**Notes:**

1 If you already have an announcement bar, it will add the timer as a 2nd line and keep your original message.

2 After BF, it transitions to a Christmas countdown.

3 The BF message will only show in October and upto the BF date in November.

4 The Christmas message will only show in December and stop after Dec 25.

5 If you would like a free custom version of this, eg to add other dates and change messaging, contact support.
