Welcome to South East Today, I'm Natalie Graham. And I'm Rob Smith. | :00:07. | :00:15. | |
Tonight's top stories: Two years jail for the man who left a woman | :00:15. | :00:19. | |
disabled and brain damaged in a high speed crash. I have lost my life. | :00:19. | :00:28. | |
She has changed my life. I wish he could understand what he has done. | :00:28. | :00:36. | |
If you shut the school, I want compensation — the Sussex dad | :00:36. | :00:39. | |
furious at the potential disruption to his children's education. Also | :00:39. | :00:47. | |
tonight, Kent and Sussex councils say they are ready for the snow. | :00:47. | :00:50. | |
After the Balcombe protests — the fracking focus moves to East Kent as | :00:50. | :00:53. | |
a company seeks explore for gas. | :00:53. | :00:56. | |
Would you not mention it to anyone, my foolish behaviour? | :00:56. | :01:03. | |
And the original Room With a View — the childhood home that inspired EM | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
Forster gets a blue plaque. Good evening. A speeding driver who | :01:05. | :01:17. | |
left a woman with permanent brain injuries has become one of the first | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
in the country to be jailed under a new motoring offence. 25—year—old | :01:21. | :01:24. | |
Jonathan Ellis from Ashford was sent to prison for two years today after | :01:24. | :01:27. | |
admitting causing serious injury by dangerous driving. His victim, | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
59—year—old Patricia Ireland, has been diagnosed with post—traumatic | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
stress disorder and forced to give up work. She told our reporter Ellie | :01:34. | :01:45. | |
Price she feels she's lost her life. I saw head lights coming towards me | :01:45. | :01:51. | |
at such speed, I knew there was nothing I could do. Patricia Ireland | :01:51. | :01:58. | |
was left with frack just to her skull and ankle after the head—on | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
collision last December. She is still on morphine for the pain and | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
the brain damage she suffered meant she could no longer run hope | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
business, a care home she set up more than 20 years ago. I have just | :02:09. | :02:17. | |
lost my life. She has changed my life and I wish she could understand | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
what she has done. And what they do when they get into a car. It is a | :02:21. | :02:31. | |
weapon. Today, 25—year—old Jonathan Ellis was jailed for two years for | :02:31. | :02:36. | |
the crash after the court heard he had been bracing another car when he | :02:36. | :02:42. | |
lost control. We didn't expect it to be that long but it is a cracking | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
result but it is a warning to others drivers. Because this is one of the | :02:47. | :02:55. | |
first cases of causing serious injury by dangerous driving, there | :02:55. | :02:59. | |
are no guidelines. The judge said people alter water —— realise —— | :02:59. | :03:06. | |
ought to realise they are driving something they can kill. This new | :03:06. | :03:16. | |
offence was brought in last year. People who calls serious life | :03:16. | :03:23. | |
changing injuries to individuals were not being caught by any | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
legislation and sometimes it was seen that they were getting off | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
lightly. The judge said nothing could —— change the damage he had | :03:30. | :03:38. | |
caused. Mrs Ellis said he had —— justice had been done. He got an | :03:38. | :03:44. | |
eight year ban and two years in prison. Hopefully, that will make | :03:44. | :03:51. | |
people realise and think. And later in the programme, we'll be | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
looking at the Kent project teaching children about the dangers of | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
driving by letting them get behind the wheel in the school playground. | :03:57. | :04:08. | |
Sussex businessman says he is going to ignore teachers and take his | :04:08. | :04:09. | |
children to to ignore teachers and take his | :04:09. | :04:16. | |
Paul Yates—Smith says parents are fined if they children's school | :04:16. | :04:21. | |
without position —— permission so he expects compensation from Saltdean | :04:21. | :04:23. | |
Primary School if it refuses to let his children in. Teachers in the | :04:23. | :04:30. | |
North and East of England have already gone on strike this month | :04:30. | :04:35. | |
over pay and pensions. Next week, it is thought many schools in the | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
south—east will close because of similar industrial action. Saltdean | :04:37. | :04:42. | |
Primary School is one of them. It is thought parents not to bring their | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
children into school on Thursday. But some parents say that is | :04:47. | :04:52. | |
uncorrectable. the actions of those in the school are causing resentment | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
among people I know because of the inconvenience and additional costs | :04:56. | :04:59. | |
of looking after those children with short notice. I have respect for the | :04:59. | :05:05. | |
children —— teachers right to strike and I agree they need to do that but | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
I am asking for more time so we can plan effectively to plan for what we | :05:09. | :05:16. | |
do as business owners. Paul Yates—Smith said he should be | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
compensated for lost income and childcare costs. His letter was in | :05:19. | :05:27. | |
response to a letter from the teacher's letter saying they had a | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
high number of unauthorised absences from children and that they would be | :05:32. | :05:42. | |
fined 120 times. —— 120 pounds. Nuptial it is a one—way street. I do | :05:42. | :05:47. | |
believe it should be on both parties, if the teachers are | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
going to work on that date because they have a strike, why | :05:50. | :05:52. | |
going to work on that date because we be the one that are financially | :05:52. | :05:58. | |
penalised? we don't agree with the system of fining parents. It can | :05:58. | :06:02. | |
punish families in difficult stockings dances but as I say, the | :06:02. | :06:10. | |
fault is with Michael Gove and the Department for Education. —— it can | :06:10. | :06:15. | |
punish families in difficult circumstances. Head teachers need to | :06:15. | :06:24. | |
make decisions and say that schools cannot be held responsible for | :06:24. | :06:26. | |
children when they are closed because of strike action. Paul | :06:26. | :06:31. | |
Yates—Smith says if the school does not take his children next | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
Thursday, he will be demanding compensation. In a moment, the title | :06:33. | :06:44. | |
of a new exhibition of avant—garde painter Basil Beattie's work in | :06:44. | :06:51. | |
Sussex. The gritters are ready — the South | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
East's highways managers promise they're better prepared than ever | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
for snow and ice over the next few months. Our councils say they've | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
spent millions of pounds repairing road surfaces damaged by frost | :07:02. | :07:05. | |
earlier this year. But even so, some motoring experts say roads in Kent | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
and Sussex continue to be blighted by potholes. In a moment we'll cross | :07:08. | :07:17. | |
to our reporter Peter Whittlesea in Dover. But first, Juliette Parkin's | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
at a gritter depot in Ringmer, near Lewes. Well might hear, I'll duck | :07:20. | :07:30. | |
high, they have got around 3000 tonnes of salt across the county. | :07:30. | :07:35. | |
Would you believe that is enough to feel around 800 million bags of | :07:35. | :07:42. | |
chips. As the cold weather that income of the critters are on | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
stand—by. This is costing £1.5 million but here, they say they are | :07:47. | :07:52. | |
ready for all weathers. Gearing up for the task ahead, who knows what | :07:52. | :07:56. | |
lies in store for these gritter drivers as winter approaches. It can | :07:56. | :08:03. | |
be quite scary. You can see how dangerous and slow it is on the | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
road, there are parked cars, abandoned cars everywhere, you have | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
to keep your wits about you. When snow fell last year, the usual | :08:11. | :08:18. | |
questions were asked —macro where were the critters —— — where were | :08:18. | :08:26. | |
the critters? In terms of freak snow, there was always the chance | :08:26. | :08:32. | |
that mother nature will beat us but we will do our best to make sure we | :08:32. | :08:37. | |
have resources in the right place. There are 12,000 tonnes of salt for | :08:37. | :08:44. | |
use and every time the great argues, it costs £10,000. It is | :08:44. | :08:51. | |
making sure we have the right equipment. The reality is we are | :08:51. | :08:55. | |
having more and more severe weather, more catastrophic events and they | :08:55. | :09:00. | |
have to be prepared for that. Prepare for winter is the message to | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
drivers, too. What is the advice to drivers? Check the forecast and | :09:05. | :09:09. | |
don't journey out in difficult conditions unless you need to. Take | :09:09. | :09:14. | |
warm clothing and a shovel. Over in Kent, they have a making similar | :09:14. | :09:23. | |
preparations. Last day, Dover said they'd used more salt than ever | :09:23. | :09:28. | |
before. This year, they have a fleet of 60 gritter'. They have stop | :09:28. | :09:37. | |
packed 23 thousand tonnes of salt. Will the state of our roads and | :09:37. | :09:41. | |
specifically potholes be the main problem this winter? After stocking | :09:41. | :09:46. | |
up on salt, Kent County Council have declared it is ready for winter. But | :09:46. | :09:52. | |
many motorists seem more concerned about the state of our roads rather | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
than the salt stockpiles. Iraq wrote there are too many potholes. —— the | :09:56. | :10:06. | |
water gets underneath, it freezes and pushes it out. What do you think | :10:06. | :10:10. | |
of the state of the roads? awful. But the County Council said they are | :10:10. | :10:19. | |
fixing potholes. we gave up the idea of a cheap fix several years ago. | :10:19. | :10:24. | |
Nowadays, when we get a pothole, it is cut out, properly filled. So, | :10:24. | :10:29. | |
taxpayers and there, the roads are up to standard? we think so. Do you | :10:29. | :10:40. | |
honestly leave that? yes. The County Council says they are regularly | :10:41. | :10:44. | |
prepared. Overnight, a yellow weather warning for heavy rain has | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
been forecast and in certain parts of Kent, we could have up to 50 | :10:49. | :10:53. | |
millimetres of rain which could cause localised flooding. | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
Peter Whittlesea in Dover and Juliette Parkin in Ringmer, thank | :10:56. | :10:58. | |
you. Detectives investigating the sexual | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
assault of a teenage boy on board a train in Sussex have released an | :11:01. | :11:05. | |
image of a man they want to speak to. The 18—year—old from Bexhill was | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
assaulted on a train travelling between Hastings and St Leonards | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
Warrior Square. The Sussex Police and Crime | :11:11. | :11:14. | |
Commissioner says she's considering increasing the amount the force | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
receives from council tax payers next year. People living in the | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
county pay an average of £138 per year to Sussex Police but Katy | :11:21. | :11:24. | |
Bourne says she may ask for additional funding, with a final | :11:24. | :11:35. | |
decision due in January. A public consultation is underway | :11:35. | :11:38. | |
into plans for exploratory drilling for gas at three sites in East Kent. | :11:38. | :11:44. | |
Coastal Oil and Gas believe there could be methane in coal seams which | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
could be released to provide a cheap and plentiful source of fuel. But | :11:48. | :11:52. | |
some local people fear it could lead to the controversial extraction | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
process known as fracking and convert quiet villages into battle | :11:55. | :11:58. | |
grounds between the police and anti—fracking protesters. | :11:58. | :11:59. | |
environment correspondent Yvette Austin reports. For Benny the | :11:59. | :12:04. | |
farmland in this part of East Kent lies a bit of coal much was | :12:04. | :12:08. | |
throughout the 1900 spot now a company called Crystal oil and gas | :12:08. | :12:15. | |
wants to look for methane and local people are worried. This is clearly | :12:15. | :12:20. | |
one of the three sites that will be affected. Lets not forget that the | :12:20. | :12:25. | |
explorative borehole is there to look for the viability for | :12:25. | :12:29. | |
extraction. This could lead easily to up to 2000 wellheads here if it | :12:29. | :12:36. | |
goes on to the extraction process. It is something local people must | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
understand. Local people, businesses and indeed farmers. A public | :12:40. | :12:46. | |
consultation is underway for each of the three planning applications in | :12:46. | :12:51. | |
the three areas. The company says it wants to test will only for now. | :12:51. | :12:57. | |
What people remember the mining and remember that the mines were closed | :12:57. | :13:02. | |
partly due to the difficulties underground caused by flooding | :13:02. | :13:05. | |
shafts. Ground water contamination, they say, is a real right here if | :13:05. | :13:11. | |
fracking is ever allowed. It is known that they are unstable, they | :13:11. | :13:19. | |
can move by considerable depth, up to 50 metres. That would be | :13:19. | :13:22. | |
sufficient to disrupt the overlying formations and allow gases and | :13:22. | :13:26. | |
fluids to move upwards into deep base of the aquifer. People in Kent | :13:26. | :13:34. | |
watch closely the protests in bulk over the summer and not everyone | :13:34. | :13:38. | |
wants a repeat of these scenes. Some people say fracking would not happen | :13:38. | :13:42. | |
in East Kent anyway and testing isn't a problem. my concern is that | :13:42. | :13:47. | |
the fact that we will end up with protesters turning up on mass, | :13:47. | :13:49. | |
campaigning against fracking which isn't going to happen and causing | :13:49. | :13:54. | |
the sort of contest —— congestion and road blocking that we wouldn't | :13:54. | :14:00. | |
see from the test running going ahead. People have just over a month | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
see from the test running going to make their views known to the | :14:04. | :14:07. | |
local council. Our top story tonight: A speeding | :14:07. | :14:11. | |
driver who left a woman with permanent brain injuries after | :14:11. | :14:14. | |
crashing into her car in Kent has become one of the first in the | :14:14. | :14:18. | |
country to be sentenced under a new motoring offence. Jonathan Ellis, | :14:18. | :14:20. | |
from Ashford, was jailed for two years today, after admitting causing | :14:20. | :14:25. | |
serious injury by dangerous driving. Also in tonight's programme: It was | :14:25. | :14:34. | |
set in Tuscany but a house in Kent inspired a Room With a View and now | :14:34. | :14:39. | |
it has a blue plaque. And first, the blustery northern winds and then it | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
got cold and today, we saw the brain. I will have a full cast —— | :14:42. | :14:46. | |
weather forecast. With growing concerns about the | :14:46. | :14:54. | |
numbers of young drivers involved in high speed road accidents, one | :14:54. | :14:57. | |
school in Kent is taking an unusual approach by allowing teenagers to | :14:57. | :15:01. | |
drive in the playground. It comes as the government looks at dramatically | :15:01. | :15:08. | |
toughening up the driving licence. New proposals would —— require | :15:08. | :15:15. | |
teenagers to have 100 hours of day time driving and 20 hours of my time | :15:15. | :15:20. | |
driving before they could even take their test. And even after passing, | :15:20. | :15:23. | |
they'd only be given a 12—month probationary license and potentially | :15:23. | :15:25. | |
a curfew preventing them from driving between 10pm and 5am. Ian | :15:25. | :15:28. | |
Palmer has been to Swadelands School near Maidstone for tonights special | :15:28. | :15:30. | |
report. It is a lesson they will never | :15:30. | :15:39. | |
forget. The stick Dean and 16—year—olds are getting better | :15:39. | :15:42. | |
first taste of what it is like to drive a car. It squeals of pleasure, | :15:42. | :15:52. | |
there is a serious message. Pro rata drivers between the age of 17 and 24 | :15:52. | :15:57. | |
cause a significant number of road accidents. The driving Academy | :15:57. | :16:01. | |
programme aims to reduce the number of fatalities and injuries caused by | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
Doug people. Usually, you wouldn't think about it. You would then, they | :16:05. | :16:09. | |
are in a car, they know how to drive. I think it is good that I | :16:09. | :16:17. | |
have done this is that of my first driving lesson being in the road. It | :16:17. | :16:23. | |
was scary. Driving can have scary consequences if you don't give it | :16:23. | :16:25. | |
your full attention. It is to give the young people into an | :16:25. | :16:35. | |
insight into driving. Before they get the Russia. When they are 17, | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
they have all this pressure on them to perform rather than to | :16:39. | :16:42. | |
understand. This is giving them the understanding when they are young | :16:42. | :16:47. | |
and hopefully, they will go away and one to study the Highway Code which | :16:47. | :16:51. | |
has the bits in it about young drivers, pedestrians, cyclists. | :16:51. | :16:59. | |
Here, they are all too aware about the dangers on the road. Five years | :16:59. | :17:03. | |
ago, a pupil was killed inside a car. Recently, and pupil was | :17:03. | :17:08. | |
seriously injured. The Department for Transport figures show that | :17:08. | :17:11. | |
young drivers account for a significant number of accidents on | :17:11. | :17:16. | |
the road, despite being just 8% of the driving population. 20 per two | :17:16. | :17:23. | |
—— 22% involved one young driver. There were 350 deaths and more than | :17:23. | :17:29. | |
4000 people were serious injury —— seriously injured. The company | :17:29. | :17:37. | |
running the scheme says it will save lives. | :17:37. | :17:47. | |
A Room With a View, Howard's End and A Passage to India — novels that | :17:47. | :17:53. | |
captured the essence and tensions of Edwardian England at the height of | :17:53. | :17:56. | |
the Empire. And today, as Chrissie Reidy reports, a blue plaque has | :17:56. | :17:59. | |
been unveiled at the author EM Forster's childhood home in | :17:59. | :18:00. | |
Tonbridge. Isn't it extraordinary? I mean, | :18:00. | :18:18. | |
Italians are so kind, so lovable. Room With a View is a 20th—century | :18:18. | :18:22. | |
classic. EM Forster was inspired when he lived at this house in | :18:22. | :18:29. | |
Tunbridge as a child. It was this view that is said to have inspired | :18:29. | :18:32. | |
EM Forster to write the novel brethren with a view. Back then, he | :18:32. | :18:39. | |
could see way out across North Down. —— to write the novel room with the | :18:39. | :18:41. | |
youth. Honourable gentleman Lucy! . The experienced in Tunbridge is | :18:41. | :18:59. | |
definitely part of his formative experiences, the way in which he | :18:59. | :19:03. | |
views the class system in England. It is definitely laying a very | :19:03. | :19:08. | |
important part in his early life. Something he explored in books like | :19:08. | :19:18. | |
Howard's End. do arrest, do arrest. Macro as an adult, he would have | :19:18. | :19:23. | |
reflected back to his schooldays and seen those as the read Richard and | :19:23. | :19:27. | |
he may well have had principles which felt that that sort of glitch | :19:27. | :19:34. | |
was not right. Today, that Room With a View which is now a school marked | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
his contribution to the literary world. I am every proud to announce | :19:37. | :19:47. | |
the plaque is open. Personally, I think it is amazing that I went to | :19:47. | :19:52. | |
school in the house where one of our best novelists lived and worked. | :19:52. | :19:57. | |
Hopefully, it will inspire the children as well. There are another | :19:57. | :20:03. | |
six to be unveiled. It isn't —— it is hoped these loop backs will | :20:03. | :20:07. | |
ensure the camp of Mac heritage is not for bottom. | :20:07. | :20:11. | |
Renowned for his large—scale, avant—garde abstract paintings | :20:11. | :20:13. | |
78—year—old Basil Beattie is showing few signs of slowing down. A new | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
display of his work opens to the public tomorrow at the Jerwood | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
Gallery in Hastings. Sara Smith has been along for a preview with the | :20:20. | :20:22. | |
artist. Ladders which go nowhere but in | :20:22. | :20:35. | |
every direction. It takes a few moments in this space to realise | :20:35. | :20:41. | |
these are a recurring theme on Basil Beattie's huge canvases. He admits | :20:41. | :20:46. | |
they have proved endlessly intriguing for him. the staircases | :20:46. | :20:53. | |
do not touch the top of the canvas. They don't touch either side. I | :20:53. | :20:59. | |
think that that is for me, intriguing, they look as if one can | :20:59. | :21:13. | |
be optimistic for stop ——. . He sews —— she shows no size —— he shows no | :21:13. | :21:22. | |
signs of scaling back his ambition. All these canvases were produced in | :21:22. | :21:26. | |
the last year. They explore shakes, colour and darkness. for me, to look | :21:26. | :21:34. | |
at these gallery and this painting, it is like that waking moment when | :21:34. | :21:39. | |
then, that was a strange dream, what does it mean? We know that dreams | :21:39. | :21:45. | |
mean everything and nothing, they mean what you want them to mean, in | :21:45. | :21:50. | |
a way, and that is what happens here. The paintings feature | :21:50. | :21:56. | |
alongside two accompanying exhibitions, this piece clearly | :21:56. | :22:08. | |
influenced by the famous Dutch painter. The exhibition opens | :22:08. | :22:15. | |
tomorrow. Onto sport, and with news of | :22:15. | :22:18. | |
football, athletics and an exciting weekend of motorsport, let's cross | :22:18. | :22:27. | |
live to Neil Bell in Chatham. It is the easy weekend of international | :22:27. | :22:31. | |
fixtures. International fixtures mean there's | :22:31. | :22:33. | |
no league match for Brighton or Charlton this weekend, while | :22:33. | :22:36. | |
Crawley's game with Bristol City has been postponed. But Gillingham are | :22:36. | :22:40. | |
in action away to Shrewsbury. The Gills are hoping for a third | :22:40. | :22:43. | |
successive win, but will be forced to make at least one change, | :22:43. | :22:46. | |
following an injury to full—back Michael Harriman. | :22:46. | :22:48. | |
Sprinter Adam Gemili says he's excited about training at | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
Loughborough with a new athletics coach. The 20—year—old from Dartford | :22:51. | :22:54. | |
has parted company with Michael Afilaka, who he'd worked with since | :22:54. | :22:57. | |
swapping football for athletics last year. He'll now be trained by | :22:57. | :23:01. | |
British Athletics sprint coach Steve Fudge. | :23:01. | :23:05. | |
Now, anyone out on the roads this afternoon will know it was a bit | :23:05. | :23:10. | |
hairy — but just a few miles from here, a 16—year—old was hitting | :23:10. | :23:13. | |
speeds of a 100 plus. No need for alarm, Will Palmer was quickest in | :23:13. | :23:16. | |
practice for this weekends Ginnetta Championship at Brands Hatch. He is | :23:16. | :23:28. | |
keen, he is quick, and he knows every hump around Brands Hatch. His | :23:28. | :23:35. | |
dad Jonathan and the Kent circuit and this weekend, his son hopes to | :23:35. | :23:41. | |
win there. he would like —— I would like to win at our home circuit. It | :23:41. | :23:47. | |
is pretty special coming here. I have in watching since I was pretty | :23:47. | :23:50. | |
young. I have always thought I would love to one day get on there. To win | :23:50. | :23:56. | |
there would be fantastic. Will Palmer celebrated his first race | :23:56. | :24:01. | |
victory last month and is currently third in the Ginnetta Championship. | :24:01. | :24:02. | |
He gets help from his big third in the Ginnetta Championship. | :24:02. | :24:10. | |
who is a successful driver. he showed an interest that a very early | :24:10. | :24:15. | |
age, at four or five years old, he was driving an adult car. He clearly | :24:15. | :24:23. | |
had a natural talent. William was different, I ran the being in Abu | :24:23. | :24:27. | |
Dhabi and I found out that William was in a karting race, saying he | :24:27. | :24:31. | |
doesn't want to do it any more, he is cold and wet and he was to go | :24:31. | :24:36. | |
home. I said if he gives up now, we won't do any more bracing. He stuck | :24:36. | :24:42. | |
at it and now, he hopes to imitate his brother. There is a bit of | :24:42. | :24:52. | |
Russia but not too much, is there? Who is the best in the family? I am | :24:52. | :25:00. | |
going to say me. Not everything went according to plan but Will Palmer | :25:00. | :25:03. | |
was the quickest man on the surface. —— on the circuit. He is one to | :25:03. | :25:10. | |
watch. Some sad news today, the death of David Clarke, former | :25:10. | :25:19. | |
cricket happy —— Captain. He was 94. We are going to need some what | :25:19. | :25:23. | |
somewhat this weekend, so how about this? To baby dormice have been | :25:23. | :25:29. | |
rescued after being found at a plant pot in a garden centre. The team at | :25:29. | :25:38. | |
Canterbury are hand feeding them. These are former balls to extinction | :25:38. | :25:40. | |
but these to stand a fighting chance. We will have to survive the | :25:40. | :25:50. | |
weather. Very cute, they will be inside. It is not a weekend to be | :25:50. | :25:54. | |
outside, but from Saturday after the name, you might see some brighter | :25:54. | :25:57. | |
weather around but also some very heavy rain. We have had a warning | :25:58. | :26:03. | |
out from The Met office about this very heavy rain. You don't need me | :26:03. | :26:11. | |
to tell you that it has been a wet and windy day. Lots of heavy, | :26:11. | :26:14. | |
persistent and around. Temperatures reaching highs of around 11 or 12 | :26:14. | :26:18. | |
degrees. When you take into account the raw easterly wind, and all the | :26:19. | :26:23. | |
rain, it has been feeling more like it agrees. It is going to be a wet | :26:24. | :26:31. | |
picture. Temperatures only dropping perhaps to 910 degrees but it will | :26:31. | :26:36. | |
build pretty chilly. The wind easing off as we get towards dawn but it | :26:36. | :26:40. | |
will be a wet start to the weekend. The rental is a little bit as we go | :26:41. | :26:45. | |
through the off the moon, and increasingly price will become of | :26:45. | :26:49. | |
the winds easing off, still the chance of one or two hefty downpours | :26:49. | :26:52. | |
that for the most part, it looks like it'll be a dry afternoon, | :26:52. | :26:56. | |
temperatures up to 12 degrees, always feeling cooler with a win is | :26:57. | :27:00. | |
coming in from any silly direction. As we go over into Sunday, some | :27:01. | :27:08. | |
clever skies and mist and fog but it doesn't stray dry for long. Sunday, | :27:09. | :27:17. | |
lots of rain, the winds still to light but not pretty picture. Highs | :27:17. | :27:23. | |
around 12 or 13 degrees. Feeling a lot cooler than that. Saturday | :27:23. | :27:29. | |
afternoon, best for any plans, it clears by Monday but it will head | :27:29. | :27:34. | |
back through the rest of the week. Make the best of it. See you next | :27:34. | :27:42. | |
week as long as we don't get all washed away. Goodbye. Goodbye. | :27:43. | :27:46. |
