being part of their time my gang. A hammer was taken from the | :01:42. | :01:47. | |

court. A local councillor for the earlier condemned those behind the | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
attacks. I was absolutely shocked and | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
dismayed. That was my reaction and the last thing we need is an | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
incident like this. It's striking us back into the past. Incidents like | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
this have the potential for loss of life or serious injuries or hope | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
whoever is involved is brought to justice. | :03:01. | :03:01. | |

With music, acrobats, dancers and even a dinosaur thrown in - | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
the parade had something for everyone. | :04:26. | :04:28. | |
For some, the day was out of this world. | :04:29. | :04:30. | |
For others, it was all about making a fashion statement. | :04:31. | :04:40. | |
A leprechaun. Everybody wears green. Green is my favourite colour. | :04:41. | :04:45. | |
After the procession, there was a concert | :04:46. | :04:48. | |
In Londonderry, there was a parade of imagination and colour | :04:49. | :04:52. | |

I'm from Peru and for me it's really important to be here. It's my first | :04:55. | :05:09. | |
St Patrick's Day in Ireland. They don't care about the weather. It's | :05:10. | :05:10. | |
fun. It's cool. Earlier, the Apprentice Boys | :05:11. | :05:14. | |
of Derry staged what is now a traditional St Patrick's Day | :05:15. | :05:21. | |
parade before a religious service For the most part, the rain stayed | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
off during the carnival, But in Fermanagh, St Patrick | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
couldn't drive the rain away. Over 1,500 people took part | :05:28. | :05:31. | |

You Are" and it was awash with green as the pageant made its way | :05:54. | :05:59. | |
through O'Connell street. Slaughtneil's Gaelic footballers | :06:00. | :06:01. | |
have lost in the All Ireland club The game's turning point | :06:02. | :06:08. | |
was Padraig Cassidy's sending off in the first half after he lashed | :06:09. | :06:15. | |
out at an opponent. The Derry side drew level | :06:16. | :06:18. | |

Day, it's been a very busy And there has been no shortage | :06:25. | :06:31. | |
of drama in the finals played today. Nigel Ringland rounds | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
up all the action. Saint Mary 's microphone for looking | :06:37. | :06:50. | |
to win the Central League Cup. The game enters its final phase but | :06:51. | :06:55. | |
the gap narrowed to three points. At Saint Colman 's, they had a good | :06:56. | :06:59. | |
shot of a penalty. There is the catch. The tackle. That's tight. | :07:00. | :07:05. | |
That was as close as it got and this is what the historic win meant for | :07:06. | :07:13. | |
St Mary 's. History has been made. Saint Billy's have won the 2017 | :07:14. | :07:21. | |
McRory cup. I couldn't be happier. This is the least we deserve. As the | :07:22. | :07:27. | |
Kingsbarns Stadium, two heavyweights of schools rugby -- rugby clash send | :07:28. | :07:34. | |
it was these two who took the initiative to going to a 12-0 lead. | :07:35. | :07:39. | |
Method he had back before half-time with a free-flowing drive from Chris | :07:40. | :07:48. | |
Lama. But prevailed 12 843 schools in a first. That's an incredible | :07:49. | :07:55. | |
feeling as well. Before the game, wouldn't think about it. Without in | :07:56. | :08:01. | |
this cup final, our rivals across the road. Dafydd Gwynn but | :08:02. | :08:05. | |
hopefully, we may be back in Ireland. It's a great achievement. | :08:06. | :08:13. | |

Now here's Geoff Maskell with your weekend weather forecast. | :08:32. | :08:39. | |
The weather for St Patrick's Day has been rather disappointing, wet and | :08:40. | :08:45. | |
windy and overnight, we have a little more rain, plenty of cloud | :08:46. | :08:54. | |
cover means it will be a very nice night tomorrow is wet and windy | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
again. We start of trial but the rain starts to work its way in from | :08:59. | :09:04. | |
the West through the day. Temperatures are reasonably mild, | :09:05. | :09:08. | |
11-12dC but with all the rain and cloud cover it's not going to feel | :09:09. | :09:12. | |
like a nice day. You can see with the winds becoming an increasing | :09:13. | :09:18. | |
feature through the day, the best of the weather across the north-east. | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
Rugby tomorrow, in Edinburgh, should get away without too much on the way | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
of rain. For Ireland, the winds might be a bit more of an issue. | :09:28. | :09:31. | |
Certainly the wind is picking up as we grow overnight Saturday into | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
Sunday, another mild night with all that's cloud cover but more rain. | :09:36. | :09:40. | |
Next week, that's my day will gradually sink away into a replaced | :09:41. | :09:43. | |
with something a bit more cheerier. No sign of that on Sunday. | :09:44. | :09:48. | |
Temperatures in double figures becoming less wet as we go through | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
the day although those temperatures will drop into next week. | :09:53. | :09:55. | |
