:00:17. > :00:26.Good evening, the headlines on BBC Newsline. A mother and her two young

:00:26. > :00:32.children are victims of a racist attack at their home. Crisis, what

:00:32. > :00:38.crisis? The DUP reject Sinn Fein claims that power sharing is in big

:00:38. > :00:44.trouble. Everybody should call their jets and

:00:44. > :00:48.try to get on with the business of resolving problems rather than

:00:48. > :00:54.creating them. Should some of our bus and train services be

:00:54. > :00:58.privatised? One of our best known attractions is facing closure but

:00:58. > :01:08.tonight campaigners are hoping for a last-minute reprieve. And in the

:01:08. > :01:11.weather. A cloudy dull day today. Any chance of it changing? Join me

:01:11. > :01:14.later for the full forecast. A mother has spoken of her

:01:14. > :01:19.children's terror after their house was targeted in a racist attack in

:01:19. > :01:21.South Belfast. A hatchet was thrown through the window of the family's

:01:21. > :01:25.South Belfast. A hatchet was thrown home in the Sandy Row area this

:01:25. > :01:28.morning. The police say they're treating it as a hate crime.

:01:28. > :01:29.Our reporter Louise Cullen has been speaking to mother-of-two Adenike

:01:29. > :01:32.Yisa,. I must warn you, her report speaking to mother-of-two Adenike

:01:32. > :01:42.contains some strong racist language.

:01:42. > :01:46.Broken glass was hanging from the window of the home on Sandy Row this

:01:46. > :01:50.morning. Adenike Yisa fell asleep watching TV when the sound of the

:01:50. > :01:56.hatchet coming through the window I woke up. She did not want to appear

:01:56. > :02:03.on camera. I thought it was a gunshot. I realised a cracking and

:02:03. > :02:08.smashing, the sound of the glass falling off. I realised it was my

:02:08. > :02:14.window being smashed. I quickly got up and I was screaming. Her children

:02:14. > :02:23.were asleep upstairs, Hassan will be five next month, her daughter is two

:02:23. > :02:27.and a half. I was terrified. I put my daughter back to sleep but myself

:02:27. > :02:33.was scared and would not go back to bed. I put on the lights. They have

:02:33. > :02:39.lived here for more than a year but they have had trouble. A racist

:02:39. > :02:44.insult which she describes was spray-painted on the window when

:02:44. > :02:50.they moved in. I saw something written on my window

:02:50. > :03:02.with a black ink saying no Nigg is allowed in South Balfour asked. This

:03:02. > :03:14.Nigg is here to stay. I did not call the police. Four months ago, some

:03:14. > :03:20.group of guys were walking down and I heard a noise on the window.

:03:20. > :03:24.We rushed out of the door and saw ten young guys with a football. They

:03:24. > :03:29.We rushed out of the door and saw kicked the football against the

:03:29. > :03:31.window. She says Belfast has been welcoming more than a decade ago

:03:31. > :03:33.when she arrived. Most people are good and nice and

:03:33. > :03:37.lovely people. If you get the bad ones, you feel like running out. We

:03:37. > :03:41.have more good people and bad people. The hatchet has been removed

:03:41. > :03:48.for frenzy examination and the police are appealing for

:03:48. > :03:54.information. There may be big problems - but

:03:54. > :03:56.there is no crisis. The words of First Minister Peter Robinson

:03:56. > :03:59.tonight amid speculation over the state of the power sharing Executive

:03:59. > :04:02.at Stormont. It follows a warning from Sinn Fein that relations

:04:02. > :04:05.between the two biggest parties are in difficulties. Our political

:04:05. > :04:07.editor Mark Devenport has been following the political

:04:07. > :04:13.roller-coaster. In New York they observed a

:04:13. > :04:18.temporary truce but how relations now between Stormont's top two?

:04:18. > :04:26.When Martin McGuinness stood shoulder to shoulder with Peter

:04:27. > :04:30.Robinson went distance killed PSN I and later British soldiers, he was

:04:30. > :04:37.doing the legally thing, assertive and robust. Why hasn't Peter

:04:37. > :04:42.Robinson stood shoulder to shoulder with Martin McGuinness and done the

:04:42. > :04:44.same? In his assessment, Gerry Adams

:04:44. > :04:52.mentioned the violence over the summer and the DUP decision to pull

:04:52. > :04:55.the plug on the plans Mason Centre. Despite tension, even today the

:04:55. > :04:58.the plug on the plans Mason Centre. first and Deputy First Minister is

:04:58. > :05:00.where carrying on with their day jobs greeting the new US ambassador

:05:00. > :05:08.to London. There was a crisis, it is seen on

:05:08. > :05:13.the streets and months of sectarian violence. We have had the First

:05:13. > :05:18.Minister missing. I have been involved in a number of

:05:18. > :05:23.crises over the years and I have to say the present circumstances do not

:05:23. > :05:29.have that feel about them at all. There are big problems and we have

:05:29. > :05:36.to address the issues and it's important we do. Can we fix it? Yes,

:05:36. > :05:41.they need to come back to the Good Friday Agreement, back to a

:05:41. > :05:49.partnership. Everybody should call their jets and try to get on with

:05:49. > :05:54.the business of resolving problems -- cool their jets. This latest spat

:05:54. > :05:59.is part of the continued dispute over Peter Robinson's decision to

:05:59. > :06:03.put the maze peace Centre on hold. In determining whether this is a

:06:03. > :06:07.crisis, it's important to pay more attention not to the war of words

:06:07. > :06:13.but what ever is the parties take in the coming months.

:06:13. > :06:16.Now to a proposal which could see the privatisation of part of

:06:16. > :06:19.Northern Ireland's public transport network. It's contained in the final

:06:19. > :06:24.draft of a report prepared by a Stormont Committee and seen by the

:06:24. > :06:32.BBC. The report's also critical of how the Government monitors

:06:32. > :06:35.Translink. Last year the company received more than £140 million for

:06:35. > :06:37.things like new trains, buses and free transport for the elderly.

:06:37. > :06:45.Here's our business correspondent Julian O'Neill.

:06:45. > :06:47.The it bus or train, Translink is public transport in Ireland. The BBC

:06:47. > :06:53.The it bus or train, Translink is has seen a report calling for a

:06:53. > :06:58.major shake-up at privatisation of parts of the network. The report has

:06:59. > :07:02.been ripped -- compiled following a report by the development

:07:02. > :07:05.committee. It argues Translink is getting an easy ride from

:07:06. > :07:10.government. The report says scrutiny of Translink is not sufficient given

:07:10. > :07:15.in the multi-million pound subsidies the public transport provider

:07:15. > :07:20.receives. It argues for budgets to be reviewed. Perhaps the most

:07:20. > :07:25.eye-catching proposal of all is that parts of the public transport

:07:25. > :07:29.network should be opened up to private operators. Specifically, the

:07:29. > :07:34.report will name a new project as being ripe for a new player. Belfast

:07:34. > :07:40.rapid transit is a £100 million plan agreed last year by the executive.

:07:40. > :07:48.It would use modern trams or light rail vehicles, initially it would

:07:49. > :07:54.connect East Belfast, West Belfast and the Titanic Quarter to the city

:07:54. > :07:59.centre. The report is making its way to the Minister who is known to be

:07:59. > :08:03.an opponent of privatisation fearing it could mean fare increases and

:08:03. > :08:08.less popular routes falling by the wayside. When the report is

:08:08. > :08:12.published it will be debated on the floor of the assembly chamber but

:08:12. > :08:18.already it seems the battle lines are being drawn.

:08:18. > :08:22.From one high profile organisation to another and there's more upheaval

:08:22. > :08:24.at the top of the Northern Ireland Housing Executive. A search will

:08:24. > :08:28.begin soon for its third chief executive in as many years after the

:08:28. > :08:33.current post holder announced he was taking retirement. And shortly

:08:33. > :08:41.before we came on air Julian O'Neill gave me this update.

:08:41. > :08:46.John McPeak has been at the Housing Executive for 30 years and in the

:08:46. > :08:52.top position. He wants to retire and the board has accepted his. He has

:08:52. > :08:57.the length of service to be in titles to retire but he is retiring

:08:57. > :09:00.at a time when Housing Executive is under intense scrutiny over how the

:09:01. > :09:04.organisation came to overpay a number of repair contractors. Mr

:09:04. > :09:08.organisation came to overpay a McPeak would have faced questioning

:09:08. > :09:13.why politicians on the social development committee and he still

:09:13. > :09:19.will because he is Joubert tomorrow alongside the social development

:09:19. > :09:23.Minister, Nelson McCausland. He will brief politicians, give them an

:09:23. > :09:30.update on the investigations in the Housing Executive and reveal there

:09:30. > :09:35.is an underspend of 35mm is. This is significant and comes because of the

:09:35. > :09:38.investigations many new contracts cannot be awarded and this

:09:38. > :09:48.potentially could be a problem for tenants if not sorted out soon.

:09:48. > :09:51.Still to come on the programme: Combating child sex exploitation -

:09:51. > :09:58.we hear the details of a new inquiry.

:09:58. > :10:01.Campaigners are hoping for a last minute reprieve for the Exploris

:10:01. > :10:03.Centre in Portaferry. The crunch decision is being taken

:10:03. > :10:05.Centre in Portaferry. at a council meeting tonight in

:10:05. > :10:17.Newtownards and our reporter Mark Simpson is there.

:10:17. > :10:21.The meeting is due to begin at 7pm. Already a large group, more than 100

:10:21. > :10:25.campaigners and protesters have gathered. If we take a closer look

:10:26. > :10:31.campaigners and protesters have at the crowd, we can see they come

:10:31. > :10:37.from all aspects of life, trade unionists trying to save the 18 jobs

:10:37. > :10:41.which are explored -- at Exploris Centre. Families, young people and

:10:41. > :10:46.older people trying to save the aquarium. I have spent the day in

:10:46. > :10:48.Portaferry. It seems the end is in sight for

:10:48. > :10:54.Portaferry. Exploris Centre. Arts Council say

:10:54. > :11:02.the aquarium is simply costing too much money. But the campaign to stop

:11:02. > :11:07.its closure is being stepped up. If the aquarium closes it will rip

:11:07. > :11:12.the heart out of the town. Joe runs a local fish and chip shop and is

:11:12. > :11:16.also on the council and is fighting to save the aquarium. It looks like

:11:16. > :11:22.a losing battle. Portaferry without the Exploris Centre would become a

:11:22. > :11:29.ghost town. We are talking about 70, 90,000 people coming to Portaferry

:11:29. > :11:36.and spending money when they come here.

:11:36. > :11:43.That is the only economy we have. We should be enhancing it. But not

:11:43. > :11:54.everyone agrees. The Strangford MLA has been quoted as saying:

:11:54. > :12:04.The council says it costs £600,000 a year to keep it going.

:12:04. > :12:08.Is that a good use of ratepayers money? We asked people in the

:12:08. > :12:14.largest town in the area, Newtownards. There is no need to

:12:14. > :12:20.spend that much money, it should be bringing in to keep itself open. It

:12:20. > :12:21.should be kept. I took my children that and I am taking my

:12:21. > :12:27.grandchildren. I did think they that and I am taking my

:12:27. > :12:31.should close it. I am terrified of fish and sea life but it is

:12:31. > :12:37.preserving the wildlife and keeping things we would not see on an

:12:37. > :12:41.everyday basis. The centre isn't the most popular attraction in Northern

:12:41. > :12:45.Ireland and it isn't easy to get to that campaigners say it is one of

:12:45. > :12:56.the most family friendly. Especially on a rainy day. The bad news is I do

:12:56. > :13:00.not think they can change the mind of the Council and the best they can

:13:00. > :13:03.hope for is making sure that the council delays decision and we will

:13:03. > :13:09.hope for is making sure that the find out very soon. Thank you. Now

:13:09. > :13:12.to the crisis surrounding the sexual exploitation of children. In the

:13:12. > :13:16.current police investigation, one of the biggest of its kind, over 30

:13:16. > :13:21.people have been arrested in connection with the abuse of 22

:13:21. > :13:31.children who went missing while in care. Tonight at the Health Minister

:13:31. > :13:33.has confirmed years launching an independent enquiry which will look

:13:33. > :13:35.has confirmed years launching an into the scale of the problem and

:13:35. > :13:38.recommend measures. When I spoke to Edwin Poots, I asked whether the

:13:38. > :13:40.public could be confident that any recommendations would be

:13:40. > :13:44.implemented. The nature of the problem has been around for years

:13:44. > :13:49.and that was recognised in the report which we commissioned and was

:13:50. > :13:55.produced in 2011. We have carried out actions flowing from that, but

:13:55. > :13:59.we still identify problems and we want to see if we are doing things

:13:59. > :14:03.well and if we are not doing them well, and we want to get someone

:14:03. > :14:09.with independence to look at that so it is not regarded as some cover-up

:14:09. > :14:16.or a sham. Since that you have known this, why only act now? We have not

:14:17. > :14:19.only just acted now. We have five recommendations from those reports.

:14:19. > :14:27.We have taken actions on all of them. We have social services in

:14:27. > :14:32.bedded with police, we are giving additional funding to ensure safe

:14:32. > :14:35.choices are available to young people. We have provided therapeutic

:14:35. > :14:41.choices are available to young services to children with alcohol

:14:41. > :14:46.and drug problems. There are a whole series of actions. Should the re-met

:14:46. > :14:51.the extended to finding out why so little has been done? I do not

:14:51. > :14:54.accept that. What I do accept is that children are still being

:14:54. > :14:56.exploited. There are still perpetrators out there and we need

:14:56. > :15:00.exploited. There are still to do everything we can to ensure

:15:00. > :15:05.this is not the case. We will look at the actions we have carried out,

:15:05. > :15:21.it's some of them have failed, or if there is best practice elsewhere

:15:21. > :15:25.that we are not initiating, let us ensure that is the case. I am not

:15:25. > :15:27.saying that we will come out of this report with a perfect analysis, but

:15:28. > :15:29.nonetheless I am prepared to go out there and have that independent look

:15:29. > :15:31.nonetheless I am prepared to go out at what we do. Loyalist supergrass

:15:31. > :15:33.who got a heavily reduced prison sentence for agreeing to give

:15:33. > :15:35.evidence against eight men accused of murdering Martin O'Hagan will not

:15:36. > :15:39.have the deal overturned. He was accused of telling lies in court.

:15:39. > :15:46.The Public Prosecution Service said the evidence provided by Neil Hyde

:15:46. > :15:50.was not enough to secure convictions. Our Home Affairs

:15:50. > :15:55.correspondent reports. Martin O'Hagan was a journalist with the

:15:55. > :16:00.Sunday world. He was shot dead in Lurgan in 2001 as he walked home

:16:00. > :16:04.with his wife. The Loyalist Volunteer Force members Neil Hyde

:16:04. > :16:08.admitted his role in the killing and offered to become an assisting

:16:08. > :16:12.offender and give evidence against eight others he said were involved.

:16:12. > :16:17.In return for agreeing to tell the truth, he received a reduced

:16:17. > :16:21.sentence. Neil Hyde admitted 48 offences and was sentenced to three

:16:21. > :16:24.years in prison. The judge said that if he had not agreed to identify the

:16:24. > :16:31.alleged killers of Martin O'Hagan he would have been sent to jail for 18

:16:31. > :16:34.years. In January, the director of Public Prosecution Service announced

:16:34. > :16:38.that the evidence he gave was not enough to secure convictions. In

:16:38. > :16:45.June, it was announced that he had been sent back to court for his

:16:45. > :16:49.sentence to be reviewed. After his sentencing hearing, material was

:16:49. > :16:54.made available which has led us to the belief that he was not telling

:16:54. > :16:59.made available which has led us to us the full truth. The PPS withdrew

:16:59. > :17:02.the challenge. It said there was not sufficient evidence that Neil Hyde

:17:02. > :17:08.had breached the terms of his agreement. This is the second major

:17:08. > :17:13.setback for the so-called supergrass system. In January last year, a

:17:13. > :17:18.judge said he could not allow the evidence of self-confessed UVF

:17:18. > :17:24.members Robert and Ian Stewart. He accused them of lying and nine men

:17:24. > :17:28.accused of murder walked free. The PPS later said it found seven

:17:28. > :17:32.different occasions on which the brothers lied, but that the lies

:17:32. > :17:36.were not serious enough for the reduced sentences to be reviewed.

:17:36. > :17:41.This latest decision will fuel criticism of the system, it is based

:17:41. > :17:46.on a carrot and stick approach, the carrot is a reduced -- when an offer

:17:46. > :17:50.of a reduced sentence in return of giving evidence. The stick is the

:17:50. > :17:54.threat that that reduced sentence will be rescinded if the assisting

:17:54. > :17:58.offender is found to have lied. This is the second case where the

:17:59. > :18:03.integrity of the evidence given has been seriously questioned, but with

:18:03. > :18:08.no repercussions for those who gave it. Still to come on the programme.

:18:08. > :18:13.The dairy dig which is still going it. Still to come on the programme.

:18:13. > :18:21.down, down, deeper and down -- Derry. In some of the other news.

:18:21. > :18:26.The Dungannon woman Michaela McCollum has pleaded guilty to drug

:18:26. > :18:31.smuggling in her room. She was caught at Lima airport in August

:18:31. > :18:36.with cocaine worth over £1 million. Her co-accused, Scottish woman

:18:36. > :18:39.Melissa Reid also pleaded guilty. It means they are guaranteed a more

:18:39. > :18:44.lenient sentence and the prospect of being able to serve some of it in a

:18:44. > :18:49.UK prison. A 29-year-old man has been wounded in the legs in a

:18:49. > :18:53.paramilitary style shooting in west Belfast. The victim was forced into

:18:53. > :18:59.a car by three men last night and driven to dine fine walk in the Turf

:18:59. > :19:04.Lodge area where he was shot twice in each leg. His injuries are not

:19:04. > :19:09.life-threatening. The prosecution has now completed its case in the

:19:09. > :19:13.trial of Liam Adams who was accused of raping and assaulting his

:19:14. > :19:17.daughter more than 30 years ago. The 58-year-old from Bernagh Drive in

:19:18. > :19:27.Belfast denies ten offences against his daughter Aine. The oldest

:19:27. > :19:32.artefacts ever discovered in Londonderry have been unearthed

:19:32. > :19:36.during a day in the city centre. The archaeologists carrying out the work

:19:36. > :19:42.have been given a two-week extension and our reporter has been finding

:19:42. > :19:48.out what lies beneath. Many artefacts have been unearthed at

:19:48. > :19:53.this car park beside the historic walls of the city. These fragments

:19:53. > :19:57.of an early Bronze Age urn are of particular interest. They are

:19:57. > :20:03.evidence of the earliest settlement on what was once the island of

:20:03. > :20:08.Derry, dating back 4000 years. It shows us there was occupation here

:20:08. > :20:12.from the prehistoric period. It is not unsurprising, but it has never

:20:12. > :20:13.been found. If you look at the island of Derry, it is a prominent

:20:13. > :20:18.settlement, it has got the River island of Derry, it is a prominent

:20:18. > :20:24.Foyle on one side and the bog on the other, they are important sites for

:20:24. > :20:28.a settlement to protect it. 13 skeletons were found last week by

:20:28. > :20:35.the team excavating the site. Those are thought to be from the time of

:20:35. > :20:38.the siege of Derry. These latest artefacts are older, dating back to

:20:38. > :20:43.the Bronze Age and it could be more to come. The date has been extended

:20:43. > :20:47.by two weeks. The reason is because of the discoveries that have been

:20:47. > :20:52.made, including this piece that I have here. It is believed that this

:20:52. > :20:58.is from a Bronze Age urn, which is very exciting. It is the oldest

:20:58. > :21:02.artefact which has been found in this area ever. They are just a

:21:02. > :21:08.piece of flint and pottery, but they are giving a new generation an

:21:08. > :21:10.insight into something very old. It is really interesting and amazing to

:21:10. > :21:12.insight into something very old. It see stuff like this. I think

:21:12. > :21:15.children should have the knowledge see stuff like this. I think

:21:16. > :21:21.of what has happened in their city. They should know about this. This

:21:21. > :21:24.date has captured the imagination of the public and as it continues, many

:21:24. > :21:35.are wondering if anything else could lied the meat. -- lie beneath. Now

:21:35. > :21:39.it is time for the sport. Motor cyclists in County Down are not

:21:39. > :21:44.happy. This has to do with the Leadmines Park near Newtownards

:21:44. > :21:48.which has been a popular home for trial by King for many years. It is

:21:48. > :21:53.impressive stuff, but the brakes have been put on the sport following

:22:03. > :22:08.Trial by King is the only form of motor cycling -- would cycling which

:22:08. > :22:14.does not involve speed. It has been locked out of its County Down home,

:22:14. > :22:21.which hosted the world championships back in the 1980s. Needless to say,

:22:21. > :22:26.the bikers are not impressed. We are very concerned that we have lost

:22:26. > :22:34.this location for practice and without the practice, our sport is

:22:34. > :22:38.at a disadvantage. We need to have a location. Motor cycling has been

:22:38. > :22:43.taking place at the Leadmines for eight years, but the council are now

:22:43. > :22:47.in forcing their decision to ban all forms of motorcycling in the park.

:22:47. > :22:52.While we recognise that there is a long history of this taking place

:22:52. > :22:58.here, I would not say it is all of a sudden. Our policy has been in place

:22:58. > :23:04.and this has not changed. What we are doing is we are enforcing our

:23:04. > :23:09.policy, because we have had a lot of riders coming in, scrambler bikes

:23:09. > :23:12.coming in, which is an area of scientific interest. That seems to

:23:13. > :23:23.be the problem, the bikers feel there are sports is being mixed up

:23:24. > :23:27.with recreational scramblers, but could be causing damage. The message

:23:27. > :23:34.to the council from the biking community is simple. You have to let

:23:34. > :23:40.us in for the good of our sport. It has to happen. Our sport will die.

:23:40. > :23:43.The council confirmed they will begin at the decision, but for the

:23:43. > :23:51.meantime, trial bikers will have to find a new home. The County Antrim

:23:51. > :23:56.Shield champions Ballymena United are on course to retain the title

:23:56. > :24:04.following a win at home to Donegal Celtic. There are some heavy hitters

:24:04. > :24:07.waiting for them. 42 time winners of the County Antrim Shield Linfield

:24:07. > :24:11.got off to the perfect start through Brian McCall against are to have

:24:11. > :24:15.only won the competition on three occasions. The last time they were

:24:15. > :24:22.captained by the current Linfield bossed 20 years ago. They doubled

:24:22. > :24:26.their advantage, with this cross. In the second half, Linfield's

:24:27. > :24:30.attacking flair rewarded them with a third goal. The shot took a

:24:30. > :24:34.deflection of Matthew Tipton and third goal. The shot took a

:24:34. > :24:38.past the goalkeeper. In injury time, Newtownards got their name on

:24:38. > :24:45.the scoresheet twice. Firstly through Andy Mitchell and secondly

:24:45. > :24:52.from Craig Mulholland. We go from very confident in the first half, a

:24:53. > :24:56.slick performance, to being sloppy. There are parts of the game which

:24:56. > :25:02.pleased me immensely, and there are other parts would certainly was

:25:02. > :25:07.lessons to be learned. The same can be said in east Belfast as Glentoran

:25:08. > :25:14.fell to powerful header from left and Bill on the stroke of half-time.

:25:14. > :25:19.The league champions capitalised on slack defending to score a third

:25:26. > :25:35.the first half. We could have had more goals. Overall I am to light

:25:35. > :25:38.it. -- delighted. It is everything I wanted. Joining Cliftonville in then

:25:38. > :25:43.it. -- delighted. It is everything I last four are Crusaders. That is it

:25:43. > :26:00.from me. It is time for the weather. Dull would sum up the weather for

:26:00. > :26:05.Monday, Tuesday, and most of the week. We have got lots of cloud

:26:06. > :26:10.around and a little bit of showery rain overnight. All of that cloud

:26:10. > :26:16.does mean that temperatures tonight will stay mild, staying in two

:26:16. > :26:21.double figures. It might be a bit cooler, but generally a very mild

:26:21. > :26:27.night. As we go into tomorrow, it is a similar picture, a little bit more

:26:27. > :26:32.rain as we go through the day. None of it are very heavy, just that

:26:32. > :26:36.grisly stuff which will be present through the day. Temperatures are

:26:36. > :26:42.cooler, mid to low teens through the through the day. Temperatures are

:26:42. > :26:46.day, the chance of the odd break in the cloud, with a little bit of

:26:46. > :26:51.showery rain. Over the next few days, no sign of any significant

:26:52. > :26:55.change in that weather setup, it will be grey and cloudy, but on

:26:55. > :26:58.change in that weather setup, it Friday, it offers us the best chance

:26:58. > :27:07.of brightness, particularly through the afternoon and that will help

:27:07. > :27:12.temperatures on the rise. It will not change by the weekend, more rain

:27:12. > :27:18.around, a bit breezy on the north coast on Saturday, so what can we

:27:18. > :27:21.say about this week? Lovely weather for mushrooms, terrible weather for

:27:21. > :27:27.sunbathing. If you do spot a bright spell jury next few days, make the

:27:27. > :27:28.absolute most of them because they will be in very short supply in

:27:28. > :27:33.date. The only good news is it will will be in very short supply in

:27:33. > :27:39.be feeling reasonably mild for the rest of the week. Thank you. Our
