:00:00. > :00:10.Good evening. The headlines this from the BBC's News at Six.

:00:11. > :00:19.Good evening. The headlines this Tuesday night: In BBC Channel

:00:20. > :00:24.Islands: This is a budget designed to get economic growth, cut taxes

:00:25. > :00:36.and plan for the longer term and I think it's a good budget for Jersey.

:00:37. > :00:42.And, making virtual into reality ` how Alderney plans to cash in on a

:00:43. > :00:45.global online currency. And, after raising tens of thousands of pounds

:00:46. > :00:54.volunteers from Guernsey head to the Philippines to help victims of

:00:55. > :00:57.Typhoon Haiyan. Politicians in Jersey have spent today debating the

:00:58. > :00:59.island's budget for 2014. The Treasury Minister believes his

:01:00. > :01:03.financial plan will help most taxpayers who've been struggling

:01:04. > :01:06.through the recession. It includes an income tax reduction for most

:01:07. > :01:13.islanders, but rises in duty on tobacco, alcohol and fuel. Christina

:01:14. > :01:18.Ghidoni reports. On the face of it it's a good news Budget from the

:01:19. > :01:22.Treasury Minister, tax cuts for 40,000 households, almost ?300

:01:23. > :01:27.million for new hospital, ?250 million for social housing and ?75

:01:28. > :01:33.million to deal with the island's sewage. While politicians debate the

:01:34. > :01:36.Budget inside, outside here in the Royal Square it's the annual soup

:01:37. > :01:40.kitchen. Despite the warm feeling this soup and the apparently good

:01:41. > :01:44.news Budget might give you, inside the Treasury Minister faces

:01:45. > :01:46.challenges. They include convincing politicians to dip into the

:01:47. > :01:51.emergency rainy day fund for the first time to pay for the new

:01:52. > :01:55.hospital and borrowing money for housing. The Jerseyman and woman is

:01:56. > :01:58.not keen on debt historically but debt is an appropriate thing to fund

:01:59. > :02:02.housing. We have all seen the fact that our social housing fabric

:02:03. > :02:06.perhaps hasn't fared well when competing with other projects such

:02:07. > :02:11.as the hospital. It's just the appropriate thing to do. Meanwhile,

:02:12. > :02:16.moves in the budget to increase duty paid by drivers, drinkers and

:02:17. > :02:19.smokers has been described as an unfair easy hit to raise cash that

:02:20. > :02:24.won't put people off smoking or drinking. People who drink silly

:02:25. > :02:28.dangerously are people who abuse alcohol. They don't care what the

:02:29. > :02:34.price is. They'll borrow it, they'll steal it. Or they will hobbing

:02:35. > :02:38.themselves to pay for it. Some changes to the Budget such as taking

:02:39. > :02:42.goods and services tax off food and heating have already been thrown out

:02:43. > :02:45.today. With many hours of Budget debate to go the Treasury Minister

:02:46. > :02:57.may not be able to fight off all of the challenges.

:02:58. > :03:01.Those plans are subject to change. What has changed and what remains in

:03:02. > :03:08.place. Our political reporter joined me earlier. We have had the debate

:03:09. > :03:14.on the amendment to get 5% taken off food and heating. That didn't get

:03:15. > :03:19.through. It was put forward by a St Helier deputy who wanted to try and

:03:20. > :03:23.change the Budget. He offered it as an either/or option on whether tax

:03:24. > :03:27.breaks or low and middle income earners should be included in the

:03:28. > :03:33.budget. That's one of the main things the Minister wants to push

:03:34. > :03:38.through with this. The deputy was offering this as an alternative so

:03:39. > :03:41.it would help lower income earners by not paying tax on food. That

:03:42. > :03:46.didn't get through. We haven't really got much further with the

:03:47. > :03:48.Budget. There's been technical changes they've been discussing

:03:49. > :03:52.today. Tomorrow we get to the debates about duty increases on

:03:53. > :03:56.alcohol and tobacco and fuel for cars. That's due to come tomorrow as

:03:57. > :04:01.are the debates on whether they should borrow money to pay for

:04:02. > :04:06.social housing over the next decade and use reserves for paying for the

:04:07. > :04:16.new hospital. We will have more on those on Breakfast on BBC RadioIersy

:04:17. > :04:19.from 7.00 am. Representatives from Guernsey and

:04:20. > :04:22.Jersey are in Westminster today to discuss restoring tax`relief on

:04:23. > :04:25.goods exported to the UK. They're meeting MPs and Peers to lobby for

:04:26. > :04:29.the return of Low Value Consignment Relief for local produce. The scheme

:04:30. > :04:33.allowed goods under a certain value to be sent VAT free but was scrapped

:04:34. > :04:35.by the British Government in April 2012.

:04:36. > :04:38.Alderney is hoping to capitalise on a booming virtual currency by

:04:39. > :04:40.becoming the first jurisdiction to mint physical Bitcoins. It's been

:04:41. > :04:43.revealed the island's Finance Committee Chair ` Robert McDowall `

:04:44. > :04:48.has been in talks with the Royal Mint about producing the coins.

:04:49. > :04:51.We'll have an exclusive interview with Mr McDowell in a moment, but

:04:52. > :05:01.first Louise Walter explains how the virtual currency actually works.

:05:02. > :05:07.What is a bit coin? It's a virtual currency existing entirely on the

:05:08. > :05:15.internet. It was created in 2008 in somewhat mysterious circumstances by

:05:16. > :05:18.a man, a name thought to be an alias. The currency is exchanged

:05:19. > :05:22.independently of any Government or bank. You can create a bitcoin by a

:05:23. > :05:28.process called mining. Essentially using a lot of computing power to do

:05:29. > :05:32.some very complex maths. But mining gets harder over time. This means

:05:33. > :05:36.there will be a limit to how many bitcoins are in circulation.

:05:37. > :05:45.21 million is thought to be the maximum. Most people buy a bitcoin.

:05:46. > :05:48.They're then stored. The network is controlled by all bitcoin users

:05:49. > :05:53.around the world. No one can force a change in the

:05:54. > :05:56.bitcoin protocol because the virtual currency can only work correctly if

:05:57. > :06:01.there's a consensus amongst its users. The price of a bitcoin can

:06:02. > :06:11.unpredictably increase or decrease over a short period of time due to

:06:12. > :06:22.its economy, nature and sometimes illiquid markets.

:06:23. > :06:24.So just how will Alderney be able to turn a virtual currency into an

:06:25. > :06:27.economic reality? Robert McDowell has been speaking exclusively to the

:06:28. > :06:34.BBC about the proposals. Emma Chambers reports. The chairman of

:06:35. > :06:41.the finance committee has proposed a plan to mint a commemorative coin

:06:42. > :06:46.based on the srir the virtual currency. The first jurisdiction to

:06:47. > :06:50.do so. I would expect there to be more subscribers to this than the

:06:51. > :06:54.conventional coin, in addition to those who collect coins I would

:06:55. > :06:58.imagine people in the computer business and technology business

:06:59. > :07:02.might buy these for novelty purposes. In order to go ahead this

:07:03. > :07:06.idea has to be approved by all ten states members. One of which says it

:07:07. > :07:14.would damage the island's reputation. We have a shared economy

:07:15. > :07:19.with Guernsey and this sort of thing is very damaging when your economy

:07:20. > :07:24.is dependent upon your worldwide reputation for having a premier

:07:25. > :07:27.finance industry. Today the Royal moint confirmed they were approached

:07:28. > :07:31.with the plans but at this stage it remains nothing more than a concept.

:07:32. > :07:47.It seems there's still some way to go before this virtual idea turns

:07:48. > :07:51.into a reality. Hundreds of Channel Islanders queued

:07:52. > :07:54.up for a liquid lunch today at the annual soup kitchens. Thousands of

:07:55. > :07:57.cups of soup were sold to raise money for local charities in

:07:58. > :08:00.Guernsey and Jersey. Last year the events raised more than ?14,000.

:08:01. > :08:04.And staying with charity work, a team of volunteers from Guernsey are

:08:05. > :08:06.en route to the Philippines to help survivors of Typhoon Haiyan. The

:08:07. > :08:10.local charity Bridge2Philipines has so far raised tens of thousands of

:08:11. > :08:13.pounds to help the country. They left the island this evening, but

:08:14. > :08:19.before they did they spoke to the BBC's Penny Elderfield.

:08:20. > :08:24.So this bag we have a little list in here... Pretty much the first time

:08:25. > :08:28.Sarah says she sat down in weeks and she's still working to get ready for

:08:29. > :08:32.a trip she hopes will make a big difference. With the supplies packed

:08:33. > :08:36.she's heading to the Philippines with a team of volunteers to help

:08:37. > :08:41.those affected by the recent typhoon there. The devastation it caused is

:08:42. > :08:46.clear and it's thought it will take up to five years to rebuild areas

:08:47. > :08:50.like this. I woke up on the Friday morning and realised that it had

:08:51. > :08:54.made landfall and it was devastating. Looked at the pictures

:08:55. > :08:59.and thought I will raise the money for one shelter box. We had raised

:09:00. > :09:03.enough for 33 boxes. Since then dozens more and it wasn't long

:09:04. > :09:07.before she knew they had to do more. A couple of days later the

:09:08. > :09:12.Philippines women gravitated towards my house and the phone rang and some

:09:13. > :09:18.news came that wasn't good and I thought I have to go. And a team of

:09:19. > :09:21.them headed off ready to provide medical care and support wherever

:09:22. > :09:23.they're needed. I have been with Sarah before and she always finds

:09:24. > :09:29.lots to do. Always finds what needs to be done and gets on with it. We

:09:30. > :09:32.will be able to make a difference. These were donated by a little

:09:33. > :09:36.girl... Grateful for the generosity people have shown, now it's up to

:09:37. > :09:43.them to make sure the people that need their help get it.

:09:44. > :09:45.And good luck to them for the long journey. We wish them well. We will

:09:46. > :09:47.let you know how they get cannot get our maths wrong second

:09:48. > :09:51.time around. So I am looking forward to a simpler system. Thank you. The

:09:52. > :09:56.consultation on this ended last week and the government will very quickly

:09:57. > :09:59.chew over the results of this consultation and they will reach a

:10:00. > :10:02.decision before Christmas. There's been a sharp rise in the

:10:03. > :10:06.number of motorcyclists killed on the roads in the Avon and Somerset

:10:07. > :10:09.Police Force area this year. The fatalities have more than doubled,

:10:10. > :10:13.despite falling in other parts of the country. Scott Ellis has been

:10:14. > :10:21.finding out who is most at risk, and why.

:10:22. > :10:30.The worst part of his job is telling families

:10:31. > :11:44.Thursday is a fine day. A bright, dry day. It's breezy but we should

:11:45. > :11:48.see some sunshine. The gloom, though, returns as we move into

:11:49. > :11:52.Friday and Saturday. Have a nice evening.

:11:53. > :11:56.Thank you very much. It's certainly getting colder. Apologies about the

:11:57. > :12:00.few technical issues there. We will be back with the headlines at

:12:01. > :12:11.8.00pm. Bye. fixed speed cameras to be switched

:12:12. > :12:15.back on to improve road safety. Coming up, the community taking

:12:16. > :12:18.direct action to deal with graffiti. Plus the unsung hero who's dedicated

:12:19. > :12:25.more than 50 years to helping youngsters learn judo.

:12:26. > :12:32.And something to ruffle a few feathers, the champion chicken

:12:33. > :12:35.washer. There are calls tonight for the

:12:36. > :12:38.government to demonstrate more commitment to wave energy. Millions

:12:39. > :12:42.of pounds have already been invested in the region to trial various wave

:12:43. > :12:45.energy technologies. More money has been announced today but the

:12:46. > :12:47.industry has been struggling to attract capital investment. Our

:12:48. > :12:56.environment correspondent Adrian Campbell reports.

:12:57. > :13:01.This is the life`saver device which has been undergoing tests in

:13:02. > :13:05.Falmouth. It is a Norwegian prototype which turns wave energy

:13:06. > :13:09.into electricity. The design has relied heavily on research,

:13:10. > :13:15.development and manufacture in the south`west. Today's announcement of

:13:16. > :13:18.around ?800,000 to help with further development has been welcomed by

:13:19. > :13:23.those involved. It has come from small beginnings. We are delighted

:13:24. > :13:27.to see it has managed to get the growth funding to take the next step

:13:28. > :13:30.and grow to where we have full`time staff actually operating now and

:13:31. > :13:37.facilitating developers coming out to the site in a more active way.

:13:38. > :13:41.Developers may soon have some good news to celebrate. The European

:13:42. > :13:45.Union's regional development fund is closed awarding another ?2 million

:13:46. > :13:49.to fledglings schemes in the south`west. These are the devices

:13:50. > :13:54.which it is expected will soon tie up to wave hub of Hale for further

:13:55. > :13:58.testing in tougher waters. But some within the industry say there is

:13:59. > :14:02.uncertainty about this government's commitment to renewables which is

:14:03. > :14:07.unsettling private investors. Any issue, rolling back of green taxes,

:14:08. > :14:12.for example, dense confidence, it is one of those factors that can affect

:14:13. > :14:15.confidence. Has the government made a mistake going down that road

:14:16. > :14:22.recently? I think it didn't have a choice. This test site has proved

:14:23. > :14:26.that there is plenty of potential for energy generation. The problem

:14:27. > :14:35.for the industry is that there isn't enough investment. Now to the

:14:36. > :14:38.subject of graffiti. Some people say it's art, or a form of expression

:14:39. > :14:42.that has been used since the Roman Empire. But many more say it's an

:14:43. > :14:45.eyesore, or, in fact, vandalism. Well, this week in Exeter, community

:14:46. > :14:56.groups are helping clean up their neighbourhood with graffiti removal

:14:57. > :15:01.kits provided by the City Council. Scribbled, scratched or sprayed,

:15:02. > :15:05.graffiti is a big problem too many city councils. In Exeter, they've

:15:06. > :15:08.been handing out special graffiti removal kits to volunteers from

:15:09. > :15:15.community groups like this one in St David's to help clean up the city.

:15:16. > :15:19.Everybody is stretched, so it is an opportunity for the community to

:15:20. > :15:24.step up. I'm actually an admirer of good graffiti, I have to say. I

:15:25. > :15:29.really do recognise it as a nod. What we are looking at mainly is

:15:30. > :15:34.tagging. This is really just an egotistical trip for people to put

:15:35. > :15:37.their tag on. Residents already pay for a cleaning service within their

:15:38. > :15:42.council tax but Exeter City Council say they want to empower communities

:15:43. > :15:48.to be able to deal with the graffiti problem. The council has the

:15:49. > :15:52.graffiti team that go around the city. There's probably more graffiti

:15:53. > :15:56.than what they can deal with. Sometimes, too, if there are people

:15:57. > :16:01.within the community who are willing to come out and help, I think it

:16:02. > :16:05.creates a certain bond within that community and people showing that

:16:06. > :16:10.they take pride in the area where they live. It is a criminal offence

:16:11. > :16:13.to leave graffiti and Exeter are offenders are often made to remove

:16:14. > :16:17.theirs. Graffiti has been a problem over the last few months. We have

:16:18. > :16:21.had some good successes with five people being put through the

:16:22. > :16:24.criminal justice system in relation to the graffiti they've caused in

:16:25. > :16:29.Exeter. What this is about now is getting a blank canvas to assess how

:16:30. > :16:33.bad that problem is and make Exeter a great place to live. The police

:16:34. > :16:35.say they will be watching for any return of graffiti to the cleaned

:16:36. > :16:39.areas. Now, how well prepared are you to

:16:40. > :16:42.deal with whatever weather this winter throws at us while you're out

:16:43. > :16:46.driving? December is officially the beginning of winter so now is the

:16:47. > :16:49.time to consider how you'd cope in snow and ice. The Highways Agency

:16:50. > :16:52.estimates that a quarter of motorists don't do cold weather

:16:53. > :16:59.checks on their vehicles, and don't carry the right equipment. Clare

:17:00. > :17:03.Burton reports. January 2010. Hundreds of drivers

:17:04. > :17:11.are caught out by a snowstorm in Devon. Some were stuck for hours.

:17:12. > :17:15.With nothing to eat or drink and nothing warm to wear. And they are

:17:16. > :17:19.not alone. According to the Highways Agency, a court of us make no winter

:17:20. > :17:24.checks on our cars and they want that to change. We've been planning

:17:25. > :17:28.for a long time for this winter. But what we need people to consider is

:17:29. > :17:33.what they do. So we are ready to power the roads and grit and deal

:17:34. > :17:37.with it, but they need to be considering what they are doing, so

:17:38. > :17:40.planning ahead, making sure the equipment they've gotten their

:17:41. > :17:45.vehicles is appropriate, make sure they've got water, food, warm

:17:46. > :17:49.clothes. And sense, really. As well as checking the forecast and

:17:50. > :17:57.planning your journey, items to carry include...

:17:58. > :18:10.So, are the motorists prepared? No. I'd be stuck. I normally have a warm

:18:11. > :18:14.coat but that is it. With enough warning, the Highways Agency can

:18:15. > :18:18.treat the roads before temperatures fall. And if the white stuff is

:18:19. > :18:21.coming, they want drivers to do the right things.

:18:22. > :18:25.Good advice, and David's here with the weather in a few minutes to see

:18:26. > :18:32.if we'll be needing our flasks and fleeces this week. We probably won't

:18:33. > :18:34.have any snow or ice all winter! But we will be prepared.

:18:35. > :18:38.All this week we're finding out about the people you have nominated

:18:39. > :18:41.as the unsung sporting hero of the south`west. It's a celebration of

:18:42. > :18:45.the people who give up huge amounts of their own time to help others

:18:46. > :18:48.enjoy sport in the region. Tonight we meet Alan Kimber, who has been

:18:49. > :18:56.serving the region's biggest Judo club for more than half a century.

:18:57. > :19:01.John Ayres reports. Judo's not for the faint`hearted.

:19:02. > :19:05.Alan Kimber is the chairman of this club. He joined 56 years ago and at

:19:06. > :19:10.the age of 19 he was already treasurer. In his younger days, he

:19:11. > :19:14.missed out on Olympic selection, but he has spent his time coaching and

:19:15. > :19:18.mentoring thousands of children over the years, so what drives him? Judo

:19:19. > :19:25.is one of those sports that gets in the blood. Once you've done it, you

:19:26. > :19:28.can't really leave it be. I don't think there is a week on by all my

:19:29. > :19:33.life that I haven't been involved with judo. These day, he referees

:19:34. > :19:38.and coaches. He is also chairman of judo in the county. His dedication

:19:39. > :19:43.has served his club in good times and bad. Most sports clubs will have

:19:44. > :19:48.had trouble, lack of numbers etc, two different sports coming in. He's

:19:49. > :19:50.always been there, he's made lots of effort keep the club going. He is

:19:51. > :20:10.the club, really. He has coached competitors. Alan was

:20:11. > :20:16.awarded his belt a couple of years ago. You have to be awarded this

:20:17. > :20:20.belt is due to services you provide for the British judo Association.

:20:21. > :20:23.I've been teaching is so long, parents bring their kids and they

:20:24. > :20:27.say you taught me when I was a little boy. It's very nice to hear

:20:28. > :20:31.that, but it makes me look in the mirror and think, how long have you

:20:32. > :20:36.been doing it? People believe that without Alan, this club would not

:20:37. > :20:42.have kept going for so long. This is his legacy. It is hard to believe he

:20:43. > :20:44.has been involved more than 50 years.

:20:45. > :20:47.More from our unsung heroes series tomorrow and you can find out who

:20:48. > :20:49.the winner is in Spotlight on Friday.

:20:50. > :20:52.Some sports news and Yeovil Town take on promotion`chasing Blackpool

:20:53. > :20:56.tonight at Huish Park. The Glovers recorded one of the best results in

:20:57. > :20:58.the club's history at the weekend beating Watford 3`0 away. But

:20:59. > :21:03.they're still in the Championship relegation zone with just three wins

:21:04. > :21:06.from seventeen matches. `` from 17 matches.

:21:07. > :21:09.And you can hear full commentary on Yeovil Town versus Blackpool on BBC

:21:10. > :21:14.Somerset on 95.5 FM from seven o'clock tonight.

:21:15. > :21:18.Over the next few weeks, many people will be spending a lot of time in

:21:19. > :21:21.the kitchen preparing for Christmas. But in one kitchen in Cornwall,

:21:22. > :21:25.they're busy in a very different way. We've been to meet Clive

:21:26. > :21:27.Stephens who has just won one of the country's top trophies for his work.

:21:28. > :21:35.Spotlight's Eleanor Parkinson explains.

:21:36. > :21:39.Clive Stevens has been breeding and showing poultry for more than 40

:21:40. > :21:43.years and has won many trophies. He's just returned from the National

:21:44. > :21:48.portrait exhibition where he scooped a top award, the supreme champion.

:21:49. > :21:54.So, what is his secret? At this time of year, you'll find him in the

:21:55. > :21:59.kitchen a `` in the kitchen with the washing up liquid, washing his

:22:00. > :22:02.birds. You can get into trouble with mites and that type of thing. This

:22:03. > :22:07.makes sure they are completely clean, right through. You think they

:22:08. > :22:10.are not dirty, but when you see the water one I tip it away, although I

:22:11. > :22:15.keep them pretty clean all the time, it just gives them that little bit

:22:16. > :22:19.of extra. People think I'm washing the dishes and all of that. Then

:22:20. > :22:27.they looked down and they think I'm crazy! She is clucking away, is she

:22:28. > :22:32.happy? Yes, she is quite contented. What does his wife think of him

:22:33. > :22:35.taking over the kitchen? I was a bit flabbergasted the first time when I

:22:36. > :22:43.realised what was happening in the kitchen. But I have got used to it

:22:44. > :22:47.over 30 years. After a rinse, the band to Ms placed on the board to

:22:48. > :22:54.dry off. So your technique is just use the towel? Yes. Have you used

:22:55. > :22:58.her drivers? Yes but it drives them a bit too quick and they tend to be

:22:59. > :23:07.a bit frizzled. So I don't bother with that. I just go like this. I

:23:08. > :23:11.give them a mass of. Actually it will take 24 hours for this tend to

:23:12. > :23:15.dry out completely, so she will be placed in a box next or warm

:23:16. > :23:24.radiator. Clive has another showing this week so he will be busy in the

:23:25. > :23:28.kitchen. That's great, isn't it? That chicken

:23:29. > :23:32.was enjoying it! I think I've seen it all.

:23:33. > :23:39.We will now look back before we look forward.

:23:40. > :23:42.Good evening, we will look back at the weather for the month of

:23:43. > :23:51.November. Not particularly dramatic in terms of statistics. Let's start

:23:52. > :23:59.by having a look at the rainfall amounts. The average is 100

:24:00. > :24:04.millimetres and we are not far off at 91.3. Sunshine, we are down.

:24:05. > :24:10.Generally a lot of cloud around. We should see and hundred hours, but we

:24:11. > :24:14.are down to 77 hours. It was a cloudy month. And temperatures,

:24:15. > :24:19.nothing too outstanding in the daytime temperatures. The night`time

:24:20. > :24:24.average is 6.1 degrees but we are below that. So it has been colder

:24:25. > :24:28.during the night. And the last two weeks we've noticed that a lot.

:24:29. > :24:33.South`west water reservoir levels, this time last year they will almost

:24:34. > :24:37.fall, and at the moment we are shy of 80% full. Not too much to worry

:24:38. > :24:41.about this we have a very dry winter. But look at the details for

:24:42. > :24:47.the forecast. We have a change tomorrow. After two grey and dull

:24:48. > :24:52.days, it brightens up and we should see some sunshine. We have sunshine

:24:53. > :24:57.in the afternoon and by the end of the day, feeling just a little bit

:24:58. > :25:01.colder. The colder air floods in. That is the great stripe of cloud.

:25:02. > :25:05.There is a nice clearance the other side of that well have some well

:25:06. > :25:13.broken cloud. We do have front bringing in cold air syncing across

:25:14. > :25:18.the country. Not quite getting to the Channel Islands but for most of

:25:19. > :25:22.south`west England, the afternoon is much brighter and that will see the

:25:23. > :25:26.sunshine. The time we get to Thursday, it is a breezy day, the

:25:27. > :25:29.winds from the north`west becoming strong through the afternoon and we

:25:30. > :25:32.might see a few showers towards the end of the day but nothing compared

:25:33. > :25:36.to other parts of the country, which could be very windy indeed. There is

:25:37. > :25:43.that cloud structure from early on, not much brightness. Our cameraman

:25:44. > :25:47.Jeff tried to find some sunshine in the sky but he wasn't fortunate

:25:48. > :25:51.enough to find any at all. A grey day. Very calm seas, though, so for

:25:52. > :26:01.our date voters, good fishing weather. `` for our day boaters.

:26:02. > :26:05.There is a breeze developing tomorrow into Thursday, so perhaps

:26:06. > :26:09.these calm scenes won't be mirrored moving towards the end of the week.

:26:10. > :26:13.Overnight tonight, the cloud is stubborn, it doesn't shift, and

:26:14. > :26:18.thick enough for some rain now and then. Nothing to worry about,

:26:19. > :26:23.though. Tomorrow morning, grey and misty with a fair amount of cloud.

:26:24. > :26:28.Overnight temptress, a few degrees above freezing in Somerset, for most

:26:29. > :26:32.of us well above freezing. Tomorrow is a cloudy morning with outbreaks

:26:33. > :26:37.of rain at quickly into the afternoon it will brighten up nicely

:26:38. > :26:42.with the sunshine popping out and temperatures probably up at nine or

:26:43. > :26:46.ten. They are falling through the day as that breeze continues to

:26:47. > :26:49.freshen coming in from the north and drawing in cold air all the time.

:26:50. > :26:54.Slow to clear, that were the front, for the Isles of Scilly. Patchy rain

:26:55. > :27:04.into the afternoon. The times of high water.

:27:05. > :27:10.Surfing has been very disappointing. There is slightly more of a wave

:27:11. > :27:15.tomorrow. Up to three feet and choppy on the north coast. The winds

:27:16. > :27:19.will be mainly from the north, three to four, picking up to force five

:27:20. > :27:23.moving into the evening. Thursday, a breezy day, no doubt. Some sunny

:27:24. > :27:29.spells with the risk of some showers. Then high pressure comes

:27:30. > :27:33.back into the weekend and it all quiet and is down again. Have a good

:27:34. > :27:39.evening. Don't forget, commentary of the

:27:40. > :27:44.Yeovil match on the radio in a few minutes time. And we will be back at

:27:45. > :27:46.6:30pm tomorrow evening. From all of us, goodbye.
