00:00It's no surprise that many are heading to their local market or grocer to grab some
00:06essentials before they celebrate with their loved ones for Christmas tomorrow.
00:10Many Canberrans journey to the markets in Fishwick to stock up ahead of the day that
00:14marks the holiday season.
00:16The owner of one of the local fish markets says prawns are consistently a favourite,
00:20but oysters have been particularly popular this year.
00:23Everyone loves buying oysters and prawns, it's quite surprising considering the economy.
00:29It's pretty good.
00:31The atmosphere is both festive and chaotic as many take advantage of the last day of
00:35shopping before most shops are set to close.
00:38And there's no shortage of the festive spirit.
00:40We wish you a yummy cherry, we wish you a yummy mango and yum yum berries.
00:48Just being able to be with the family, usually I think like most people you're sort of frantic
00:52during the year trying to rush between your job and your everyday life.
00:56While many Canberrans are celebrating Christmas Day here, it's notably quieter than usual
01:01as many venture to the south coast or outside of the region.
