:00:20. > :00:23.Newsline... The Housing Executive says hundreds

:00:23. > :00:27.of its tenants are facing repair delays.

:00:27. > :00:30.A man appears in court charged with trying to kill a police officer on

:00:30. > :00:39.the Twelfth. Why a computer lifeline for pupils

:00:39. > :00:43.who can't attend school through illness could be a step closer.

:00:43. > :00:50.Why they're putting a best foot forward for the Maiden City Festival

:00:50. > :00:55.in Londonderry. We're told change is coming in local

:00:55. > :00:59.football. But not everyone's happy. We're live in north Belfast.

:00:59. > :01:07.And in the weather it's a rainy, wet night tonight. But tomorrow promises

:01:07. > :01:11.to be a much better, brighter day. The Housing Executive says it's been

:01:11. > :01:18.forced to run a reduced repair service in some areas following the

:01:18. > :01:22.collapse of two contractors earlier this year. The housing body says it

:01:22. > :01:25.has not been able to deal with around 1,000 requests for repairs.

:01:25. > :01:28.The housing body has also confirmed it's facing a legal challenge over

:01:28. > :01:35.the procurement of double glazing for thousands of its properties.

:01:35. > :01:38.Martin Cassidy reports. Earlier this year, two contractors

:01:38. > :01:43.responsible for repairs reported by tenants in eight districts went into

:01:43. > :01:46.administration. The Housing Executive says, as a result, it has

:01:46. > :01:54.had to run a reduced repairs service in three districts - Craigavon, the

:01:54. > :01:57.Shankill and South Belfast. It has now emerged there are around 1,000

:01:57. > :02:00.repair requests in these districts which the Executive has not been

:02:00. > :02:02.able to deal with. Because of the mounting backlog, over 200 staff

:02:02. > :02:08.have now transferred from the contractors to the Housing

:02:08. > :02:11.Executive's own staff. Apologising to tenants for the delay, the

:02:11. > :02:14.Housing Executive says it is treating the backlog as a priority

:02:14. > :02:24.and will endeavour to carry out the outstanding work as soon as

:02:24. > :02:38.

:02:38. > :02:44.what the Executive refers to as "planned repairs." This includes the

:02:44. > :02:47.installation of new double glazing. The Housing Minister Nelson

:02:47. > :02:54.McCausland ordered a review in May 2012, claiming the deals that

:02:54. > :02:57.existed then were "unnecessarily expensive." Several companies have

:02:57. > :03:02.criticised the delay in awarding new contracts, claiming it's hit the

:03:02. > :03:09.industry very badly. Today, the Housing Executive confirmed it's

:03:09. > :03:12.facing legal proceedings. The result is an automatic suspension of the

:03:12. > :03:19.procurement process. Tenants hoping for new windows face yet more

:03:19. > :03:23.delays. The Secretary of State has urged the

:03:23. > :03:28.organisers of a republican parade in Castlederg to call it off, but says

:03:28. > :03:31.current legislation means she isn't able to ban it. Earlier, Theresa

:03:31. > :03:40.Villiers met a victims' group opposed to Sunday's parade at

:03:40. > :03:47.Stormont. Unionist politicians say they are disappointed the parade is

:03:47. > :03:51.going ahead. She was very clear that she felt the parade was offensive.

:03:51. > :03:57.She felt that Sinn Fein should cancel their parade in Castlederg

:03:57. > :04:00.and they should take it out of Castlederg. I think the families,

:04:00. > :04:07.whilst they welcome that statement, are still disappointed that there is

:04:07. > :04:13.not a band coming -- there is not a band coming because they do not have

:04:13. > :04:21.any confidence in Sinn Fein meeting the parade out of Castlederg.

:04:21. > :04:24.Fein's Barry McElduff rejected the Secretary of State's comments. He

:04:24. > :04:27.said she should stay out of parading issues and respect the right of

:04:27. > :04:32.republicans to remember their dead in a dignified manner.

:04:32. > :04:37.The Parades Commission has given permission for six loyalists

:04:37. > :04:40.protests tomorrow evening. Numbers have been restricted at four of the

:04:40. > :04:44.demonstrations. A man has appeared in court charged

:04:44. > :04:46.with trying to kill a police officer with a ceremonial sword on the 12th

:04:47. > :04:50.July. Loyalists attacked the police after the Orange Order's parade was

:04:50. > :04:53.prevented from going past the Ardoyne area that evening. Chris

:04:53. > :04:55.Page was in the court for BBC Newsline.

:04:55. > :05:01.These pictures taken from a police helicopter show loyalists attacking

:05:01. > :05:04.PSNI officers on the evening of the Twelfth. Police had blocked the

:05:04. > :05:08.Orange Order's return parade from going past the nationalist Ardoyne

:05:08. > :05:12.area. Today a man appeared in court on the most serious charge brought

:05:12. > :05:16.yet in relation to the rioting. Mark Jason Blaney, who's 30, is accused

:05:16. > :05:20.of attempting to murder a police officer with a sword. He's also

:05:20. > :05:24.charged with having an offensive weapon and riotous behaviour. Mark

:05:24. > :05:28.Blaney is from Alliance Close in North Belfast. He was arrested there

:05:28. > :05:32.earlier this week. He spoke only once during the hearing, to confirm

:05:32. > :05:35.he understood the charges. The court heard that when police put the

:05:35. > :05:40.charges to him, he replied, "I didn't mean to harm anybody.I'm

:05:40. > :05:44.sorry. I apologise." A prosecution lawyer told the court that Mark

:05:44. > :05:47.Blaney had admitted receiving a text message telling him about a meeting

:05:47. > :05:51.at which swords and flags were handed out. But a defence solicitor

:05:51. > :05:56.said this message just referred to a meeting in the Orange lodge, rather

:05:56. > :05:59.than an arrangement to pick up weapons. The district judge said

:05:59. > :06:04.that given the context of the allegations, and the fact there were

:06:04. > :06:13.more contentious parades to come, she was refusing bail. The accused

:06:13. > :06:23.will appear in court again on the fifth September.

:06:23. > :06:26.

:06:26. > :06:32.100 new jobs are being created by the macro bakery, McErlane's. There

:06:32. > :06:36.will be a new factory and machinery. The majority of people will be

:06:36. > :06:39.recruited over the next two years. Families of people killed in the

:06:39. > :06:43.Omagh bombing have long demanded an independent public inquiry into the

:06:43. > :06:46.attack. Today they said they will go to court if necessary to force the

:06:46. > :06:49.British and Irish governments to set one up. The families say there is

:06:49. > :06:53.significant new evidence which could have prevented the attack and

:06:53. > :07:03.brought those responsible to justice. Julian Fowler is in Omagh

:07:03. > :07:05.

:07:05. > :07:09.for us this evening. This is the memorial garden. On

:07:09. > :07:12.Sunday, the 15th anniversary of the atrocity will be remembered. Over

:07:12. > :07:17.the last 15 years there have been reports, inquiries and court cases.

:07:17. > :07:22.But no one has been convicted, and questions remain unanswered. How

:07:22. > :07:26.much did the security services know about the attack, which killed 29

:07:26. > :07:31.people and unborn twins? The families believe if the intelligence

:07:31. > :07:35.had been properly shared it could have been prevented.

:07:35. > :07:44.After 15 years, the families say the truth of what happened in Omagh is

:07:44. > :07:47.long overdue. A report they presented to the British and Irish

:07:47. > :07:50.governments last year they say contains evidence which they feel

:07:50. > :07:53.demands a public inquiry. At a press conference today, Michael Gallagher,

:07:53. > :07:56.whose son Aidan was killed, read extracts from some of the 4,000

:07:57. > :08:00.e-mails sent by an agent, David Rupert. He had infiltrated the Real

:08:00. > :08:08.IRA gang responsible for the bomb. And it's claimed he had scouted

:08:08. > :08:12.possible targets, including Omagh. He had passed information about the

:08:12. > :08:17.attack to his handlers. It sounded like whatever was going to happen

:08:17. > :08:20.would happen soon, maybe in the next few weeks. He was excited about the

:08:20. > :08:26.conversation. This is the same person that says he was involved in

:08:26. > :08:31.the Banbridge bombing, he is excited something will happen in the next

:08:31. > :08:34.couple of weeks. The next couple of weeks just happened to be Omagh.

:08:34. > :08:37.former Police Ombudsman, whose own inquiry criticised the RUC

:08:37. > :08:44.investigation of the atrocity, says the e-mails reveal massive failures

:08:44. > :08:48.by the intelligence and security services. The Americans, the Irish

:08:48. > :08:53.and British government, were all infiltrated, had all infiltrated

:08:53. > :08:57.this group of terrorists, and still this bomb exploded. We need to know

:08:57. > :09:06.why. The families have called on the Secretary of State to given them an

:09:06. > :09:10.answer before next week's anniversary of the atrocity.

:09:10. > :09:17.Some of those e-mails were used in evidence against the real IRA

:09:17. > :09:25.leader, Michael McKevitt. But the families say they contain much more

:09:25. > :09:31.information, including the names of other individuals involved. They say

:09:31. > :09:35.it is up to the government to reveal further details.

:09:35. > :09:39.Police say they are investigating the theft of a Unionist mural from

:09:39. > :09:45.Sandy Row in Belfast last night which ended up on a bonfire.

:09:45. > :09:47.Meetings have been taking place today involving police and community

:09:47. > :09:54.representatives to try and reduce tensions. It is understood the mural

:09:54. > :09:57.has been removed. Still to come...

:09:57. > :10:04.I am Vivian Campbell from Def Leppard. Watch me tonight on BBC

:10:04. > :10:07.Newsline. Three of the four men arrested in

:10:07. > :10:09.connection with the two sudden deaths in Lisnaskea have been

:10:09. > :10:13.released on police bail pending further inquiries. A fourth man,

:10:13. > :10:17.aged 18, is still being questioned on suspicion of the possession and

:10:17. > :10:20.supply of Class A drugs. The police are still awaiting the results of

:10:20. > :10:26.tests to determine exactly how Olivia Reilly and Noel Reilly died

:10:26. > :10:32.and if their deaths were linked. Their bodies were found in different

:10:32. > :10:35.houses within 24 hours of each other.

:10:35. > :10:40.In May this year, we brought you the story of an expensive computer

:10:40. > :10:43.system which could be a lifeline for pupils who cannot attend school. But

:10:43. > :10:45.it was being blocked by some teaching unions. As our education

:10:45. > :10:55.correspondent Maggie Taggart reports, the Minister for Education

:10:55. > :10:56.

:10:57. > :10:59.is now fully behind those in favour of the Elluminate programme.

:10:59. > :11:02.there anything else you can use to develop that?

:11:02. > :11:06.This is a virtual A-level revision class broadcast live as pupils study

:11:06. > :11:08.at their home computers. The teacher is miles away in their usual

:11:08. > :11:12.classroom in Fermanagh. Campaigners say the Elluminate system, which is

:11:12. > :11:16.already in place, could be used like this for children with severe autism

:11:16. > :11:24.or illness who cannot attend school. But despite widespread training,

:11:24. > :11:29.only a handful have benefited. tuition is just a few hours and is

:11:29. > :11:36.not enough. The Elluminate programme is a whole day's lessons and gives

:11:36. > :11:39.them the chance to be as if they are at school. It is there but it is not

:11:39. > :11:44.being used. Suzanne spent a year of her A-level studies at home because

:11:44. > :11:49.of ME, at a time when Elluminate was not available. These school helped

:11:49. > :11:53.as far as there could -- as far as they could but what was there was

:11:53. > :11:59.not enough. This system would have made the whole process of trying to

:11:59. > :12:02.obtain my qualifications a lot easier, and it would have impacted

:12:02. > :12:05.on my health positively. Some unions were concerned about teachers and

:12:05. > :12:08.pupils being observed by people outside the school. But now the

:12:08. > :12:16.group has convinced the Minister for Education, who says he is determined

:12:16. > :12:20.to make changes. The issues they were raising had validity. I have

:12:20. > :12:26.listened intently to day at a meeting where I have been very well

:12:26. > :12:32.informed by their experiences of home to school durations. --

:12:33. > :12:35.tuition. Will you put it right?I will use everything in my power to

:12:35. > :12:39.put it right. The campaigners says they're delighted at the positive

:12:39. > :12:42.response from the minister. Vivian Campbell, from the chart

:12:42. > :12:45.topping rock band Def Leppard, is in Belfast tonight. The guitarist,

:12:45. > :12:49.who's originally from the Maze just outside Lisburn, was diagnosed with

:12:49. > :12:59.throat cancer just a few months ago. Our reporter Dan Stanton caught up

:12:59. > :13:02.

:13:02. > :13:06.with him ahead of his gig tonight with his band Last in Line.

:13:06. > :13:09.Vivian Campbell has been with Def Leppard for 21 years. His band have

:13:09. > :13:16.topped the US and UK album charts. Tonight he is playing with Last in

:13:16. > :13:23.Line. I am thrilled. It just worked out this way. We were here to do for

:13:23. > :13:33.Max brief shows in the UK in -- to do four brief shows in the UK and

:13:33. > :13:35.

:13:35. > :13:41.Ireland and it worked out perfectly. What is the line-up? I am here

:13:41. > :13:47.tonight in Belfast. It is the original band. You have had a tough

:13:47. > :13:52.year, can you tell us? I used to have a lot more cancer diagnosis. I

:13:52. > :13:58.have been in chemo for Hodgkin's lymphoma. The chemo is doing what it

:13:58. > :14:02.is supposed to, it is curing cancer. Unfortunately, the

:14:02. > :14:08.side-effects are no hair and no eyebrows! But it is par for the

:14:08. > :14:13.course and I am fine with it. The treatment has not affected me to

:14:13. > :14:18.negatively. I have been able to continue with my work. I have to do

:14:18. > :14:23.chemo every two weeks. I did one on Monday in Los Angeles, got on the

:14:23. > :14:28.plane on Tuesday. I feel a little rough, but by keeping on my focus on

:14:28. > :14:33.working, it is part of my therapy at it helps meet mentally get through

:14:33. > :14:41.it. Not many survivors like yourself could play live on stage. Not many

:14:41. > :14:48.people do chemo and go on tour, true. I have really come to terms

:14:48. > :14:53.with not having hair. One of the things this has taught me is that

:14:53. > :14:58.vanity has gone out the window. It is not about how my hair looks, it

:14:58. > :15:04.is about how my guitar sounds. I am really focused on the music.

:15:04. > :15:10.band fly off to Scotland tomorrow and end their tour in London.

:15:10. > :15:13.Good to have him home. Coming up... We catch up with two of the

:15:13. > :15:23.competitors at the World Police and Fire Games, who we first met last

:15:23. > :15:28.

:15:28. > :15:37.week. I do not want to tell the FBI that we had a lot of! Craic-- a lot

:15:37. > :15:46.of craic! Let's go to Austin O'Callaghan for

:15:46. > :15:48.the sport. Tonight, the Crusaders Strikers

:15:48. > :15:51.women's football team are hosting a Champions League qualifying

:15:51. > :15:55.tournament here with visiting teams for Ukraine and Hungary taking part.

:15:55. > :15:59.They play in the summer and the men's game here could be following

:15:59. > :16:02.suit. The new body which is going to run

:16:02. > :16:05.Irish League football is considering moving to a summer season and

:16:05. > :16:11.playing more matches on a Sunday. It is promising change, but not

:16:11. > :16:14.everyone is happy. This is the long-term future of

:16:14. > :16:21.Irish League football. The short-term future, major surgery.

:16:21. > :16:28.Indeed, Revolution is hurtling down the tracks. I would encourage them

:16:28. > :16:34.to play on a Sunday. It is a step we must take to come into line with

:16:34. > :16:39.other leagues in Europe. Of course matches should be played on a

:16:39. > :16:45.Sunday. I have no problem with that. There are things which are important

:16:45. > :16:50.to people on a Sunday, and maybe sport would come second. I do not

:16:50. > :16:56.want to get into a theological debate. As far as Linfield would be

:16:56. > :17:01.concerned, we want to see the game progress and we want changes to be

:17:01. > :17:06.brought in. I do not think we will be playing on a Sunday. The Northern

:17:06. > :17:08.Ireland Football League will operate as a limited company and oversee all

:17:08. > :17:14.premiership, Championship, reserve league and youth football and has

:17:14. > :17:22.confirmed it will explore the potential of a summer league. There

:17:22. > :17:25.is sure to be followed. Let's talk to Sara Booth, the

:17:25. > :17:33.tournament director of this event in north Belfast. Sara, the men are

:17:33. > :17:38.looking at making some big changes. The women's league has already made

:17:38. > :17:41.them. What is working and what is not? The advantage with playing in

:17:41. > :17:45.the summer is that there is no football in the calendar at this

:17:45. > :17:49.time of year. It shows that there are people that want to watch

:17:49. > :17:54.football and we are filling a niche. That can only be good for the men's

:17:54. > :17:59.game. Does it matter on the day of the week if you want to get as many

:17:59. > :18:03.people in as possible? Hopefully we will go to weekend football, the

:18:03. > :18:09.same as what the men are proposing for the summer. We have seen high

:18:09. > :18:12.calibre football this evening. What signal does that give? It extends

:18:12. > :18:19.the local profile. We have an international team doing really well

:18:19. > :18:22.and it is time for the club teams to step up to the mark. Tonight,

:18:22. > :18:29.Crusaders Strikers are representing the country. Do you think you have

:18:29. > :18:32.got a good job than the men's game? We have a long way to go, but we

:18:32. > :18:36.have been making huge strides. We have got a good relationship with

:18:36. > :18:41.the media and they are catching on that the game is growing. There is

:18:41. > :18:46.hunger to watch it. How are you able to attract a champions league

:18:46. > :18:53.qualifying tournament to Belfast? put in a really good application and

:18:53. > :18:58.we had the backing of the Irish football Association. Crusaders

:18:58. > :19:02.Strikers are playing at half past seven this evening.

:19:02. > :19:06.Bangor Rugby Club are just back from a trip to Italy, and it's one they

:19:06. > :19:10.won't forget in a hurry. The plan was to play a couple of games of

:19:10. > :19:20.rugby over there and have a bit of a holiday. But they ended up playing

:19:20. > :19:25.against Benetton Treviso, one of Ulster's opponents in the Pro12.

:19:25. > :19:28.Sometimes sport throws up surprise results but rarely are teams shocked

:19:28. > :19:35.by their opposition. Buying's part-timers were in for a night they

:19:35. > :19:43.would not forget. We still had thought they might have a few

:19:43. > :19:49.Academy players. We read the newspaper and it showed the starting

:19:49. > :19:59.team. We realise that some of those guys had played for Italy. It was

:19:59. > :20:02.about one hour before kick-off. There was one penalty from about 35

:20:02. > :20:12.yards up from the post. He slotted it over and he told me his legs had

:20:12. > :20:16.

:20:16. > :20:23.been like jelly. We were winning against them, it was incredible.

:20:23. > :20:27.They went on to lose 92-3, but they won the hearts of the locals.

:20:27. > :20:34.best thing was, when the fans realised it was our club song, they

:20:34. > :20:42.started clapping along. It was the most special bit about it. In the

:20:42. > :20:50.end, the Italians did the job, but Bangor hit all the high notes.

:20:50. > :20:54.Maybe they should quit while they are head!

:20:54. > :20:58.The governor of the Apprentice Boys of Derry says he believes there is a

:20:58. > :21:01.greater understanding of Protestant culture from the Catholic community.

:21:01. > :21:11.He was speaking during the Maiden City Festival ahead of the main

:21:11. > :21:11.

:21:11. > :21:16.parade on Saturday. Bluegrass music dominated the

:21:16. > :21:23.opening weekend of the Maiden City Festival. There was a host of

:21:23. > :21:28.performers in and around the city centre. One of the members of this

:21:28. > :21:34.band says traditional attitudes towards the UK City of Culture are

:21:34. > :21:38.changing. If you look at the city on the news, it is never really a good

:21:38. > :21:43.impression you get, particularly in Irish history and the way things

:21:43. > :21:51.have gone. When you come up here, you are maybe apprehensive coming

:21:51. > :21:57.into it, but it is as friendly as anywhere I have been. The Maiden

:21:57. > :22:02.City Festival wants to showcase a Protestant culture of tolerance and

:22:02. > :22:05.openness, while at the same time making it positive contribution to

:22:05. > :22:10.diversity within a majority nationalist city. We are reaching

:22:10. > :22:14.out, in particular talking to the Catholic and nationalist community

:22:14. > :22:18.in the city. It is appreciated on both sides. We appreciate they want

:22:18. > :22:22.to talk to us and there is appreciation on the other side, I am

:22:22. > :22:27.sure, that we are making the effort to reach out. For Canadian visitors

:22:28. > :22:31.like this family it has been a hectic few days. David took part in

:22:31. > :22:38.the World Police and Fire Games and his daughter is an avid dancer, so

:22:38. > :22:48.they combined the two. I go to Niagara, Ottawa, all over the

:22:48. > :22:48.

:22:49. > :22:54.place. What is it like being here? It is fun. A unique musical

:22:54. > :23:00.collaboration takes place this evening, when this group join three

:23:00. > :23:04.marching flute bands, an Irish traditional flautist and an opera

:23:04. > :23:08.singer to perform a symphony. AT flutes will making sweet music in

:23:08. > :23:18.the column 's Cathedral. -- AT flutes. These terrorists were

:23:18. > :23:25.impressed. It is very nice. We did not expect to hear such music.

:23:25. > :23:28.was lovely. It brings light into our hearts. There have been more people

:23:28. > :23:33.killed in there with falling masonry than there has been in the entire

:23:33. > :23:38.city in the siege. The Apprentice Boys of Derry say they have been

:23:38. > :23:42.delighted with the success of the festival, the culmination of which

:23:42. > :23:49.will be the parade this Saturday. They say they are looking forward to

:23:49. > :23:53.a peaceful day's parading. Let's catch up with two of the

:23:53. > :23:59.competitors at the World Police and Fire Games. The retired FBI agents

:23:59. > :24:05.have become quite the celebrities since appearing on the programme.

:24:05. > :24:13.This is the moment retired FBI Agent Miles was about to compete in the

:24:13. > :24:22.open swim. Little does he realise what he is in for... Definitely not

:24:22. > :24:30.for the faint-hearted! Two miles later, that Daniel Craig moment. The

:24:30. > :24:38.tired Agent Miles emerges from Belfast Lough. He was greeted by his

:24:38. > :24:46.very own Bond girl. That was the coldest water I have ever swam and

:24:46. > :24:53.in my entire life. I am glad I did this. I completed it. Not bad for an

:24:53. > :24:57.old guy! This is my fifth Games. I did not think anybody could top

:24:57. > :25:01.Stockholm in 1999. This is by far and away has been the friendliest

:25:01. > :25:07.games and people, the best support, the best organisation, the best

:25:07. > :25:13.opening ceremonies I have ever seen. You guys really have hit a home run.

:25:13. > :25:17.It was also a home run for his partner. She had two gold medals, in

:25:17. > :25:21.the bench press and push pull. The organisers wanted it to be the

:25:21. > :25:26.friendliest games, has that been the case? Absolutely. So many people

:25:26. > :25:30.have been saying they saw us on the TV. We have had such a great time

:25:30. > :25:38.and had a lot of fun. We plan on staying at least another week.

:25:38. > :25:44.you find any craic? We talked about that. I do not want anybody at the

:25:44. > :25:49.FBI headquarters hearing that we had lots of craic! Home and dry for this

:25:49. > :25:59.husband and wife team. I am told there are lots of

:25:59. > :26:08.

:26:08. > :26:12.engagement during the Games as well. lot of rain tonight as this weather

:26:13. > :26:18.front comes through tonight bringing rain to all parts. It is a cloudy

:26:18. > :26:23.night, meaning temperatures are reasonably mild overnight. Plenty of

:26:23. > :26:31.people were up bright and early this morning. There were loads of

:26:31. > :26:35.pictures of the sky at dawn. I cannot promise a similar picture to

:26:35. > :26:39.morrow. There will be plenty of cloud to begin with, but it will

:26:39. > :26:43.brighten up through the day. Friday is not looking too bad, some

:26:43. > :26:49.reasonably clear skies through the day and these are spills of sunshine

:26:49. > :26:54.just about everywhere. -- decent spells of sunshine. There is fresher

:26:54. > :27:00.error behind the band of rain and it will be cooler than we would expect

:27:00. > :27:05.at the time of year. As we go through the evening and overnight,

:27:05. > :27:10.we will get some rain around. It is a cooler night as we go into

:27:10. > :27:20.Saturday morning. A mixed bag if you are camping out at Hillsborough this

:27:20. > :27:24.weekend. They will be playing the game of dodge the showers. There is

:27:24. > :27:27.plenty of brightness on Saturday, but it is mixed in with rain as

:27:27. > :27:32.well. Temperatures not looking too bad. If you are heading to

:27:32. > :27:39.Derry-Londonderry, for the Maiden City Festival on Saturday,

:27:39. > :27:43.reasonably dry to begin with with a shower in the afternoon. That is the

:27:43. > :27:48.picture as we head towards the weekend. Sunshine and showers is

:27:48. > :27:53.very much the story to be told, and that lasts into the start of next
