:01:02. > :01:06.a move. In the past few weeks in my role as a teacher, I have been

:01:07. > :01:10.subjected to a campaign of sectarian intimidation. I have already

:01:11. > :01:16.expressed my warm thanks to all who have offered me support, family,

:01:17. > :01:19.friends, colleagues, trade unionists, educationalists and

:03:29. > :03:38.message from one 93-year-old who has begun yoga lessons after moving into

:03:39. > :03:45.a care home. She says the yoga classes are great exercise and a

:03:46. > :03:50.good social outlet. Touching your toes is a struggle for

:03:51. > :03:54.most of us. But this group of elderly pensioners would put many

:04:05. > :04:08.Among them was 93-year-old Beatrice Harper, who moved into this nursing

:04:09. > :04:13.home recently and decided to take up yoga a fortnight ago. I thought I

:04:14. > :04:23.needed exercise. I think to be just sitting all day and just eating,

:04:24. > :04:26.with no exercise... Instructor says yoga brings a lot of important

:04:27. > :04:36.mental, as well as the obvious physical benefits. It is also a lot

:04:37. > :04:39.to do with the spine. So we do a lot of work to keep the spine healthy

:04:40. > :04:43.and supple. Then there was the mental aspect I'm going into

:04:44. > :04:48.breeding and using techniques of relics Asian. The pensioners say it

:04:49. > :04:56.is a tough work-out, but worth the effort.

:04:57. > :05:02.Low pressure is in control, meaning we are in for an unsettled weekend.

:05:03. > :05:10.We have a scattering of showers today. There will be some decent dry

:05:29. > :05:37.be towards the eastern areas of England. The emphasis is on strong

:05:41. > :05:46.blustery, with scattered showers and spells of rain. There will be a lull

:05:47. > :05:49.in the wind in the afternoon, but in the evening, the winds will pick up

:05:50. > :05:57.again. Not especially chilly tonight. Tomorrow, there will be a

:05:58. > :06:01.scattering of showers, but not as many as today. And between the

:06:02. > :06:13.showers, it will lighten up. By the afternoon, we should see good spells

:06:14. > :06:16.of sunshine developing. Scattered showers coming in and spilling into

:06:17. > :06:21.Monday. A few of them could be wintry over the high ground, but we

:06:22. > :06:25.expect some decent weather as well. By Tuesday, another system will come

:06:26. > :06:28.in from the Atlantic, meaning it will be wet and windy again.
