
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 2: But the company says well, voluntary administration was unfortunately the

20
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 2: most appropriate way to try to restructure. So they're hanging

21
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 2: on but not sure what the future holds for lots

22
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 2: of people.

23
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,840
Speaker 1: It's hard out there, double whammy of cost of living

24
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:11,039
Speaker 1: and the move to online shopping. Hey, what is happening?

25
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 1: This story fascinates me. This woman is bitten by a snake.

26
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:19,319
Speaker 1: She's missing and the bush for nearly two weeks and

27
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:20,119
Speaker 1: she survives.

28
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 2: It's extraordinary and what a relief for all the people

29
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 2: that were out there searching for her, and for la

30
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 2: Visa Schoburg, a woman who moved to Australia from Sweden

31
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:31,680
Speaker 2: about twenty years ago. Then she moved to the rugged

32
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 2: Snowy Mountains in twenty eighteen.

33
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,199
Speaker 3: She loves to photograph wild horses out there.

34
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:40,280
Speaker 2: So she was lost in the Akosiosco National Park for

35
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 2: that amount of time extraordinary.

36
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 3: But she's been found. She's a forty eight year old

37
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 3: woman who.

38
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 2: Did get bitten by apparently a copperhead snake, which is venomous,

39
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 2: and then four days later she was found.

40
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 3: After that bite, she's also.

41
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 2: Rolled at ankle, she's dehydrated, but she's in hospital now

42
00:01:58,560 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 2: in a stable condition.

43
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:01,559
Speaker 3: One searcher said it was like.

44
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,800
Speaker 2: Looking for, as they put it, a pinhead in a haystack.

45
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 3: But they did find it very very lucky to be live.

46
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 3: That's what I'm.

47
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 1: Saying, yeah, very lucky. Indeed, a great ending to that story, Donna,

48
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: thank you very much for that. Donald Tomorrow Our Australia corresponding. Actually,

49
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 1: there's a story in the US media today about a

50
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 1: guy who went missing for thirty days in the bush

51
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 1: and in a national park in America, and he was

52
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,519
Speaker 1: eating berries and you know, whatever water he could find

53
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: off leaves and stuff. And he said he was about

54
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:34,080
Speaker 1: to give up and like literally within hours or a

55
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 1: day of death, and he decided to do one last

56
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 1: scream screams, and the park rangers happened to be walking

57
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 1: past in a track nearby, run to his rescue, save him.
