Python method: don't know what I am doing wrong!

Error message says I haven't created the method hours, which I believe I have. Please may someone help me understand where I have gone wrong. Thank you :)

method.py 
class Store:
    open = 9
    close = 5

def hours(self):
    return "We're open from {} to {}.".format(self.open, self.close)

Hi Robert,

Your code is correct you just have to indent the hours method so that it is inside the class.

class Store:
    open = 9
    close = 5

    def hours(self):
        return "We're open from {} to {}.".format(self.open, self.close)
