:03:53. > :03:59.you do not have time to put your creaking your toes against the

:04:00. > :04:07.ground. The place was lit up like their real and, because they work

:04:08. > :04:10.dropping flares. You could distinguish between the British and

:04:11. > :04:16.German planes. They had a different sound. The sounds were terrible to

:04:17. > :04:20.hear, that was the worst part. Some survivors brought --

:04:21. > :04:22.hear, that was the worst part. Some from the time. That

:04:23. > :04:26.hear, that was the worst part. Some before, we are in the shelter.

:04:27. > :04:31.hear, that was the worst part. Some led up to the street. We went to

:04:32. > :04:32.hear, that was the worst part. Some country because our house, the bomb

:04:33. > :04:41.had knocked in the working kitchen and the windows and all were

:04:42. > :04:44.smashed, we had nowhere to stay. These two fire engines travelled

:04:45. > :04:49.from the Republic to help deal with the blaze in Belfast. Today, 75

:04:50. > :04:50.years on, they have made the same journey again.

:04:51. > :04:53.A look ahead now to the latest in our constituency profiles

:04:54. > :04:55.and this week our south west reporter Julian Fowler goes

:04:56. > :05:03.on the election trail in Fermanagh and South Tyrone.

:05:04. > :05:10.This is about as far away as you can get from the corridors of power at

:05:11. > :05:15.Stormont. You can see all the way across the Loc. The elections here

:05:16. > :05:20.are often as dramatic as the view, and with a history of close results,

:05:21. > :05:24.Fermanagh and South Tyrone is said to be under the cliffhanger. --

:05:25. > :05:25.another cliffhanger. You can see that report -

:05:26. > :05:28.part of our continuing coverage in the run up to the Assembly

:05:29. > :05:31.election - this week Well, it was lovely

:05:32. > :05:41.to see the sunshine. Good evening. But self clouds are

:05:42. > :05:48.made, meaning a milder night. Quite breezy and places. Drizzle, not

:05:49. > :05:53.amounting to much. No frost on the car windscreens tomorrow morning. As

:05:54. > :05:56.far as the week ahead goes, milder generally, it should feel more

:05:57. > :06:01.springlike, lots of dry weather due to high pressure but cloud will vary

:06:02. > :06:07.from day to day. Tomorrow, for instance, starting off pretty cloudy

:06:08. > :06:09.and breezy. Thicker cloud will mean dampness here and there but a very,

:06:10. > :06:14.very small amount of rain. We should improve as the day goes on

:06:15. > :06:18.because the sunny skies over Scotland will edge south into

:06:19. > :06:21.northern England and parts of Northern Ireland. Staying cloudy

:06:22. > :06:24.across southern Britain and the Republic, with one or two spots of

:06:25. > :06:29.rain. And improving date tomorrow with

:06:30. > :06:32.brightness and sunshine coming through the afternoon, especially in

:06:33. > :06:38.the north. Most places ending up try, 12 degrees average for this

:06:39. > :06:42.time of year. High pressure dominates the weather

:06:43. > :06:47.for most of the week, but by the end of the week we have low pressure

:06:48. > :06:51.moving from the south and cold air coming back down from the north. It

:06:52. > :06:55.looks as though, although most of this week will be milder and more

:06:56. > :06:58.springlike, by the end of the bigot could get quite chilly.

:06:59. > :07:03.Light winds and sunshine at times on Tuesday, most places dry with

:07:04. > :07:05.temperatures close to bridge. Another pretty decent data, and

:07:06. > :07:09.Wednesday. Winds gradually moving into the

:07:10. > :07:12.Northeast on Thursday, expecting a drop in by Friday.

:07:13. > :07:14.Our next BBC Newsline bulletin is at 10:20pm.

:07:15. > :07:19.Until then, you can keep up to date with local news on BBC Radio Ulster

:07:20. > :07:23.From everyone on the BBC Newsline team, enjoy your evening.
