I'm Leah with today's big stories, including some of this:

The loo lady who gives tours of London's toilets.

Becky and Ellie Downie coming up on Newsround.

First to Bosnia, Serbia and Croatia - countries in south-east Europe

that have been devastated by their worst floods in more than 100 years.

There's a massive relief operation going on to help people whose homes

The three countries used to be at war - but because of the floods

it appears some people living there are beginning to work together.

Rain that is usually expected in three months has fallen in just a

few days. Thousands of volunteers are working together to rescue

people whose homes have been flooded. They're building barriers

to keep the water away and trying to get food supplies to those stranded.

The authorities and volunteers are helping get aid to where it's needed

in all three countries. This sort of cooperation would have been

unthinkable 20 years ago, when the same countries were at war. In the

1990s, these were the scenes in the region as war broke out in countries

including Serbia, Croatia and Bosnia. They had all been part of

the same country, Yugoslavia. Fighting eventually led to the

region being split into several smaller countries. Since then,

relations between these countries have been difficult but the flooding

has meant some people have put aside their differences to help each

other. The BBCpos-macro guide is out there. What we're seeing is part of

the former Yugoslavia, some of which were at war with each other in the

1990s, coming were at war with each other in the

together and rescuing people in terrible situations. Just here in

Serbia, there are people from Slovenia, Croatia, Montenegro,

Macedonia, all different parts of what differences there may have had

and making sure people get to safety.

Earlier in the week, we told you about Team GB's success at the

It still doesn't feel real. I'm earlier to catch up with Ricky.

It still doesn't feel real. I'm really happy to be able to say that

all my hard work has paid off. I've been working so hard in the gym. We

can't really believe that we've managed to come back with two

European champions. It is a phenomenal achievement. Are you back

to school next week or what's the deal? I'm going back tomorrow! I

haven't been for about four weeks because the nationals were three

weeks before the championships. It's half term next week, apparently. A

lot of catching up to do! What an outstanding effort from the British

gymnast. Some of

your schools will be closed tomorrow so adults can use them to vote

in local and European elections. They're turning

into polling stations for the day. Across the UK people will be

voting for who they want to But what does this mean

and why does it matter? Here's the BBC's politics

reporter Ross Hawkins. We don't only choose people to

represent us at this parliament here in London. We also send 73

politicians to speak for Britain in something called the European

Parliament, which is in between two foreign cities. Its job is to check

out new rules that come out something called the European Union,

a sort club of countries. Some politicians think Britain should

leave that club and the big question is whether one political party that

thinks Britain should leave the club straightaway, called UKIP, will do

as well at the elections tomorrow as lots of people expect.

And if you want to know more then head over to the Newsround

website and check out our special guide to the European elections.

That's also the place to be for loads more from the Downie

sisters talking about their gymnastic success.

Last up, when you visit a new city you might want to check out the

nice restaurant but what about the toilets?

Well, tour guide Rachel Erikson takes visitors round her favourite

loos in London telling them about their history.

That's all from me and the team. We're back at 6:50pm but stick with

CBBC for the rest of the afternoon and I'll see you soon.
