:00:50. > :01:05.Absolutely. If they hadn't, the councils wouldn't have paid able to
:01:06. > :01:13.fund it. There is a system of checks and balances. One of the reasons the

:02:03. > :02:06.the right result, that was first and foremost getting the three points,
:02:07. > :02:10.but nice to fill the shaft with a bit of style. Hopefully we didn't
:02:11. > :02:18.use too much energy tonight. We could pick the game up earlier than
:02:19. > :02:22.we did and relaxed more, but... It is a lot of time for the second goal

:04:23. > :04:25.telling him I love him, it gives me strength everyday and tells me what
:04:26. > :04:35.I have to do. They won't make it all the way up there, it will get as
:04:36. > :04:40.close to him as possible. This family have since gone on to have my
:04:41. > :04:47.children. Fathers are there to look after mothers as well, but it is
:04:48. > :04:51.nice to have a bit of support, too. The man has carried the baby but it
:04:52. > :04:58.blears a family at the end of the day. -- the mum has carried the
:04:59. > :04:59.baby. Every year the balloons have been released the sun has been
:05:00. > :05:02.shining. On BBC Newsline next week we'll

:05:48. > :05:52.Now with the weather forecast, here's Barra Best.
:05:53. > :05:59.Hello. There's not too bad an end to the day go some evening sunshine
:06:00. > :06:01.across eastern counties, but cloud will thicken up from less than at
:06:02. > :06:07.bringing with it some outbreaks of rain. When we hold onto some clearer
:06:08. > :06:10.skies tonight it will be chillier, but for many of us where the cloud
:06:11. > :06:14.persist and eight to 10 degrees. As for tomorrow, a little bit more
:06:15. > :06:20.unsettled and uncertainty feeling cooler than today. Grey damp skies
:06:21. > :06:24.for central and western areas, the best chance of sunshine in the
:06:25. > :06:27.eastern counties to begin with. Travelling tomorrow, with the
:06:28. > :06:30.exception of Ulster across Ireland is is a dry picture, it is a dry
:06:31. > :06:35.picture, a good bit of cloud with some sunny gaps. For Britain, the
:06:36. > :06:40.best of the weather will be across Scotland, the north-west of England,
:06:41. > :06:43.Wales and the south-west, but an onshore wind will dry in scattered
:06:44. > :06:47.shouts through eastern counties coming in as far as the Midlands at
:06:48. > :06:51.times. Temperatures for us all, 12 to 15 degrees. For us, tomorrow
:06:52. > :06:53.evening, there is some sunshine across eastern counties that should
:06:54. > :06:58.drift further west, before nightfall. 11 of 12 degrees the
:06:59. > :07:02.high, with a fairly light when. Those winds pick up as we go into
:07:03. > :07:06.Tuesday, the Tuesday overall not a bad day with plenty of dry weather.
:07:07. > :07:10.1314 degrees on land, but with onshore winds it will feel a bit
:07:11. > :07:14.cooler and fresher along the Antrim and County Down coast. As for the
:07:15. > :07:17.rest of the week, the winds begin to pick up as we have low pressure
:07:18. > :07:20.coming in. That low pressure likely brings sours as times, but also
:07:21. > :07:26.breaks up the cloud, allowing sunny spell through.
:07:27. > :07:32.From everyone on the BBC Newsline team, good-bye.
