Welcome to South Today. So during our coastline, while | :00:14. | :00:17. | |
hands to police cut chance, they are investing in the marine | :00:17. | :00:22. | |
surveillance. �1.2 million will replace this entire fleet. Police | :00:22. | :00:26. | |
say it is essential to keep the coastline around Solent safe. | :00:27. | :00:30. | |
The busy time of year for sheep farmers, but there are worries | :00:30. | :00:34. | |
about the latest disease to threat than their livelihood. Although we | :00:34. | :00:40. | |
have had the January lambs already, there are still a flock of use to | :00:40. | :00:47. | |
lamb in April and we do not know it when it will hit. A preserving in | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
landscape, half a million pounds for South Downs. | :00:49. | :00:53. | |
It is hands-on as master at she becomes a lesson in relaxation in | :00:53. | :01:03. | |
:01:03. | :01:08. | ||
the classroom. After we did it, everyone would be calm and relaxed. | :01:08. | :01:13. | |
It is a big spend at a time of cuts. Hampshire Police are investing more | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
than �1 million in a new fleet for the marine police unit. It comes as | :01:17. | :01:20. | |
Dorset Police are considering whether they will still be able to | :01:20. | :01:25. | |
afford a dedicated Marine unit after the Olympics. So, Hatcher's | :01:25. | :01:28. | |
new fleet could become the main marine police force for this part | :01:28. | :01:32. | |
of the south coast. Our Home Affairs Correspondent has the | :01:32. | :01:37. | |
special report. Like all forces, Hampshire Police have to save money | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
and some areas of their budgets are being cut. They are investing in | :01:42. | :01:47. | |
their marine police unit. �1.2 million to replace this entire | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
fleet and they say it is essential to help keep the coastline around | :01:51. | :01:58. | |
the Solent say. They are the beat bobbies of the sea. Hampshire's | :01:58. | :02:02. | |
police marine unit patrolled the river daily, from counter-terrorism | :02:02. | :02:06. | |
operations to seizing shipments of illegal drugs, the work of the UK | :02:06. | :02:11. | |
Border Agency and Ministry of Defence to protect the Solent's | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
multi-million-pound maritime industry. These current vessels are | :02:15. | :02:18. | |
ageing and now the force has agreed to spend the money needed to get | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
them replaced. It is like your car at home, every now and then you | :02:23. | :02:30. | |
have to replace it. Less reliable, is the best way of putting it. | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
the moment, Hampshire Police have three lodges like the one behind me | :02:34. | :02:39. | |
to patrol around 230 miles of coastline around Solent and the | :02:39. | :02:44. | |
Isle of Wight. They will soon be replaced with one of bigger better | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
launch, a catamaran and two fast moving boats. Unlike these vessels, | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
the new boats will have state-of- the-art sonar, radar and thermal | :02:53. | :02:58. | |
imaging equipment. It increases our capability, both locally and | :02:58. | :03:04. | |
further afield. We will be able to operate in rougher conditions and | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
have a bigger presence and that will be the main thing. The new | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
fleet will be able to cover large areas more quickly, which could | :03:13. | :03:19. | |
prove important in the future. Why?, to the eastern Hampshire, Sussex do | :03:19. | :03:23. | |
not have a dedicated marine use it. Dorset Police are reviewing their | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
is in the light of budget cuts. No decisions have been made, but how | :03:27. | :03:31. | |
should could become the main marine police force that is part of the | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
south coast. You cannot look at policing at this moment in time as | :03:35. | :03:39. | |
they used to be. You have to look forward and that is going to be | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
about collaboration. We do not know what that will bring. We have got | :03:44. | :03:50. | |
the largest military port, the largest oil terminal, we have a | :03:50. | :03:53. | |
huge industry in terms of shipping in Southampton and we have | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
Portsmouth. We are well placed for all the areas and all the elements | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
of marine policing. Hampshire Police hope to have the new fleet | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
up and running ahead of the Olympics and although they will not | :04:05. | :04:10. | |
play a direct role in Olympic security, they will be out and | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
about in force as the traffic heads through the Solent to Weymouth. | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
Hampshire Police will be on hand to help their colleagues in Dorset. | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
The teenage boy is in a critical condition in hospital following an | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
incident at the Bournemouth School. It is believed the 16th year-old | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
received a head injury yesterday afternoon at Porchester School and | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
was taken to Southampton General Hospital. Police are investigating | :04:32. | :04:36. | |
an part of the school remains cordoned off. We will have more on | :04:36. | :04:40. | |
that story on our late news at 10:25pm. | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
Plans to build hundreds of new homes on a greenfield site in | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
Dorset have been rejected by the government after a public inquiry. | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
Campaigners claim that the development near Talbot Heath on | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
the Poole born of border would devastate wildlife. The Talbot | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
Village Trust, which owns the land, says the project would have | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
provided much needed affordable homes and says it is very | :05:02. | :05:09. | |
disappointed by the Secretary of State's decision. Brenda Donalson | :05:09. | :05:15. | |
surprises people, still farming at 85 and still doing it in the middle | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
of Will and Portsmouth. Her landlords wanted to build nearly | :05:19. | :05:22. | |
400 houses here and she is delighted she has a -- they have | :05:22. | :05:28. | |
been told they cannot. I am pleased. This is such a lovely open space | :05:28. | :05:36. | |
and you do need a breathing space. You need a lung in a built-up area. | :05:36. | :05:40. | |
The trust's plan for houses and university buildings was so | :05:40. | :05:45. | |
controversial, because the farmland is right next to Talbot Heath. | :05:45. | :05:50. | |
Campaigners argue that he's integrity was a risk. There are | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
other areas of he's that -- heathland in southern England and | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
if his application had gone ahead, we felt it would set a precedent | :05:57. | :06:02. | |
for other areas of heathland. Talbot Village Trust argued that | :06:02. | :06:09. | |
the Heath would be extended and a cat per offence would protect it. | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
That are not satisfied the Secretary of State. The problem | :06:12. | :06:17. | |
with the scheme has always been the effect of putting residential | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
property next to the Hague. You would have been negative effect in | :06:20. | :06:25. | |
terms of people going on to the heat as well as their Peps and this | :06:25. | :06:29. | |
would impact on the heath.' Borough Council said the decision | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
highlights the challenges it faces meeting the growing demand for | :06:33. | :06:40. | |
homes when opportunities are limited by the borough's limits. | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
The Trust says it is disappointed by the outcome of the inquiry, | :06:43. | :06:46. | |
because it believes it would have benefits for the area and any | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
profit would be ploughed back into the community. They say they are | :06:50. | :06:58. | |
looking at their options with their legal and planning options. | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
Sheep and cattle farmers in the south are waiting anxiously to see | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
whether they are going to be affected by a new virus which is | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
fatal to lambs and calves. The Schmallenberg virus appeared in | :07:07. | :07:11. | |
Germany last year and has spread rapidly into southern England in | :07:11. | :07:15. | |
the last few weeks. On some sheep farms, it has killed a quarter of a | :07:15. | :07:22. | |
newborn lambs. So far, there is no defence. The Duxmore Farm near | :07:22. | :07:27. | |
Newport on the Isle of Wight. Matt Legge has spent six years building | :07:27. | :07:32. | |
up his pedigree flock and now has 100 sheep, including this year's | :07:32. | :07:36. | |
first batch of lambs born last month. He has been lucky. There has | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
been no sign of the Schmallenberg virus here, but last week another | :07:40. | :07:44. | |
farm became the first on the island to be affected, with eight dead | :07:44. | :07:49. | |
lambs. The virus causes deformities and stillbirth and it does. It is | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
spread by midges, blown across the Channel. I'm am worried, because | :07:53. | :07:58. | |
although we have had the January last, there is still a flock of use | :07:58. | :08:00. | |
to lamb in April and there is nothing we can do to defend | :08:00. | :08:05. | |
ourselves against then aged population. It is unknown whether | :08:05. | :08:09. | |
it will hit a particular form at any time. The real fear is that it | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
will get into your flock and you lose lambs and if you lose the | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
Lambs, you have lost part of your livelihood. In Germany and the | :08:16. | :08:21. | |
Netherlands, there have been 200 cases a, so far in England, 83 | :08:21. | :08:24. | |
farms have been affected, most of them sheep, but a handful of cattle | :08:24. | :08:30. | |
farms as well. In the last few days, seven fans have been hit in West | :08:30. | :08:35. | |
sucks that it -- West Sussex. the moment there is no way of | :08:35. | :08:39. | |
telling whether a cow or a sheep or goat has the virus. There is no | :08:39. | :08:44. | |
sign are no tears. Farmers only find out whether animals give birth. | :08:44. | :08:49. | |
Schmallenberg virus isn't an officially notifiable disease and | :08:49. | :08:52. | |
it is. There may be many more cases than have been reported. The | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
National Farmers' Union is now encouraging farmers to report any | :08:55. | :09:00. | |
cases they find. It is too late to do anything to protect the farmers. | :09:00. | :09:03. | |
The damage was done in the summer when the midges were flying and | :09:03. | :09:07. | |
biting and that is when the virus was transferred. At the moment, it | :09:07. | :09:14. | |
is a case of gathering the information, and use it to counter | :09:14. | :09:19. | |
it in years to come. They are one of the joys of spring, but this | :09:20. | :09:26. | |
year there is a shadow hanging over the lambing season. | :09:26. | :09:31. | |
A short while ago I spoke to the Deputy Chief Veterinary surgeon at | :09:31. | :09:35. | |
Defra or and I began by asking him how serious the situation is for | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
farmers in the south. On the farms that have been affected by this | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
disease, it can be quite serious. There have been a number of | :09:44. | :09:52. | |
scenarios, but in general we are finding that four 5% of lambs are | :09:52. | :09:55. | |
being affected on each farm. It is worth remembering that the number | :09:55. | :10:01. | |
of farms affected is still relatively small. We have only had | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
83 in Great Britain and all of those were confined to England. | :10:04. | :10:08. | |
Concern for the farmers because there seems to be very little | :10:08. | :10:13. | |
information and they do not know the impact of this. We have been in | :10:13. | :10:18. | |
the forefront of informing farmers and veterinarians in the field | :10:18. | :10:21. | |
about this disease when the first identified it as a threat in the UK | :10:21. | :10:25. | |
some months ago. We have been publishing information far and wide | :10:25. | :10:28. | |
and working with farmers and veterinarians to make sure they are | :10:28. | :10:33. | |
informed. What about the rest of this getting into the food chain? | :10:33. | :10:38. | |
There will be animals that have been exposed to this disease that | :10:38. | :10:43. | |
will be fit and healthy and provided they completely recover if | :10:43. | :10:46. | |
they have been exposed, there is no reason why they could not enter the | :10:46. | :10:50. | |
food chain. It is important to recognise it is only fit and | :10:50. | :10:56. | |
healthy animals that can be slaughtered for human consumption | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
and that all of the evidence and assessments under the Food | :11:00. | :11:06. | |
Standards Agency indicate that this isn't a threat to human health. | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
Revolution is under way in the way government departments and councils | :11:10. | :11:13. | |
by computer software, thanks to a company in Basingstoke. In just a | :11:13. | :11:17. | |
few weeks, it has developed an online one-stop shop for software, | :11:17. | :11:24. | |
designed to cut red tape and save money. Since the birth of computers, | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
government departments and councils have generally bought tailor-made | :11:27. | :11:32. | |
software packages direct from suppliers. These often involve | :11:32. | :11:36. | |
time-consuming research, expense and long-term contracts. Now, there | :11:36. | :11:39. | |
is a new system and it has something in common with the way | :11:39. | :11:49. | |
:11:49. | :11:54. | ||
that people buy software It makes it much easier to buy | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
services and products related to cloud technology over the internet, | :11:58. | :12:01. | |
in a way that is consistent with the way Citizens and consumers are | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
already working. So if the council wants a software application to | :12:06. | :12:10. | |
help tackle halls in the road, it can simply type in the word | :12:10. | :12:17. | |
potholes. A couple of applications come up. The online store currently | :12:17. | :12:21. | |
features 1,700 services from nearly 300 suppliers, and more will be | :12:21. | :12:26. | |
added. It is hoped the system will encourage the creativity of small | :12:26. | :12:31. | |
software companies and cut IT costs. It is moving from big tailor-made | :12:31. | :12:36. | |
projects that last several years to a more pay as you go, on demand | :12:36. | :12:40. | |
approach to IT, where services are bought on a month-by-month basis. | :12:40. | :12:44. | |
The government hopes the new initiative will help the Civil | :12:44. | :12:50. | |
Service and councils save up to �180 million in IT costs by 2015. | :12:50. | :12:54. | |
So far, the company has worked for free on the system but it is hoped | :12:54. | :12:57. | |
that it will be chosen by the government to enhance and expand | :12:57. | :13:06. | |
the system. Still to come: A moment of utter | :13:06. | :13:16. | |
:13:16. | :13:16. | ||
despair. Find out what made the An antiques dealer from Hampshire | :13:16. | :13:20. | |
accused of selling fake Winston Churchill and Picassos signatures | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
has appeared in court. Allan Formhals has pleaded not guilty to | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
16 counts of fraud related to selling books and memorabilia from | :13:28. | :13:33. | |
a number of authors, including JRR Tolkien and Robert Louis Stevenson. | :13:33. | :13:36. | |
The 65-year-old from Milford on Sea is clearly on bail and the trial | :13:36. | :13:41. | |
date has been set for July. A petition has been presented to | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
the Environment Agency opposing plans to let the supermarket pumps | :13:44. | :13:49. | |
sewage into a stream in West Sussex. ASDA insists any out fall from its | :13:49. | :13:53. | |
proposed superstore in Ferring will be completely safe. But some | :13:53. | :13:57. | |
villagers are not convinced and what the application rejected. | :13:57. | :14:01. | |
Thousands of tons of gravel have been deposited on a Hampshire beach | :14:01. | :14:06. | |
after a local sailing club dredged it up to clear a boat channel. | :14:06. | :14:09. | |
Locals say it has ruined a well- known beauty spot at Hill Head | :14:09. | :14:13. | |
Beach near Fareham. The sailing club had a licence to clear the | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
Channel but beach hut owners, who used the space all year round, are | :14:16. | :14:23. | |
not happy. They used to like their beach. The | :14:23. | :14:27. | |
trouble is that much of it has disappeared under 400,000 tonnes of | :14:27. | :14:32. | |
material from the bottom of the sea. The sailing club had the material | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
removed from the mouth of the harbour, which needs to be done to | :14:35. | :14:40. | |
lead boat in and out. But some are angry about where it has ended up. | :14:40. | :14:43. | |
The cease to be a gently sloping beach with areas of sand but you | :14:43. | :14:49. | |
can see what has happened. steps leading down to the beach | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
have disappeared altogether. It was much worse than this but at the | :14:52. | :14:57. | |
weekend, the yacht club had dozens of members out with shovels, | :14:57. | :15:01. | |
snoozing it off. But that has not been enough to satisfy some of the | :15:01. | :15:05. | |
locals. I was absolutely horrified and devastated. We could not | :15:05. | :15:10. | |
believe that our lovely beach had disappeared. We don't know what is | :15:10. | :15:15. | |
in there. It could be fish hooks, broken glass, bodies. It could even | :15:15. | :15:19. | |
be an unexploded bomb. It is all there and the children will not | :15:19. | :15:24. | |
play on it. It could be a health hazard. Previously, this shingle | :15:24. | :15:28. | |
has been left on the foreshore and has washed away in days. A week and | :15:29. | :15:32. | |
it is gone and all that mud would be where cockles love and | :15:32. | :15:36. | |
everything, instead of where it was sound and lovely shingle and you | :15:36. | :15:41. | |
could stretch out. I would not want to sit on that now! Natural England | :15:41. | :15:44. | |
gave the club permission to deposit the gravel but said the conditions | :15:44. | :15:49. | |
laid down were not met. Their main concern now is for the wildlife. It | :15:49. | :15:53. | |
is an important spot for wading birds. In a statement, the sailing | :15:53. | :15:56. | |
club said the work was closely supervised to make sure the | :15:56. | :16:01. | |
contractor complied with the licence conditions. But it said | :16:01. | :16:07. | |
that unfortunately high tides drove the shingle back. | :16:07. | :16:10. | |
Some breaking news is coming in. Within the last few minutes, we | :16:10. | :16:14. | |
have had it confirmed that a teenage boy has died in hospital | :16:14. | :16:18. | |
following an incident at a Bournemouth School. It is believed | :16:18. | :16:22. | |
to the 16th-year-old received a head injury yesterday at his school. | :16:22. | :16:27. | |
A few moments ago, we received this report. | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
Around 100 floral tributes and cards have been left outside the | :16:30. | :16:33. | |
entrance to this school in Bournemouth. The incident happened | :16:33. | :16:39. | |
at around 2:10pm yesterday, involving a 16-year-old pupil. He | :16:39. | :16:43. | |
was taken to the nearby Royal Bournemouth Hospital and later | :16:43. | :16:48. | |
transferred to Southampton General Hospital. Dorset Police say they | :16:48. | :16:53. | |
were called in at around 7:30pm last night and they say a full | :16:53. | :16:57. | |
investigation into the incident is under way. The school was opened | :16:57. | :17:07. | |
:17:07. | :17:08. | ||
today but a section of the playground has been sealed off. | :17:08. | :17:12. | |
We will have more details with that story in our late news tonight. | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
The South Downs is to get hundreds of thousands of pounds from the | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
government to help protect many of its pathways and wildlife habitats. | :17:21. | :17:24. | |
The government has announced 12 at me at major improvement areas, | :17:24. | :17:33. | |
which will get a share of �7.5 million. -- 12 new nature | :17:33. | :17:38. | |
improvement areas. The South Downs National Park will get more than | :17:38. | :17:42. | |
�500,000 to save endangered chalk downland. | :17:42. | :17:45. | |
Recognised for its outstanding beauty, the South Downs are | :17:45. | :17:49. | |
stretches almost 100 miles from Eastbourne to Winchester. Which in | :17:49. | :17:53. | |
chalk and vital to rare and endangered wildlife, it is one of | :17:53. | :17:57. | |
12 areas that has been awarded just over �500,000 from the government | :17:57. | :18:01. | |
to help preserve wildlife havens, restore habitats and encourage | :18:01. | :18:06. | |
locals to embrace what is on their doorstep. It will allow West, | :18:06. | :18:09. | |
across the whole length of the National Park, from Eastbourne to | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
Winchester, to work with the farming community, to direct | :18:13. | :18:20. | |
funding into areas that we can develop for wildlife, in which the | :18:20. | :18:24. | |
areas and the grass land, so it becomes a much richer habitat. | :18:24. | :18:29. | |
While preserving endangered species like these is a big part of the | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
project, bringing conservation and those who live and work on the land | :18:33. | :18:43. | |

Come on, sheep! The South Downs is a farmed landscape. It is the | :18:47. | :18:53. | |
product of generations of farmers, and it is very important that the | :18:53. | :19:02. | |
National Park works with the farmers to ensure that we continue | :19:02. | :19:06. | |
to preserve this wonderful landscape. Linking the | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
environmental benefits of this bid is crucial. What this bid will hope | :19:10. | :19:14. | |
to do is linked the wildlife benefits with the services we get | :19:14. | :19:18. | |
from the environment, in particular water resources. If you have a high | :19:18. | :19:21. | |
quality environment, the water that percolates through the soil will be | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
high quality and the cost of treatment will be lower. As well as | :19:25. | :19:28. | |
being of a good cultural benefit, there is some hard currency | :19:28. | :19:33. | |
attached. It is early days yet as to exactly how this money will be | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
spent, but safeguarding this precious landscape for generations | :19:37. | :19:47. | |
:19:47. | :19:47. | ||
to come is the priority. Tony has the sport. A few moments | :19:47. | :19:52. | |
ago, we showed you a man in utter despair. That was the Crawley Town | :19:52. | :19:57. | |
manager. The managers were absolutely | :19:57. | :20:03. | |
frustrated last night. Crawley remain outside the play-off places | :20:03. | :20:07. | |
after losing at Shrewsbury. Steve Evans a bus to the side have League | :20:07. | :20:11. | |
games in hand after their cup exploits but they wear prostrated | :20:11. | :20:21. | |
:20:21. | :20:21. | ||
at New Meadow as the home side Crawley hoped not to choke on the | :20:21. | :20:24. | |
chance to go back into the automatic promotion places. When | :20:24. | :20:33. | |
the air cleared, the side were celebrating. The sides starter then | :20:33. | :20:36. | |
I just appoint a part in the table but nothing was between them by the | :20:36. | :20:40. | |
break. Quarry had six players in their own penalty area but could | :20:40. | :20:47. | |
not keep Mark Wright's effort out. This player came off the bench to | :20:47. | :20:50. | |
put Shrewsbury back in front. The home side only had three Everton | :20:51. | :20:58. | |
goal all night and scored only two of them. -- three attempts on goal. | :20:59. | :21:04. | |
This player's header went wide. Steve Evans' expression said it all. | :21:04. | :21:07. | |
Crawley still have games in hand and they stressed today how far | :21:07. | :21:10. | |
their journey from the non-League has already taken them. It is not | :21:10. | :21:20. | |
Farnborough Town have been docked five points and given a �5,000 | :21:20. | :21:24. | |
suspended fine by the Football Conference, due to financial | :21:24. | :21:27. | |
irregularities. They were found guilty of submitting misleading | :21:27. | :21:32. | |
information on a quarterly financial returns. It occurred | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
before the current boss Spencer Day joined the club last year. | :21:35. | :21:38. | |
The Football Association are looking into Eddie Mitchell's | :21:38. | :21:43. | |
comments during Saturday night's 606 programme on the BBC. He swore | :21:43. | :21:47. | |
three times during a heated exchange with the presenter after a | :21:47. | :21:52. | |
visit to the dressing room area by the wife of his Co owner Max Demin. | :21:52. | :21:57. | |
He also apologised yesterday on Sunday Politics. | :21:57. | :22:02. | |
Luke Wright has signed a new contract with Sussex through to the | :22:02. | :22:07. | |
2015 season. He has won six a one- day international caps along the | :22:07. | :22:11. | |
way. Monty Panesar and Matt Prior have been named for the Test squad | :22:11. | :22:16. | |
against Franco. Steve Davies and Kevin Pietersen are also named -- | :22:16. | :22:23. | |
also make the trip. Here are three words you don't | :22:23. | :22:27. | |
necessarily think go together - maths, English and massage. They | :22:27. | :22:37. | |
:22:37. | :22:37. | ||
have something in common, though. You want me to say something now! | :22:37. | :22:42. | |
Shall I carry on, and you just look?! They are all on the syllabus | :22:42. | :22:47. | |
at a school in Worthing. Eight and nine-year-olds at Thomas A Beckett | :22:47. | :22:51. | |
Middle School are being taught him a massage each other in class. The | :22:51. | :22:55. | |
technique began in Sweden and teachers say it improves | :22:55. | :23:00. | |
concentration and helps them make friends. It could be good for you! | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
Hands flap like this on to the person's backed... These pupils are | :23:04. | :23:09. | |
learning a new subject. It is their first ever massage class and it is | :23:09. | :23:13. | |
summer timetable three times a week. When we do the big one, we go right | :23:13. | :23:20. | |
up to the shoulders. Have you had a massage before? No. It was really | :23:20. | :23:26. | |
relaxing. What did your teat shirt tell you? That we were going to | :23:26. | :23:34. | |
have a class about massage. I was excited. Pupils from this class had | :23:34. | :23:37. | |
massaged introduced halfway through the academic year. For these | :23:37. | :23:40. | |
youngsters, it is their first lesson but it has been running in | :23:40. | :23:44. | |
this school for six years. Teachers say massage is having a very | :23:44. | :23:49. | |
positive effects. Sometimes we do it when they come in after break | :23:49. | :23:53. | |
time. We will have a quick ten- minute massage and then their | :23:53. | :23:56. | |
concentration is much better in lessons. They are generally nicer | :23:56. | :24:01. | |
to each other. They feel better about themselves, as well. I was a | :24:01. | :24:06. | |
bit nervous because we had all come from lots of different schools, and | :24:06. | :24:11. | |
it helped me make new friends from other schools. I thought it always | :24:11. | :24:18. | |
boosted by confidence, and made me understand how we were doing stuff. | :24:18. | :24:23. | |
After we did it, everybody was calm and relaxed to lessons. It focused | :24:23. | :24:28. | |
everybody. Parents can stop their children taking part in their | :24:28. | :24:33. | |
sessions, but the school says most are very supportive. It builds | :24:33. | :24:37. | |
trust and respect with each other. Lots of self-respect, but also | :24:37. | :24:42. | |
respect for each other. It is an unusual addition to the school | :24:42. | :24:46. | |
syllabus, but today's session has and these young masseurs a pass on | :24:46. | :24:56. | |
the back. -- earned the young masseurs a pat on the back. | :24:56. | :25:01. | |
We should build that into our programme! It wouldn't make me | :25:01. | :25:10. | |
attentive, it would make me fall Leads to the weather. We asked you | :25:10. | :25:14. | |
for some help yesterday with a description of cloud and a mild | :25:14. | :25:21. | |
macro. Leads describe it differently tonight. Dry and benign. | :25:21. | :25:27. | |
How about that?! They cloud is building up again and it is going | :25:27. | :25:34. | |
to be a cloudy night. Some people have said it will be that way in | :25:34. | :25:39. | |
Aldermaston. If you are stepping out barely, there will be poor | :25:39. | :25:44. | |
visibility. A quiet, peaceful night. Into tomorrow morning, a better | :25:44. | :25:51. | |
chance of seeing some bright outbreaks. The cloud brakes develop | :25:51. | :25:56. | |
further east. By midday, a high of 13 Celsius for some, and certainly | :25:56. | :26:06. | |
a pleasant - almost bright - afternoon. It is going to be | :26:06. | :26:12. | |
clearer overnight, with the six to seven Celsius overnight. On | :26:12. | :26:16. | |
Thursday, it is a little difficult to pinpoint where the cloud brakes | :26:16. | :26:21. | |
will be but there will be some sunny spells and it will be dry. | :26:21. | :26:29. | |
Similar on Friday, also. As we head into March, we are hanging on to | :26:29. | :26:37. | |
the mild theme of. This is why the change begins through Friday night. | :26:37. | :26:41. | |
The first cold front arrives and high pressure is moving away with | :26:41. | :26:44. | |
the isobars back on the map. It will be breezy everywhere on | :26:44. | :26:49. | |
Saturday, particularly towards the east. For the rest of the week, it | :26:49. | :26:56. | |
continues to be mild. There will be some mist and fog through the early | :26:56. | :27:00. | |
hours tomorrow and on Thursday morning but it will stay dry. Here | :27:00. | :27:07. | |
is the summary. It is looking to stay the same through Wednesday, | :27:07. | :27:12. | |
Thursday and Friday. Wind prove that very light and some sunshine | :27:12. | :27:20. | |
but predominantly cloudy. -- winds a very light. | :27:20. | :27:27. |
