Where’s the Welcome Inn? When do the shops close on Saturdays?

PIKE: ... And whom do you recommend I stay? What’s the Welcome Inn like?
MAN: It’s nice there. It’s central and has all the usual business facilities that you’ll need.
PIKE: Oh, good. So I’ll. get a room there. Now, what’s the best way to get into the city center from the airport? Should I take a taxi?
MAN: Well, you can, but you don’t need to. There’s an excellent train service. I think there’s a train at least once an hour.
PIKE: Mmm... Can you tell me something about the business hours? I mean, what time are the banks open?
MAN: The banks? They open at half past eight and close at four thirty.
PIKE: I see. And are they open on Saturday too?
MAN: I’m afraid not. And I’d hatter warn you, the shops close early on Saturday. During the week they’re open until half past six, but on Saturdays they close at four.
PIKE: At four! Right. Now, what’s the weather like at this time of year?
MAN: Well, it’s usually warm. But last week it was very cold and wet. So don’t forget to take an umbrella with you! By the way, when are you going on this trip?
PIKE: Oh, not until the middle of next month. The fifteenth, I think.
