We got some sandwiches on the way. They handed them in the window. The

brothers said little about the controversy surrounding illegal

ticketing. They were more concerned about the boxer Paddy Barnes.

escaped with lots of dry weather. A lot of cloud has come in, but a few

of us will get some glimmers of sunshine before nightfall.

It's going to be a warm night, with temperatures typically around 13 or

bit breezy, but the winds helped to break up the cloud, and through the

day spells of sunshine will come and go and we will hold onto a bit of

cloud as well. It will feel quite pleasant outdoors, typically a -- 18

or 19 degrees, but where we have sunny spells you could see 21

degrees. If you are heading towards Ballycastle, there will be a good

is the last day of summer, we can expect a few scattered showers but

also some sunny spells. Not a bad picture for the rest of the week,

temperatures staying up. That's it for now; our late

summary at 10:35 tonight.
