Hello, and welcome to South Today. That's all from the | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Hello, and welcome to South Today. In tonight's programme: The ?12 | :00:00. | :00:07. | |
million project to stop Oxford from flooding. A plan to keep water away | :00:08. | :00:12. | |
from homes and businesses bx building a channel moves a step | :00:13. | :00:16. | |
closer. Also tonight: Concerns about the | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
impact of 600 new homes ` the village that's due to doubld in | :00:20. | :00:23. | |
size. The maths error that's sparked a new | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
row over rent rises in Oxford's Covered Market. | :00:27. | :00:31. | |
And later on: A piece of history going under the hammer ` thd German | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
warship bell which spent decades as a garden ornament. | :00:35. | :00:48. | |
Good evening. It's been agrded that a new multi`million pound flood | :00:49. | :00:52. | |
defence system should be buhlt around Oxford. Representatives from | :00:53. | :00:55. | |
groups like the Environment Agency, Network Rail, and Thames Water have | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
met today to discuss how to deal with the continual flooding problem. | :01:00. | :01:04. | |
But there are already concerns about funding and the knock`on effects on | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
other areas. In a moment, wd'll hear from Oxfordshire County Council But | :01:09. | :01:11. | |
first, Adina Campbell explahns how the proposed defence system would | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
work. It's been the same story for years. | :01:15. | :01:20. | |
This is Oxfordshire in 2007. And this is how it looked a couple of | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
months ago, Oxford's Abingdon Road submerged. But there is now new hope | :01:24. | :01:28. | |
of solving these problems for good if a new flood defence systdm is | :01:29. | :01:33. | |
built. The four`mile channel will carry water around the west of | :01:34. | :01:38. | |
Oxford. The idea is to relidve pressure from the River Thales, | :01:39. | :01:40. | |
making better use of flood plains south of the city. It is hoped this | :01:41. | :01:46. | |
would improve the flow of w`ter protecting more homes and | :01:47. | :01:48. | |
businesses, as well as transport links. But the project would be | :01:49. | :01:52. | |
expensive, costing about ?125 million. It's not yet clear who | :01:53. | :01:59. | |
would pay for that, and there are also concerns about areas lhke | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
Abingdon being more at risk of flooding if the flow of watdr | :02:03. | :02:08. | |
changes. News of a flood defence for | :02:09. | :02:11. | |
Oxfordshire will come as good news to many ` but the question hs how | :02:12. | :02:15. | |
quickly can it be built? I `sked the deputy leader of Oxfordshird County | :02:16. | :02:18. | |
Council, Rodney Rose. The projection we were given today | :02:19. | :02:21. | |
was for a build period, including planning and the land acquisition | :02:22. | :02:25. | |
that is needed for it. What has to happen to make it happen? It starts | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
off with needing three years to get the business case completelx up to | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
speed. We don't even know the exact location of where it would go on the | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
ground. At the moment, it is a strategy rather than when wd will | :02:39. | :02:41. | |
put the spade into the ground. It has to be done first, and then it is | :02:42. | :02:46. | |
five years of building the channel. How important was today's mdeting | :02:47. | :02:49. | |
about making the channel a realistic option? It was very important. It | :02:50. | :02:52. | |
showed there was commitment from Oxford and stakeholders that we | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
actually do want to have thhs, and to see if we can get the money | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
together. Solving the issue of flooding in Oxford is a really | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
important thing to do, isn't it Why would businesses locate to Oxford or | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
Oxfordshire if they're going to be shut for a week or two becatse the | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
city is closed? If I was investing millions in a high`tech bushness or | :03:12. | :03:15. | |
in the space business or anxthing like that, I'd be looking to make | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
sure I could keep continuitx of my workforce getting to work, ly staff | :03:19. | :03:22. | |
getting in and out. I would be looking at that. The whole world | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
wants to attract these businesses. We have to give what they w`nt. So | :03:27. | :03:30. | |
it has a long`term economic impact? It is a national problem. It is an | :03:31. | :03:34. | |
economic impact. I think more of the economic impact needs to be looked | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
at in the context of how we prevent flooding. What about the idda that | :03:39. | :03:41. | |
the A34, the underpasses thdre could be blocked off to water? We had that | :03:42. | :03:48. | |
idea yesterday. How about that as a cheaper solution? With all of these | :03:49. | :03:51. | |
submissions, you would have to know what you were doing, and wh`t you | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
were doing further down the track. I think until it has been moddlled by | :03:56. | :03:58. | |
the Environment Agency, unthl you have scientific fact behind it, you | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
could be making things a lot worse, or a lot worse elsewhere. The | :04:03. | :04:05. | |
channel might not happen. If it does, it's a long way off. What | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
about short` term? We're through winter, but in 2007, the flooding | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
was in summer. If it floods in summer, what has changed from 2 07 | :04:13. | :04:15. | |
for homes and businesses? Wd have protected a lot more individual | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
homes. We have temporary barricades and that sort of thing. We don't | :04:19. | :04:23. | |
have anything in place that would stop Oxfordshire coming to ` | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
standstill. That is just a problem to me. In the next seven or eight | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
years, it is as it is? We'rd trying to focus on shortening that period, | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
because eight years is a long time. Thank you. | :04:35. | :04:41. | |
A man's been arrested on suspicion of murder after two teenagers were | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
shot in Milton Keynes. 19`ydar`old Mohamed Farah and 18`year`old Amin | :04:45. | :04:47. | |
Ismail were fatally shot in an alleyway on the Fishermead dstate in | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
May 2011. Brahim Hajji was `rrested in Holland yesterday. He appeared at | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
Reading Crown Court this morning and was remanded in custody. Last year, | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
two other men were jailed for the same murders. | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
An Oxfordshire village could double in size in the next five ye`rs if | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
new housing plans go ahead. There are proposals to add another 60 | :05:09. | :05:12. | |
homes to Shrivenham, which hs just outside Swindon. People livhng there | :05:13. | :05:15. | |
are worried that the local community will suffer and that the | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
infrastructure won't cope whth the increased demand. Charlotte Stacey | :05:19. | :05:21. | |
has more. Eddie has been a landlord hdre at | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
the Prince of Wales pub in Shrivenham for three years. Even | :05:26. | :05:28. | |
though more homes might mean more customers for him, he is ag`inst a | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
big expansion. I think it whll spoil what we have, and that's thd thing. | :05:34. | :05:36. | |
Everybody knows everybody. Xou can walk up the street and everxone And | :05:37. | :05:41. | |
say hello to you, and if yot want to stop and chat, you can do that. But | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
to double in size will lose that unique feeling. But many ard | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
concerned about the effects more houses could have on servicds and | :05:49. | :05:51. | |
amenities, which they say are already struggling. There is not the | :05:52. | :05:56. | |
infrastructure in place to support that amount of growth. At the | :05:57. | :05:59. | |
moment, you struggle to park on the high street in the mornings, and | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
that is a good thing for business, but it will reach a breaking point. | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
It's a great community spirht here, and I feel if the village w`s | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
expanded too much, we would lose all that. If there are going to be any | :06:12. | :06:17. | |
jobs available, and people hn this village are able to get jobs, they | :06:18. | :06:21. | |
would have a massive commutd to the other side of the vale. Two large | :06:22. | :06:26. | |
areas of land are earmarked for development. Here on the sotth edge | :06:27. | :06:30. | |
of the village, they are proposing building 200 new homes, and here to | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
the north, they are building 40 . Shrivenham accepts that it will need | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
to expand. Our concern is the level of expansion that is planned for | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
Shrivenham. If the vale would look at these other villages and | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
redistribute the growth a lhttle more evenly, it would be much | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
fairer. The South Oxfordshire and Vale of White Horse district | :06:52. | :06:53. | |
councils say they recognise the concerns of the people living here | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
in Shrivenham, but say therd is an urgent need to get new houshng plans | :06:58. | :07:00. | |
in place, and difficult dechsions will have to be made. Howevdr, they | :07:01. | :07:05. | |
say they are looking forward to a public meeting here next wedk, and | :07:06. | :07:08. | |
will continue to assess othdr options. | :07:09. | :07:15. | |
A Government task force has said the HS2 rail project needs a minister to | :07:16. | :07:18. | |
co`ordinate local growth projects along its route. The high`speed | :07:19. | :07:22. | |
service will run through North Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire The | :07:23. | :07:26. | |
HS2 Growth Taskforce says a dedicated minister worked wdll for | :07:27. | :07:29. | |
the Olympics and Paralympics, and it could do the same for HS2. The first | :07:30. | :07:35. | |
section of the HS2 line, th`t will run from London to Birmingh`m, is | :07:36. | :07:39. | |
set to open in 2026. Traders in Oxford's Covered Market | :07:40. | :07:42. | |
have criticised the City Cotncil for asking to put their rents up by | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
20%.The increase is nearly three times higher than that recently set | :07:47. | :07:51. | |
by an independent arbitrator. It had been hoped his decision could be | :07:52. | :07:55. | |
applied across the market to settle a long`running dispute. But the City | :07:56. | :07:58. | |
Council says an error in calculations means that's not | :07:59. | :08:03. | |
possible. Helen Catt reports. Butchers, bakers and...well, candle | :08:04. | :08:05. | |
sellers, are among the shops filling Oxford's covered market. For the | :08:06. | :08:11. | |
last two years, they have bden at odds with the City Council over how | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
much more they should be paxing to be there. Last year, it was hoped an | :08:16. | :08:18. | |
independent arbitrator would settle the question for good. Five shops | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
here went to arbitration. The results were rent rises of between | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
3% and 12%. But the council has now written to other shops saying it | :08:28. | :08:30. | |
wants much more than that. The traders' view is very clear. If | :08:31. | :08:35. | |
we've got to have an increase, at least give us the same incrdase that | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
the others have been given by going to arbitration. Let's stop this now, | :08:39. | :08:42. | |
and let us get on with tradhng without this cloud hanging over us. | :08:43. | :08:49. | |
The council says it's not that black`and`white. We went to the | :08:50. | :08:54. | |
arbitrator on these five unhts in expectation we would be abld to use | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
that as a model for the othdr offers. As it happened, the | :08:59. | :09:01. | |
arbitration award that was lade contained an error, so it is not a | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
good basis for making offers to our other tenants in the market. The BBC | :09:06. | :09:10. | |
has not been able to contact the arbitrator or see his report. The | :09:11. | :09:14. | |
City Council says if the lower rate was applied across the markdt, it | :09:15. | :09:18. | |
would lose out on ?500,000 over five years. But traders say they can t | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
afford a bigger increase. If the two sides can't agree, the only choice | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
will be for them too to go to arbitration. | :09:28. | :09:33. | |
The F1 team Red Bull has bedn given the freedom of the borough of Milton | :09:34. | :09:37. | |
Keynes. The honour has only been bestowed four times before `nd is a | :09:38. | :09:41. | |
ceremonial title. The motor racing team have been based in the Tilbrook | :09:42. | :09:45. | |
area of the new city since 2004 The team has won 47 Grands Prix, and its | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
driver Sebastian Vettel is ` four`times World Champion. | :09:50. | :09:53. | |
They are a fantastic asset to us in Milton Keynes. We're really proud to | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
have them. And they are protd to be here in Milton Keynes as well. They | :09:58. | :10:00. | |
never miss a chance to menthon Milton Keynes when they get on the | :10:01. | :10:04. | |
news, and that is really appreciated, and the way thdy have | :10:05. | :10:07. | |
worked with us. This is an absolutely right recognition. We are | :10:08. | :10:14. | |
proud to be doing it. Now, if you'd like to get in touch | :10:15. | :10:19. | |

bit for charity ` we see sole of your Sport Relief fundraising | :10:44. | :10:50. | |
moments. It's often easy to forget about what's lying around otr homes | :10:51. | :10:54. | |
` but if you look closely enough you may just uncover a piece of history. | :10:55. | :10:59. | |
For more than 70 years an iron bell sat in a garden. It turns ott that | :11:00. | :11:07. | |
it belonged to a German warship which played an important p`rt in | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
the first attack on British soil in World War One. The story ends in | :11:12. | :11:14. | |
Southampton but started 100 years ago off the North East coast. Chris | :11:15. | :11:27. | |
Robinson reports. When Germ`n battleships attacked Britain in | :11:28. | :11:34. | |
December 1914, the coastal town of Hartlepool took a direct hit. The | :11:35. | :11:37. | |
shelling killed more than 100 people, injuring hundreds more. | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
Violet was a seven`year`old girl at the time. She was interviewdd by the | :11:43. | :11:48. | |
BBC for a recent documentarx. I went upstairs and looked out the bedroom | :11:49. | :11:57. | |
window. I could see the flashes I thought they were going to come and | :11:58. | :12:01. | |
take us, and kill us. One of the ships was this vessel. It fought in | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
the Battle of Jutland but after the war was sunk when the German fleet | :12:07. | :12:14. | |
surrender. She was submerged until 1938 when she was raised and sold | :12:15. | :12:21. | |
for scrap. Locked away in storage in Southampton, this is the shhp's | :12:22. | :12:26. | |
Bell. It spent 70 years sat in a garden. It was only when other items | :12:27. | :12:30. | |
were looked at to be auctioned was its history being told. Havhng found | :12:31. | :12:39. | |
it in a brush, I thought, this is something special. `` rush. I was | :12:40. | :12:47. | |
not sure, but I and did somd research. How significant is this? | :12:48. | :12:53. | |
Very significant. There are very few of these Bell is left in exhstence. | :12:54. | :13:00. | |
I know of one other. The Dell will be auctioned tomorrow and is | :13:01. | :13:15. | |
expected to fetch ?5,000. The music and fashion industries are | :13:16. | :13:18. | |
still reeling from the news earlier this week that Mick Jagger's | :13:19. | :13:21. | |
girlfriend L'Wren Scott had been found dead. Fellow Rolling Stone | :13:22. | :13:24. | |
Ronnie Wood has Tweeted that all their thoughts are with Mick and | :13:25. | :13:27. | |
L'Wren's family. The band are currently on tour, something which | :13:28. | :13:30. | |
has been a trademark of thehr long musical career. Five decades ago, | :13:31. | :13:33. | |
the Rolling Stones were just making their way in the industry. @nd they | :13:34. | :13:37. | |
were making their way across the Solent to play on the Isle of Wight. | :13:38. | :13:47. | |
Alex Dyke looks back on that event. 1964, it is the birth of pirate | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
radio. Goldfinger is the latest James Bond film. The Beatles had | :13:52. | :13:57. | |
just completed then you single. The Rolling Stones played... Brhghton | :13:58. | :14:03. | |
Pavilion? Tickets went on s`le on the 23rd of vibrate for the two | :14:04. | :14:07. | |
shows here at the Pavilion. They were a brand`new chart band. `` | :14:08. | :14:17. | |
February. By the time they played here, they were playing thehr | :14:18. | :14:23. | |
version of Not Fake Away. Lhmousines were not on the cards for the | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
Rolling Stones. They arrived in Cortina. Security was stretched .. | :14:28. | :14:41. | |
All 12 of them. New `` was ht the huge deal that we all think it was, | :14:42. | :14:44. | |
or was it another chart band visiting the island? It was probably | :14:45. | :14:49. | |
the first chart band to visht the island. I think the only bands I had | :14:50. | :14:57. | |
seen previously were Tommy Steele, and I saw the Shadows play hn | :14:58. | :15:03. | |
Portsmouth. The Rolling Stones played two shows here, and they | :15:04. | :15:11. | |
decide to stay all the way over here, at the Rye Castle. Thd person | :15:12. | :15:21. | |
who was here at the time thought it would be a good idea to get the word | :15:22. | :15:24. | |
out that the Rolling Stones were staying here. They put lots of | :15:25. | :15:28. | |
adverts up. What happened? Xou can guess. Tell me about this | :15:29. | :15:32. | |
photograph. That is the Pavhlion, is it not? This is Brian Jones? Yes. | :15:33. | :15:42. | |
And that is Mick Jagger. Funnily enough, the Rolling Stones did | :15:43. | :15:45. | |
return to the Isle of Wight. It was not until 2007, but this tile, it | :15:46. | :15:52. | |
was a little bit to get! `` a little bit bigger! I am excited about the | :15:53. | :16:03. | |
sports tonight. I'm excited because Tony might sing. No, I could not | :16:04. | :16:11. | |
compete with these guys! I thought you were joining in! I was never one | :16:12. | :16:20. | |
for the punk rock. It is a big weekend, though. It is one of those | :16:21. | :16:24. | |
occasions where the whole town rallies round. It will be a great | :16:25. | :16:28. | |
day at Wembley. Gosport Borough s players had a look around Wdmbley | :16:29. | :16:31. | |
today as they prepare to face Cambridge United in Sunday's FA | :16:32. | :16:34. | |
Trophy final. It'll be one of those days where a town goes eerily quiet | :16:35. | :16:38. | |
as more than 12,000 fans follow the team to the national stadiul. And | :16:39. | :16:42. | |
the backing is already noisx. # This is my town. This is ly town. | :16:43. | :16:52. | |
The song is Gosport town. This is a local band appearing on BBC Radio | :16:53. | :16:58. | |
Solent today, celebrating Gosport's first trip to Wembley. It is a | :16:59. | :17:04. | |
tradition that has been lost with all the big clubs. We going back to | :17:05. | :17:10. | |
the 1970s and 1980s, where our are, and we are trying to revive the cup | :17:11. | :17:17. | |
final song. We have joined hn, and we are sticking our boot in as well. | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
It is good for our communitx. The band and Gosport fans know that they | :17:23. | :17:26. | |
are the underdogs against C`mbridge United. But that is music to the | :17:27. | :17:33. | |

two Canada Geese in the sunshine at Titchfield Haven. So, let's talk | :21:08. | :21:18. | |
about the weather. We have ` contrast in temperatures from last | :21:19. | :21:23. | |
weekend. Last weekend, 18 Cdlsius. This weekend, nine or 10 degrees. | :21:24. | :21:31. | |
You will need those thermals if you out and about. Tonight, we will have | :21:32. | :21:40. | |
some showers. They will drift in from the West and will be some | :21:41. | :21:43. | |
torrential downpours at timds, but they will clear in the second part | :21:44. | :21:48. | |
of the night. We may have whnter we showers over the Chilterns `nd | :21:49. | :21:51. | |
Cotswolds. Maybe a dusting of snow here, but it is likely to f`ll as | :21:52. | :21:57. | |
rain or hail. Temperatures dropped to two or three Celsius. A chilly | :21:58. | :22:03. | |
start tomorrow morning, and the showers will get going once again. A | :22:04. | :22:07. | |
wintry element across Oxfordshire, but elsewhere it will fall `s rain | :22:08. | :22:11. | |
or hail. I am not ruling out lightning or funder. A high of eight | :22:12. | :22:18. | |
or nine Celsius. `` funder. `` funder. | :22:19. | :22:22. | |
With winds fairly light, thdre is a risk of a touch of frost first thing | :22:23. | :22:31. | |
on Sunday morning. Similar temperatures to tonight with lows of | :22:32. | :22:35. | |
23 Celsius. We are expecting some showers to start the day on Sunday, | :22:36. | :22:40. | |
but Sunday should be an improving picture with a slight ridge of high | :22:41. | :22:44. | |
pressure building in from the south. It will turn more settled in the | :22:45. | :22:48. | |
afternoon, and thence they settled into Monday. This area of low | :22:49. | :22:53. | |
pressure will bring rain in on Tuesday. Let's talk about the | :22:54. | :22:56. | |
weekend because we are expecting some wonder we showers tomorrow We | :22:57. | :23:02. | |
could have some lightning whth that `` thundery showers. A cloudy start | :23:03. | :23:08. | |
to Monday, but a very chillx start, and the risk of a hard frost. A | :23:09. | :23:16. | |
Lexus, thank you. A big night tonight, of course. Running, | :23:17. | :23:20. | |
pedalling, climbing, swimming.. Whatever the feat of physic`l | :23:21. | :23:23. | |
endurance, someone's almost bound to have had a go in aid of BBC Sport | :23:24. | :23:27. | |
Relief today. Thousands of poor and disadvantaged people in the UK and | :23:28. | :23:30. | |
around the world will benefht greatly from what's grown into a | :23:31. | :23:33. | |
hugely enjoyable sporting spectacle. Let's see what people around the | :23:34. | :23:36. | |
South have been doing, starting with a not so mild mannered maths teacher | :23:37. | :23:46. | |
in Berkshire. There was no sign of Mr Dennis' altar ego drawing this | :23:47. | :23:50. | |
maths lesson this morning. Ht is something he had kept hidden from | :23:51. | :23:56. | |
his students until now. # What does not kill you makes you | :23:57. | :24:03. | |
stronger! This maths teacher by day is a weekend wrestler. Eddid Dennis | :24:04. | :24:13. | |
is a pro. I am a bit more ndrvous than other shows. I am quitd | :24:14. | :24:17. | |
exposed, and it shows a different part of your personality and your | :24:18. | :24:22. | |
life to the kids. Sport Relhef is as good a time as any. He helps to | :24:23. | :24:28. | |
boost fundraising efforts bx ?2 00. The teacher is nothing without | :24:29. | :24:34. | |
respect, but Willie ever live this down? It is great, it is qu`lity | :24:35. | :24:41. | |
because not many teachers do it I thought he was going to throw the | :24:42. | :24:46. | |
other person into the audience! I definitely will not be doing my | :24:47. | :24:53. | |
homework now! This is my brdak time. I would get changed quickly and go | :24:54. | :24:58. | |
back to the GCSE maths lesson. Here's a cool teacher, definitely. | :24:59. | :25:14. | |
This primary school in Littlehampton sang their hearts out for Sport | :25:15. | :25:27. | |
Relief. In Southampton, thex splashed and laughed their way to | :25:28. | :25:35. | |
the finish line. Children from the school mixed with Rio's hopdfuls in | :25:36. | :25:45. | |
2016. It makes you more aware of what is going on around the world. | :25:46. | :25:50. | |
It was a great day to hop, skip and jump on this beach. Pupils from this | :25:51. | :25:59. | |
primary school took part. Today was not reserved for the young. Elderly | :26:00. | :26:02. | |
residents, volunteers and staff from a care home walked more than a mile | :26:03. | :26:08. | |
along the seafront, collecthng many smiles from passers by. Thex got on | :26:09. | :26:16. | |
their hands and knees at thhs school. 940 human wheelbarrows were | :26:17. | :26:25. | |
completed for charity. I am so tired! Your hands and wrists really | :26:26. | :26:29. | |
hurt. It is really good and makes people know that people want to do | :26:30. | :26:33. | |
something about it. It is rdally good. The aim for this year was to | :26:34. | :26:39. | |
cycle, swim or do anything, and that is exactly what people did. Well | :26:40. | :26:49. | |
done to all of you. All that money going to great causes. The programme | :26:50. | :26:52. | |
kicks off straight after thhs programme, with all sorts of fun | :26:53. | :27:02. | |
things to night. Dell `` thdre is also the first play of Engl`nd's | :27:03. | :27:12. | |
World Cup song. Give as a btrst # This is my... You did not join in! | :27:13. | :27:24. | |
You promised you would join in! Bye`bye. | :27:25. | :27:26. |
