North. The headlines tonight: Her eyes were damaged by laser surgery. | :00:08. | :00:16. | |
This woman calls for better checks on clinics. I think it is disgusting | :00:17. | :00:20. | |
that they can offer this on the high street so anyone can walk into their | :00:20. | :00:24. | |
clinics. Campaigners say 40 should be 30. The | :00:24. | :00:31. | |
Government agrees that Lincolnshire is out-of-step on road safety. | :00:31. | :00:38. | |
speed of some the cause is inappropriate. | :00:38. | :00:41. | |
The Blitz stories still emerging - unearthed thanks to war memorial | :00:41. | :00:47. | |
campaigners in Hull. And we're on the hunt for Lincoln's | :00:47. | :00:57. | |

East Yorkshire today. Join me for whose eyesight was permanently | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
damaged by laser eye surgery is calling for a change in the law. | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
Tens of thousands of people have the eye treatment every year, many in | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
high street clinics. But it is not regulated in the same way as other | :01:22. | :01:27. | |
surgical procedures. Here is our health correspondent. | :01:27. | :01:30. | |
Several times a day, Sarah Knapp has to stop what she is doing to put | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
drops in her eyes. Laser eye surgery was supposed to help her | :01:34. | :01:38. | |
shortsightedness. Instead she claims it has left her with many other | :01:38. | :01:48. | |
:01:48. | :01:50. | ||
problems. I would get shooting pains, soreness, unbearable | :01:50. | :01:54. | |
itchiness and I have seen an independent specialist in the last | :01:54. | :01:59. | |
two months and I have learnt that they are a result of nerve damage in | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
the right eye. We asked Optimax, who carried out Sarah's procedure, for | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
an interview. They declined but told us in a statement that... Over the | :02:05. | :02:15. | |
:02:15. | :02:15. | ||
past 22 years, they have performed more than 620,000 laser operations. | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
The vast majority of people are delighted with the results. But they | :02:18. | :02:21. | |
add that with all surgery, there can be complications for which remedial | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
treatment is given. Laser eye surgery is not routinely available | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
on the NHS, and Sarah, like tens of thousands of others, was tempted by | :02:27. | :02:30. | |
a cut-price deal. But campaigners have criticised some companies for | :02:30. | :02:32. | |
their aggressive marketing and for playing down any potential | :02:32. | :02:42. | |
:02:42. | :02:44. | ||
side-effects. I made the biggest mistake of my life when I went to | :02:44. | :02:47. | |
have the surgery but I trusted that the surgeon would be honest, would | :02:47. | :02:54. | |
tell me the risks, and this was not true. The surgeons underplay the | :02:54. | :02:59. | |
risks. The high street clinics are businessmen and it is all about | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
profit. While all laser eye surgeons must be qualified doctors, they are | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
not legally required to have specialist qualifications, nor are | :03:05. | :03:11. | |
they regulated by the Government. think it is disgusting that they can | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
offer this on the high street so anybody can walk into their clinics | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
and be offered surgery on your eyes, which are one of your most | :03:19. | :03:27. | |
precious parts of your body, and that it is not regulated. | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
Campaigners hope their experiences will now encourage the Government to | :03:29. | :03:39. | |
:03:39. | :03:40. | ||
share their vision for better regulation of laser eye surgery. | :03:40. | :03:46. | |
Joining me is Mr Millind Pande, a consultant surgeon who carries out | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
laser eye surgery in East Yorkshire. Good evening. Something | :03:48. | :03:57. | |
is going wrong. I think the key to any surgery is to make sure that you | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
are aware of what you are aware of what you're getting into. It is a | :04:00. | :04:06. | |
bit like flying a plane. If you are a good pilot you can land the plane | :04:06. | :04:12. | |
even when there is trouble, so laser surgery is a very successful | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
procedure but the key is to make sure a proper evaluation is done to | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
work out whether a patient is suitable for it or not. And that is | :04:20. | :04:25. | |
not actually happening, anyone can carry out the surgery? Any doctor | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
can, yes. It is something that needs to be looked into, in terms of | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
reinforcing what the training requirements for surgeons are. | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
there some people giving laser eye surgery, in your opinion, who should | :04:37. | :04:44. | |
not be doing it? In my opinion there are people doing it perhaps not the | :04:44. | :04:49. | |
way it should be done. Patients need to be seen by the surgeon, they need | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
to be able to communicate, questioned the surgeon, trust the | :04:52. | :05:01. | |
surgeon, and I and part of the laser eye surgery committee which has a | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
qualification. Isn't it still too young for us to know at all if it is | :05:05. | :05:10. | |
safe and works? It has been 20 years now since laser eye surgery has been | :05:10. | :05:14. | |
around and I have been doing it for more than 20 years now. It has come | :05:14. | :05:19. | |
a long way. We know a lot more about it. We know which patients to | :05:20. | :05:25. | |
operate on and not operate on. your son or daughter was suitable | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
for the operation, would you let them have it? Telemark absolutely, | :05:28. | :05:35. | |
but only in good hands. We would like to hear from you. If you have | :05:35. | :05:45. | |
:05:45. | :05:52. | ||
had laser eye surgery what are your friendship. A handshake seals a deal | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
to run Lincolnshire County Council. The Transport Minister is backing a | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
group of campaigners in Lincolnshire who want speed limits reducing from | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
40 mph to 30. People living in several villages between Grantham | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
and Sleaford said the council has not listened to them. The minister | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
agrees, saying councillors are out of step with Government road safety | :06:08. | :06:17. | |
:06:18. | :06:19. | ||
policy. Years of campaigning resulting in | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
this, a ministerial visit for residents in West will be. The | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
village sits on the main road between Grantham and Sleaford but | :06:28. | :06:33. | |
the speed limit here is 50 mph, and campaigners say that Lincolnshire | :06:33. | :06:37. | |
County Council have rejected their pleas to drop it. We do not want | :06:37. | :06:43. | |
someone to die before we get a speed reduction. That is not the way to | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
achieve policy. What they tell us is they have to balance commercial | :06:47. | :06:52. | |
activity against road safety. Looking across to my house, we have | :06:52. | :06:57. | |
an oil delivery just arrived. You can imagine what it would be like if | :06:58. | :07:03. | |
another HGV came around that blind bend and hit an oil tanker. But how | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
likely is that? Villagers here and in full back between Grantham and | :07:08. | :07:14. | |
Lincoln say that is not the point. Accident statistics have always been | :07:14. | :07:18. | |
a key factor in determining whether or not speed limit should drop but | :07:18. | :07:24. | |
in the last five years here there have only been one slight injury out | :07:24. | :07:30. | |
of 7000 across the county, not enough the council said to change | :07:30. | :07:35. | |
speed limits. But that was before a change of council and other | :07:35. | :07:42. | |
factors. You can see having stood here for the last ten minutes, the | :07:42. | :07:45. | |
speed at which some people go through this village is | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
inappropriate. There are new guidelines for the council to use | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
and I hope they will. But the council says no change. It still | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
wants to balance out the needs of businesses, tourism, commuters and | :07:57. | :08:05. | |
the emergency services. We do not have a 30 mph limit in every village | :08:05. | :08:15. | |
and it is not a precedent to set. We do not have the money for as large a | :08:15. | :08:19. | |
public transport network as we would like. If the minister wants to write | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
us a cheque we would be really grateful. So as a result, the roads | :08:23. | :08:31. | |
are how we all get about. Residents and their local MPs say it is a | :08:31. | :08:38. | |
fight they are not going to give up Another one you might have a view | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
on. Did you think speed limits should be reduced in villages? If | :08:42. | :08:52. | |
:08:52. | :09:07. | ||
you want to be in touch, send us a Lincolnshire's chief -- Police and | :09:07. | :09:11. | |
Crime Commissioner will set up an investigation to look into the | :09:11. | :09:20. | |
suspension of the chief constable. Last month, a High Court judge ruled | :09:20. | :09:24. | |
that Commissioner Alan Hardwick was wrong to suspend Neil Rhodes. He was | :09:24. | :09:28. | |
then reinstated. Today the police and the panel for the county set up | :09:28. | :09:35. | |
a task and finishing working group to examine the decision. The PCC | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
would be brave to ignore recommendations. The compass I | :09:39. | :09:45. | |
police and crime Commissioner has been asked to review rules for cycle | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
events in the area. Graham Stuart, MP for Beverley and Holderness, | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
contacted Commissioner Matthew Grove after several bike races were called | :09:52. | :09:54. | |
off because police refused to support them without road closures. | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
A police spokesperson said they are working with the council and race | :09:57. | :10:02. | |
organisers on the issue. The bishop of Grantham says he is | :10:02. | :10:04. | |
standing down in September to take on new challenges. The Right | :10:05. | :10:14. | |
:10:15. | :10:21. | ||
Reverend Dr Tim Ellis, who is 59, became bishop in 2006. After a week | :10:21. | :10:24. | |
of deadlock, a deal has finally been done to decide which parties will | :10:24. | :10:27. | |
run Lincolnshire County Council. The Conservatives failed to win an | :10:27. | :10:29. | |
overall majority in last week's elections, and will now share power | :10:29. | :10:31. | |
with the Liberal Democrats and independent councillors. Tim Iredale | :10:32. | :10:35. | |
is our political editor. Remind us of how we got to this position. | :10:35. | :10:37. | |
Thursday voters in Lincolnshire decided that no one party should | :10:37. | :10:42. | |
have overall control of the county council, but after a week of | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
negotiation, tonight we finally have a deal. It was sealed with a | :10:46. | :10:52. | |
handshake today at county offices in Lincolnshire and involves the | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
Conservatives, independent and Lib Dems. The Tories are the largest | :10:56. | :11:02. | |
party. They were three short of an overall majority but they will get | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
those three seats from the Liberal Democrats and at least three from | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
independent councillors, we are told. The council leader, Martin | :11:09. | :11:13. | |
Hill, said the voters of Lincolnshire had given him no choice | :11:13. | :11:18. | |
but to do a deal. We could have run with a minority administration but | :11:18. | :11:23. | |
because we face such difficult challenges we all took the view that | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
we need some stability and continuity, and I could stress that | :11:26. | :11:29. | |
even though we have done an arrangement with some councillors, | :11:29. | :11:35. | |
we will continue to work with all the others as well. What do the | :11:35. | :11:41. | |
other parties get out of the deal? That is always able big question | :11:41. | :11:46. | |
with coalitions. What is in it for us? That is a point we put to the | :11:46. | :11:48. | |
Liberal Democrats and independents today. Why have they decided to | :11:49. | :11:55. | |
share power with the Conservatives? Lincoln itself has a very poor | :11:55. | :12:02. | |
infrastructure road wise. There is gridlock. We have over development | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
of housing and so on. All of those things have been discussed and we | :12:06. | :12:16. | |
:12:16. | :12:16. | ||
look to a positive way of moving forward. I want to seat Lincolnshire | :12:16. | :12:21. | |
run efficiently. I think it will be clear in the next few days exactly | :12:21. | :12:26. | |
where we are going. We will keep everyone informed. So what if you | :12:26. | :12:33. | |
keep? They of course, won 16 seats last week. They are now the official | :12:33. | :12:37. | |
opposition on Lincolnshire County Council. They will hold their first | :12:37. | :12:41. | |
group meeting tonight to elect a leader. They say they will be a | :12:41. | :12:44. | |
vocal and high profile opposition on the county council, which I suspect | :12:44. | :12:48. | |
is their way of saying they are not just going to sit at the back of the | :12:48. | :12:52. | |
council chamber and play quietly. I am sure. | :12:52. | :12:55. | |
More on this as well on the radio tomorrow lunchtime if you join me | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
from midday. STILTOCOME are being encouraged to | :12:59. | :13:09. | |
:13:09. | :13:14. | ||
shows a family emerging from the Blitz. And I am in Lincoln workshops | :13:14. | :13:19. | |
are being encouraged to stay open later. | :13:19. | :13:24. | |
Tonight's photograph. Do not forget if you have a picture you are proud | :13:24. | :13:34. | |
:13:34. | :13:42. | ||
awhile. These e-mail says could you ask | :13:42. | :13:50. | |
Peter after last night's dreadful pronunciation... I have made amends | :13:50. | :13:53. | |
and I even played one of the Electric light Orchestra's records | :13:53. | :14:01. | |
of this lunchtime. The headline for the next 24 hours | :14:01. | :14:04. | |
is unsettled. We will have quite a strong wind that it should turn | :14:04. | :14:09. | |
brighter and after the rain we have got this evening tomorrow looks | :14:09. | :14:14. | |
generally a better day but still the risk of some showers. A broad | :14:14. | :14:20. | |
westerly... We get some shelter in this region so not looking too bad. | :14:20. | :14:24. | |
They developed area of low pressure. Some really good rainfall across | :14:24. | :14:30. | |
parts of east Yorkshire in particular. Lincolnshire just drips | :14:30. | :14:36. | |
and drugs. This feature will push out into the North Sea, followed, | :14:36. | :14:41. | |
perhaps by further showery bursts of rain. The showers will not amount to | :14:41. | :14:45. | |
a great deal. Lowest temperatures down to eight or nine degrees. Very | :14:45. | :14:55. | |
:14:55. | :15:06. | ||
place but through the boarding it should brighten up with Sunny into. | :15:06. | :15:09. | |
A few showers whooshing through South Lincoln but generally | :15:09. | :15:15. | |
speaking, most races are likely to become dry and the coast should | :15:15. | :15:21. | |
season bright or sunny intervals coming through. Just a few days ago | :15:21. | :15:31. | |
:15:31. | :15:31. | ||
we had 23 degrees. Tom temperatures -- top temperatures 14 or 15. 16 | :15:31. | :15:38. | |
further side. The outlook looks unsettled. Saturday a bright start. | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
Sunday perhaps not too bad but into next week it is very unsettled | :15:41. | :15:51. | |
:15:51. | :15:55. | ||
Eastbourne now but we watch every single night. | :15:55. | :16:00. | |
What is going on in Eastbourne? Nothing going on there. I have glad | :16:00. | :16:04. | |
that you said that. There is nothing going on down | :16:04. | :16:07. | |
there. It is full of retired people. See | :16:07. | :16:10. | |
you tomorrow. After almost half the stores taking | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
part in late-night shopping in Lincoln pulled out last year because | :16:13. | :16:17. | |
of a lack of trade, another attempt is being made to boost the city | :16:17. | :16:20. | |
centre economy. Longer opening hours and free parking are being used to | :16:20. | :16:29. | |
encourage shoppers to stay in longer on Thursday evenings. | :16:29. | :16:33. | |
Lincoln, alive with shoppers. But to give them more time to spend, shops | :16:33. | :16:42. | |
here are being encouraged to stay open later. I think it would be nice | :16:42. | :16:48. | |
for the students and that and people who work, yes. I thought it was just | :16:48. | :16:54. | |
around Christmas and Easter but apparently it is every Thursday. | :16:54. | :16:58. | |
is a good idea. It gives people time at the weekend not to go shopping. | :16:58. | :17:01. | |
Marks & Spencer and Boots, two of the big-name stores that continue to | :17:01. | :17:07. | |
open until seven every Thursday. But many other shops here choose not to. | :17:07. | :17:11. | |
You have got to have more people to make it worthwhile and we have to | :17:11. | :17:18. | |
have more shops to encourage more people. So I think we will gradually | :17:18. | :17:21. | |
see this increase. We have all the big shops open and I think now we | :17:21. | :17:25. | |
will see some of the small ones joining in. At this sweet shop, they | :17:25. | :17:31. | |
tried opening later in the past but did not make enough money. We will | :17:31. | :17:38. | |
give it a go for a couple of weeks and if it does not take off... You | :17:38. | :17:46. | |
have to look at the costs. We will see what happens. This clothes shop | :17:46. | :17:53. | |
is also going to open later during the lighter nights. I think it only | :17:53. | :17:56. | |
applied during summertime. On the cold winter night it did not work. | :17:56. | :17:59. | |
It is hoped more of the 250 shops here will follow suit, encouraging | :17:59. | :18:02. | |
more shoppers, who will hopefully spend more in the city centre. | :18:02. | :18:08. | |
Gemma is live in Lincoln tonight. It looks quite quiet tonight. Is it | :18:08. | :18:14. | |
likely that more shops will take part this year? | :18:14. | :18:18. | |
Around a dozen of the larger stores here in the city centre do already | :18:18. | :18:25. | |
open later on a Thursday evening, so the Lincoln business improvement | :18:25. | :18:31. | |
group is hoping that the smaller stores will follow suit. A number of | :18:31. | :18:35. | |
independent stores I spoke to today told me they have tried it in the | :18:35. | :18:38. | |
past but they did not get enough customers, although the shops in one | :18:38. | :18:42. | |
report did say they were willing to give it another go. So hopefully | :18:42. | :18:46. | |
more shops will open, that will bring more shoppers, and there will | :18:46. | :18:54. | |
be a boost for the city centre Thanks for your responses after last | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
night's programme when we heard from migrant workers worried about new | :18:57. | :18:59. | |
immigration measures announced in the Queen's Speech. The Government | :18:59. | :19:02. | |
wants to reduce the number of people coming to Britain. Immigration is | :19:02. | :19:05. | |
widely believed to have contributed to the success of UKIP in last | :19:05. | :19:07. | |
week's local elections, especially in Lincolnshire, where the party | :19:07. | :19:17. | |
:19:17. | :19:50. | ||
8,000 Hull City fans joined the promotion-winning team at the KC | :19:50. | :19:55. | |
Stadium for a party to celebrate the club's rise to the Premier League. | :19:55. | :19:58. | |
The trophy was paraded in front of the fans last night before a | :19:58. | :20:03. | |
fireworks display ended the evening. Amanda White was there. | :20:03. | :20:06. | |
The crowd did feel small compared to the thronging masses we had seen at | :20:06. | :20:10. | |
civic reception in the past, but the party at the KC Stadium did have a | :20:10. | :20:20. | |
:20:20. | :20:22. | ||
certain charm. Brilliant. fireworks were stunning. We could | :20:22. | :20:25. | |
have had the civic reception with all of the people of hope but it is | :20:25. | :20:30. | |
great that the fans are here. -- the people of Hull-macro. It was very | :20:30. | :20:33. | |
much a family affair, as players enjoyed the lap of honour denied to | :20:34. | :20:43. | |
:20:44. | :20:44. | ||
them by a huge pitch invasion after Saturday's game. It is a fantastic | :20:44. | :20:51. | |
day. It is the first time for me. It is a great feeling and absolutely | :20:51. | :20:57. | |
great fans here and players. It is a massive thing to get to the Premier | :20:57. | :21:04. | |
League. Everybody has worked hard all season. We are fully rewarded. | :21:04. | :21:14. | |

The 8000 who were there certainly made their voices heard. -- the | :21:15. | :21:20. | |
fireworks were spectacular but as finales go, the last ten minutes of | :21:20. | :21:26. | |
this Championship season will take some beating. | :21:26. | :21:29. | |
A group trying to raise �250,000 for a permanent memorial to victims of | :21:29. | :21:32. | |
the Hull Blitz have opened their own shop. Hundreds of people visiting | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
every day, some bringing along important World War II artefacts. | :21:35. | :21:37. | |
The bombing in Hull left 152,000 homeless and claimed more than 1000 | :21:38. | :21:40. | |
lives. The memorial sculpture, planned for the city centre, will be | :21:40. | :21:43. | |
dedicated to those who died and those who helped in the rescue | :21:43. | :21:51. | |
efforts. The name of the city has now been | :21:51. | :21:59. | |
released as one of the North East city is under attack. There was | :21:59. | :22:04. | |
Catherine, who was 39 weeks pregnant. They had a son, Frederick, | :22:04. | :22:10. | |
and a younger son as well. All five or six members of the family died. | :22:10. | :22:19. | |
It was during some of the city's worst bombing that an Elliott -- Ann | :22:19. | :22:26. | |
Ulyatt's family lost so many members. Her aunt and uncle who ran | :22:26. | :22:33. | |
a pub were told not to use their own cellars for shelter but to go to a | :22:33. | :22:41. | |
public shelter. Shelter was almost entirely destroyed. This photograph | :22:41. | :22:46. | |
came through in our family records... The family story is just | :22:46. | :22:54. | |
one of those being told in an ever-growing exhibition of people's | :22:54. | :23:02. | |
mementos and photographs. Volunteers here say interest in the shop has | :23:02. | :23:09. | |
been remarkable. There was one Saturday where we had 464 people in. | :23:09. | :23:14. | |
People have donated so much and in its own right it has become a | :23:14. | :23:20. | |
memorial. But the aim is still to raise �250,000 to create this | :23:20. | :23:27. | |
sculpture on the site of the bond or dental building. A memorial exist in | :23:27. | :23:30. | |
northern cemetery where a mass grave was created for more than 300 of | :23:30. | :23:36. | |
those killed, but they feel the wartime community of Hull deserves | :23:36. | :23:40. | |
more recognition. They did everything themselves, nobody came | :23:40. | :23:45. | |
in to help them very much, and if it was not for the people of Hull then, | :23:45. | :23:53. | |
we would not have the people of Hull now. For quite a few years there was | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
a plaque in the pavement, but people walk over it, they do not know it is | :23:57. | :24:02. | |
there, and to have this memorial is fantastic. They have a way to go. | :24:02. | :24:08. | |
They have so far raised between �15,000 and �20,000. Each new | :24:08. | :24:11. | |
donation here, whether money, objects or stories, they say will be | :24:11. | :24:20. | |
used to keep the memories of Hull's war alive. | :24:20. | :24:27. | |
The memorial for the city centre of Hull. We will follow their progress. | :24:27. | :24:30. | |
To some they are an eyesore but to others they have been a familiar | :24:30. | :24:32. | |
sight in the centre of Lincoln for years. | :24:32. | :24:38. | |
Now a flock of distinct to looking Muscovy ducks have gone missing from | :24:38. | :24:42. | |
the Brayford pool. Lincoln's Brayford pool has always been a | :24:42. | :24:45. | |
great attraction for our feathered friends. | :24:45. | :24:50. | |
Just today we were graced with swans. Also ducks and pigeons. But | :24:50. | :24:53. | |
they used to be a certain duck that had become particularly well-known | :24:53. | :25:01. | |
to this area. Not a pretty one, in fact a pretty ugly one, and it was | :25:01. | :25:05. | |
not native to this country and it used to attack the swans, but it was | :25:05. | :25:08. | |
here and they were here in large numbers, and now they have | :25:08. | :25:13. | |
disappeared. This is the duck I'm talking about, the Muscovy duck, | :25:13. | :25:17. | |
also known as the turkey duck, but this couple are at a seal sanctuary | :25:17. | :25:23. | |
in Mablethorpe. These petty killer birds are native to Mexico and South | :25:23. | :25:29. | |
America. The larger one with the red around his face is the mail and the | :25:29. | :25:39. | |
smaller one is the female. They like cold temperatures. These areas, | :25:39. | :25:47. | |
where it is quite cool, is ideal for them. So back in Lincoln, it was | :25:47. | :25:53. | |
time to track them down. I have not seen them for a long while. I have | :25:53. | :26:00. | |
seen them before, but not recently. There was more hope why the boats. | :26:00. | :26:05. | |
They are probably still around, may be hiding, maybe nesting. And he was | :26:05. | :26:13. | |
right, because we saw a miraculous reappearance. There is one there, | :26:14. | :26:18. | |
there is another one over there, they are still here. The problem is | :26:18. | :26:23. | |
solved and they are still part of Lincoln. | :26:23. | :26:27. | |
If you have a story you want us to look at and investigate, drop me an | :26:27. | :26:34. | |
e-mail. Let's get a recap of the national and regional headlines. | :26:34. | :26:38. | |
Coalition plans for childminders to look after more children are in | :26:38. | :26:39. | |
doubt after the Deputy Prime Minister questioned them. | :26:39. | :26:42. | |
A woman whose eyesight was damaged by laser surgery calls for better | :26:42. | :26:44. | |
checks on clinics. Tomorrow's weather. A cloudy and | :26:45. | :26:54. | |
damp start. Brightening up later. A few showers are possible. Top | :26:54. | :27:01. | |
temperature around 16 Celsius. Weighing in Scunthorpe says, I had | :27:01. | :27:05. | |
laser eye surgery two years ago and it is the best money I ever spent. | :27:05. | :27:12. | |
Another viewer says, I had it four years ago. It has been fantastic. | :27:12. | :27:18. | |
Also on the subject of speed limits, speed limits do not need lowering in | :27:18. | :27:23. | |
the majority of cases. It will produce more accidents and cost the | :27:23. | :27:28. | |
economy was having little or no impact. This is from Allen, who has | :27:28. | :27:32. |
