:01:01. > :01:06.But as Adams illness progressed he decided he wanted to give something
:01:07. > :01:10.back. He began raising money through his charity to refurbish the cancer
:01:11. > :01:16.ward at Withybush Hospital and to build a new chemotherapy day unit.
:01:17. > :01:22.In 2004 when he died his mother took on that legacy. We had been told and
:01:23. > :01:31.we were discussing purple lockers and all of this and it went on for
:01:32. > :01:35.another year and we were still enthusiastically fund-raising and
:01:36. > :01:42.it's been going on now for ten years. And still no unit. Through
:01:43. > :01:49.the high-profile nature of his appeal his mother has helped raise
:01:50. > :01:53.nearly ?700,000 for cancer services in temperature. She says she has
:01:54. > :01:58.repeatedly been given dates for when the work will start at now she wants
:01:59. > :02:04.the money back. I am making the money. People have believed in me so
:02:05. > :02:10.I am carrying the can. If we're not to have this unit and if you are not
:02:11. > :02:16.going to build it, I am going to ask for the money back and if you are
:02:17. > :02:20.not going to make up your mind we will use it to something else. A

:02:24. > :02:28.health board citing recruitment and staffing problems at Withybush

:03:14. > :03:18.Frequently, NHS charities ask you to give money for particular purpose

:04:37. > :04:40.He claimed he'd not meant to kill his wife, but had come to shoot
:04:41. > :04:43.But the prosecution says he planned the

:08:25. > :08:28.this began. Dry across the country tonight and a few clouds. A mild
:08:29. > :08:34.night but fresher than recent nights. Tomorrow morning will be dry
:08:35. > :08:38.with some cloud around but some brightness as well. Feeling
:08:39. > :08:43.pleasantly warm. Across the rest of the UK, a few spots of rain likely
:08:44. > :08:47.in Northern Ireland and south-west Scotland but otherwise a lot of
:08:48. > :08:51.places dry. There will be some cloud but some sunshine as well. Some rain

:09:10. > :09:17.again tomorrow with a southeasterly breeze. Rain will spread northwards
:09:18. > :09:21.tomorrow evening, heavy in places, turning try in the south and west
:09:22. > :09:26.but with scattered heavy showers. Into Friday, we have a trough of low
:09:27. > :09:30.pressure over southern Britain and that means more unsettled weather.
:09:31. > :09:34.Cloudy on Friday with outbreaks of rain in the North. Some bright
:09:35. > :09:40.spells for mid Wales and the South but also heavy showers. Enter the
:09:41. > :09:47.weekend, there will be further showers. But I can promise you some
:09:48. > :09:49.dry weather and sunshine as well. Sunday is probably the best day of
:09:50. > :09:53.the weekend. We're back with updates
:09:54. > :09:57.in the morning from around 6.25am. For now though, from all of us here,
