:00:00. > :00:00.And make sure you watch MOTD Kickabout tomorrow. We will be
:00:00. > :00:19.joined by Jenny Jones. Happy Friday guys, I'm Ayshah, here
:00:20. > :00:35.with everything you need to know this morning. Including...
:00:36. > :00:51.The whole nation reaches for their brooms as the UK goes for Gold in
:00:52. > :00:59.the curling. Pets in Russia get in to the Sochi spirit. Only on
:01:00. > :01:10.Newsround. First, within the last hour the
:01:11. > :01:20.Ukraine President's office has said that an agreement has been reached
:01:21. > :01:23.Ukraine President's office has said that an agreement has The rainfall
:01:24. > :01:27.record has already been broken. The UK has received more than 486
:01:28. > :01:32.millimetres of rain between the 1st of December and the 19th of
:01:33. > :01:36.February. The record comes after relentless storms and rainfall over
:01:37. > :01:40.the past two months, which saw severe flooding across many parts of
:01:41. > :01:44.England. When you go to the shops, you probably don't think about the
:01:45. > :01:49.type of money you are using to buy things. But for people in Scotland
:01:50. > :01:51.that may have to change. In September, people will have to vote
:01:52. > :01:56.on whether Scotland should be a separate country to the rest of the
:01:57. > :01:59.UK. There is a big argument over what kind of money people may have
:02:00. > :02:05.to use if the country becomes independent.
:02:06. > :02:10.Whether you live in Wales, Northern Ireland, Scotland or England, you
:02:11. > :02:16.will be using the same money. At the moment, everybody uses the pound. In
:02:17. > :02:21.other countries, they use different money, like the euro or the dollar.
:02:22. > :02:26.On the 18th of September, voters in Scotland will be asked if Scotland
:02:27. > :02:30.should be independent. Those four independents say even if Scotland
:02:31. > :02:35.becomes separate from the rest of the UK, people here will be able to
:02:36. > :02:38.use the pound. But the man in charge of money for the UK Government,
:02:39. > :02:41.George Osborne, says it may not work. That would mean Scottish
:02:42. > :02:47.people would need to use different money. I have come to a school in
:02:48. > :02:55.Scotland to see what the kids thing. We should keep the pound. We may
:02:56. > :03:03.have to keep having two different currencies and it would be annoying.
:03:04. > :03:13.We should keep the pound because we have already learned our currency.
:03:14. > :03:18.We could make our own currency. We can just get on with their lives. If
:03:19. > :03:22.we go shopping in England, it might be annoying for us because we won't
:03:23. > :03:28.have the right currency. When the time comes to decide on an
:03:29. > :03:33.independent Scotland, whether or not it will keep the pound is something
:03:34. > :03:37.voters will be thinking about. The clock is ticking. With only six
:03:38. > :03:43.hours to go until the final we have all been waiting for. Team GB
:03:44. > :03:48.face-off against Canada in the nation's new favourite sport,
:03:49. > :03:52.curling. It starts at 1:30pm. Skipper David Murdoch will be hoping
:03:53. > :03:59.to keep his cool and go for gold. Also in action, Elise Christie in
:04:00. > :04:06.the speed skating. Today we'll also see Britain equalled their best ever
:04:07. > :04:13.medal record haul. With four medals it will be the best since 1924. It
:04:14. > :04:22.was a mixed night for Tottenham and Swansea in the Europa League. Spurs
:04:23. > :04:29.lost to Dnipro. The result means Tottenham have it all to do in the
:04:30. > :04:34.return leg. Swansea City putting a cracking performance during --
:04:35. > :04:41.drawing against Napoli. The swans came close on several occasions.
:04:42. > :04:45.Finally, pet owners in Sochi have been getting into the Winter Olympic
:04:46. > :04:49.spirit by dressing their furry friends in the same outfits worn by
:04:50. > :04:56.the Russian Olympic team and Sochi volunteers. They have all been
:04:57. > :04:59.getting involved. That's all from me. Bye-bye.
