Hello and welcome to Thursday's Look North. Tonight: | :00:02. | :00:05. | |
A popular adventure park is closed to the public after a neighbour | :00:05. | :00:10. | |
complains about noise. The glimmer of hope in the long- | :00:10. | :00:13. | |
running fight to bring the region's fishing industry back from the | :00:13. | :00:23. | |
brink. The American teenager on a trip of | :00:23. | :00:26. | |
a lifetime to the Yorkshire Dales, and all because she wants to follow | :00:26. | :00:36. | |
:00:36. | :00:41. | ||
in the footsteps of James Herriot. Bath and we are live in Berwick on | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
the first anniversary of the torch relay. | :00:44. | :00:47. | |
In sport - Warner's suspended and Joe Root hits back after the | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
weekend's altercation with a half century for England. | :00:49. | :00:52. | |
And the Great North swimmers taking the plunge in memory of lost | :00:52. | :01:02. | |
:01:02. | :01:04. | ||
It was a popular adventure park visited by thousands of people | :01:04. | :01:09. | |
every week. But now Beamish Wild in County Durham has been closed to | :01:09. | :01:12. | |
the public because it's too noisy. The park was a favourite among | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
children, but a neighbour complained and the site was issued | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
with a noise abatement order. That means there's been a big drop in | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
visitor numbers and only small pre- booked groups are allowed at the | :01:21. | :01:31. | |
Beamish Wild used to be a buzz of activity as children climbed, | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
whizzed through the air, made their way across obstacles and tried to | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
solve puzzles. There were tractor rides, too. | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
But not everybody was happy. A house backs onto this land and the | :01:40. | :01:47. | |
owners complained about the sound of rowdy youngsters. A noise | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
abatement order was issued by the local authority. Now, just an eerie | :01:50. | :01:56. | |
silence and 15 jobs have been lost. As a result of the noise abatement, | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
or we had to take the decision that we have to close to the public and | :02:01. | :02:07. | |
only offer the type of activities that we offer two groups and | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
advance bookings. Said the number of people that we can actually | :02:12. | :02:17. | |
accommodate it has been reduced dramatically. | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
We've been unable to contact the neighbour who made the complaint. | :02:19. | :02:21. | |
Meanwhile Durham County Council gave us a statement: | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
The council is always keen to help businesses work through what they | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
can do to reduce the impact of noise from their premises which is | :02:28. | :02:29. | |
causing a statutory nuisance to local residents. | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
As such we have continued to discuss any problems the company | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
has raised in an effort to help resolve the matter to the | :02:35. | :02:38. | |
satisfaction of all involved. Beamish Wild say it would be | :02:38. | :02:46. | |
difficult to reduce the noise of excited children. We are a very | :02:46. | :02:54. | |
family orientated attraction. It aimed at children between eight and | :02:54. | :03:01. | |
12. The vast amount of our visitors were young families. On busy days | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
they'd have up to 800 visitors. The site is still open to smalll pre- | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
booked groups, like schools visiting here, but not the general | :03:07. | :03:09. | |
public. Now, the only part open to all of | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
us is the high ropes course. That by itself doesn't make too much | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
noise. A few metres away is the restaurant and bar. It still gets | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
busy, but they have noticed a difference. Business is OK because | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
of the weather, but we have noticed a reduction in the number of | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
families coming down and spending a fault day with us. Before the noise | :03:31. | :03:41. | |
:03:41. | :03:42. | ||
abatement order, we had a lot of activities. So the park is | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
surviving. But it's not the roaring success | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
with general public it could be. The former chair of Cleveland | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
Police Authority has told a court it was possible he was driving his | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
car when it was caught speeding. Dave McLuckie is accused of | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
persuading a friend to accept his penalty points because he feared he | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
would lose his licence and that, it's claimed, would have | :04:00. | :04:04. | |
jeopardised his chances of becoming head of the police authority. | :04:04. | :04:14. | |
:04:14. | :04:15. | ||
Stuart Whincup was in court. Dave McLuckie told the court that a | :04:15. | :04:25. | |
:04:25. | :04:26. | ||
good friend of his what regularly used his car. When his car was | :04:26. | :04:33. | |
clocked, he thought his friend was driving and he agreed to take the | :04:33. | :04:43. | |
:04:43. | :04:49. | ||
penalty points. But a few years later, the two men fell out. | :04:49. | :04:54. | |
Maurice became bitter because he had cancer and wanted to sue the | :04:54. | :05:01. | |
local health a authority and wanted help from Dave McLuckie. Dave | :05:01. | :05:06. | |
McLuckie also told the court that he never feared losing out on the | :05:06. | :05:15. | |
top job at the police authority. He said it was possible to do the job | :05:15. | :05:21. | |
even if he did not have a driving licence. He said he had no | :05:21. | :05:25. | |
recollection of what happened that day it eight years ago and he said | :05:25. | :05:33. | |
it was possible he could have been driving, but Maurice Ward accepted | :05:33. | :05:40. | |
that he was driving. The prosecution said that Maurice Ward | :05:40. | :05:45. | |
was a sitting duck and Dave McLuckie was convinced he would get | :05:45. | :05:52. | |
away with it. He did get away with it, but that was until now. The | :05:52. | :05:57. | |
case continues. The Government has announced more | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
than �10 million is to be spent to encourage business growth on | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
Teesside. Around half the money is coming from the European Union. | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
It's being targeted mainly at the St Hilda's area of Middlesbrough | :06:06. | :06:09. | |
and Darlington's Central Park. Much of the cash is intended to create | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
jobs in the digital and creative media sectors. | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
It seems there's a glimmer of hope in the long-running fight to bring | :06:15. | :06:18. | |
the region's fishing industry back from the brink. After years of | :06:18. | :06:22. | |
quotas and restrictions, cod stocks in the North Sea seem to be on the | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
rise. But for fishermen who continue to face tough times, it's | :06:25. | :06:34. | |
difficult to see any light at the end of the tunnel. | :06:34. | :06:43. | |
It is for a Ian and this boat edges out of the harbour. The trawler | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
cuts a lonely figure and the owner can only reflect on how this once | :06:47. | :06:55. | |
vibrant industry has changed. communities have been devastated. | :06:55. | :07:05. | |
:07:05. | :07:08. | ||
There is no fishing left. 10 years ago, there were 30 trawlers working | :07:08. | :07:14. | |
out of Whitby. Now this is the only one, but as fish stocks improved, | :07:14. | :07:20. | |
things are looking up. A recent survey by the Marine stewardship | :07:20. | :07:29. | |
Council suggests that cod levels are increasing and they could reach | :07:29. | :07:39. | |
:07:39. | :07:41. | ||
sustainable levels, allowing Whitby cod lovers to tuck in, guilt-free. | :07:41. | :07:50. | |
We had been waiting a long time for this. We have been seen increases | :07:50. | :07:57. | |
in the cod stock. Now it is coming close to the level that is deemed | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
to be sustainable. It is just a matter of time before we get there. | :08:01. | :08:06. | |
For most would-be fishermen at time is something they do not have. They | :08:06. | :08:16. | |
have either sold up or diversified. Preserving that way of life is a | :08:16. | :08:25. | |
major importance and now things are heading in the right direction. But | :08:25. | :08:32. | |
there are some hoops that are hurdles too far. We have to declare | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
our catch before we go into the harbour, but how do we know what it | :08:36. | :08:46. | |
:08:46. | :08:47. | ||
will be? At least now, there odds are looking good. -- the odds are | :08:47. | :08:52. | |
looking good. A full-scale flood emergency | :08:52. | :08:54. | |
exercise took place in a County Durham village this morning, | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
complete with a search and rescue helicopter. Lanchester was flooded | :08:57. | :09:00. | |
on so-called Thunder Thursday last June and again only last month. Now | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
villagers are taking flood response action into their own hands. | :09:05. | :09:09. | |
No athletics this morning. There's a helicopter landing on the school | :09:09. | :09:12. | |
playing field. Very exciting for the pupils of St Bede's High School | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
in Lanchester. But it's serious business for | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
Teesdale and Weardale Mountain Rescue practising their drills for | :09:17. | :09:22. | |
a genuine flooding emergency. And Lanchester is very familiar | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
with floods. Twice within the past year the village has been under | :09:26. | :09:35. | |
water. Lanchester is in a valley and there are hills. The water | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
comes down like a river and the drains are not coping. That is the | :09:39. | :09:46. | |
main reason for the floods. Today's exercise was designed to | :09:46. | :09:48. | |
encourage the community to help themselves when widespread flooding | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
could stretch the emergency services and local people will be | :09:51. | :09:56. | |
the first responders. Historically, Lanchester has flooded and number | :09:56. | :10:00. | |
of times over the last hundred years, but in recent times, the | :10:00. | :10:07. | |
floods have been particularly high. The floods last year affected a lot | :10:07. | :10:12. | |
of properties. Today is very much about how the community can help | :10:12. | :10:20. | |
itself, what is available to them, either in the early stages when the | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
warnings come. A stockpile of aquasacs is | :10:24. | :10:27. | |
Lanchester's first line of defence. They're bags filled with a special | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
gel that swell up when soaked with floodwater to become sandbags. The | :10:32. | :10:40. | |
local agencies have chosen a good day for this trial. This community | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
has experience flooding and number of time in recent years, but they | :10:43. | :10:48. | |
are now prepared for any future flooding. What they have learned | :10:48. | :10:52. | |
here can be shared with other communities in County Durham and | :10:52. | :10:58. | |
beyond. A scheme to harness the power of | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
the River Tyne to produce electricity has been abandoned. The | :11:01. | :11:03. | |
Hexham Hydro project beat 900 others across the country to win | :11:03. | :11:06. | |
initial funding of �100,000, but supporters say rising costs now | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
make it impractical. The project would have involved a hydro turbine | :11:09. | :11:13. | |
at the weir at Hexham, producing electricity for up to 200 homes. | :11:13. | :11:15. | |
But today its organisers said costs have risen from an initial �1 | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
million to an estimated �2.5 million - too high a price for a | :11:18. | :11:28. | |
:11:28. | :11:32. | ||
community project. Still to come, Thursday's sports | :11:32. | :11:40. | |
news. Also, we are live in Berwick on the first anniversary of the | :11:40. | :11:47. | |
Olympic torch relay. Join me for details of an unsettled forecast | :11:47. | :11:56. | |
and the wall and fell away winning photograph for May. -- and we will | :11:56. | :12:00. | |
reveal our were winning photograph for May. | :12:00. | :12:03. | |
She has a lifelong ambition to become a vet. So what better place | :12:03. | :12:06. | |
to visit than the World of James Herriot in the Yorkshire Dales? | :12:06. | :12:09. | |
Rose Wright is 15 and has a brain tumour. But she's travelled | :12:09. | :12:12. | |
thousands of miles from her home in Illinois in the United States after | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
becoming a fan of the Herriot books when she was a little girl. Peter | :12:16. | :12:19. | |
Lugg has been to meet her. The petty cash jar on the mantle | :12:19. | :12:22. | |
piece, Mrs Pumphrey's pampered pooch Tricky Woo and some of | :12:22. | :12:24. | |
Siegfried's magic potions. An American girl in Darroby, otherwise | :12:24. | :12:34. | |
:12:34. | :12:43. | ||
known as Thirsk - the real life All Creatures Great and Small has | :12:43. | :12:47. | |
no bigger fan that 15-year-old Rose Wright from Illinois. Rose has been | :12:47. | :12:50. | |
very ill recently, but now she's feeling a little better, she's | :12:50. | :12:53. | |
determined to enjoy a family holiday to a world she's only read | :12:53. | :13:03. | |
:13:03. | :13:04. | ||
about in books or watched on grainy old TV shows. I think on the sleep | :13:04. | :13:10. | |
a lot of the story lines and movies in the US right now are trendy. | :13:10. | :13:17. | |
They will go away soon, but I think the James Herriot's stories were | :13:17. | :13:23. | |
made in the early 1960s and 1970s and we still love them. I think it | :13:23. | :13:29. | |
is better to invest in something that will last that long. | :13:29. | :13:32. | |
The holiday, arranged by the Make A Wish Foundation, was the idea of | :13:32. | :13:40. | |
Roses's parents. It's not like anything we see in America. It is | :13:40. | :13:47. | |
very quirky and delightful. For Alf Wright's daughter Rose's | :13:47. | :13:49. | |
visit was confirmation of her father's vetinerary tales | :13:49. | :13:54. | |
international appeal. He would have loved the fact that he is giving | :13:54. | :13:59. | |
this goal pleasure. She told me that when she started her first | :13:59. | :14:07. | |
book, she could not put it down. From the top of Sutton Bank a | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
bird's eye view of the landscape that both fictional and real life | :14:10. | :14:13. | |
vets worked in. Tomorrow, farmyard mud, clever sheepdogs and a pair of | :14:13. | :14:23. | |
:14:23. | :14:26. | ||
rubber gloves. The region Sinfonia orchestra now comes by royal | :14:26. | :14:33. | |
appointment. It is the first on it to be given for 20 years. The | :14:33. | :14:37. | |
Sinfonia is the only full-time professional chamber orchestra in | :14:37. | :14:41. | |
the country. Its leader says the new title is a great honour and a | :14:42. | :14:47. | |
tribute to the international quality of its musicians. | :14:47. | :14:50. | |
It's exactly a year since the Olympic torch relay began its | :14:50. | :14:52. | |
momentous journey through our region. On a Thursday afternoon in | :14:52. | :14:55. | |
June the torch crossed the Scottish border into Berwick to be greeted | :14:55. | :14:58. | |
by thousands of people lining the route. One of the torchbearers | :14:58. | :15:01. | |
likened the experience to her wedding day and the birth of her | :15:01. | :15:07. | |
children. Tonight and all next week on Look North we look back at those | :15:07. | :15:15. | |
memorable days. Peter Harris is live for us in Berwick now. Peter. | :15:15. | :15:21. | |
I have got the torch. Yes, a year ago they were packing up after the | :15:21. | :15:25. | |
party. The torch had come into England from Scotland. It had come | :15:26. | :15:32. | |
over this new bridge at the start of a fortnight of momentous events | :15:32. | :15:36. | |
across the North East and Cumbria. I am pleased to say the person who | :15:36. | :15:46. | |
:15:46. | :15:47. | ||
carried the torch across the bridge is here. Hello, Magritte. He told | :15:47. | :15:51. | |
us after you had done the run that it was equal to marriage and the | :15:51. | :15:56. | |
birth of your children. Is that right? That is right. It was | :15:56. | :16:01. | |
unbelievable. Rather like marriage and children, you don't realise | :16:01. | :16:07. | |
until you are in the middle of it how fantastic it is. Does describe | :16:07. | :16:16. | |
what it was like? -- just describe what it was like. There was music, | :16:16. | :16:24. | |
children, banners, it was almost indescribable. The mayor of Berwick | :16:24. | :16:30. | |
is with us now. What was it like for at how might this have in this | :16:30. | :16:36. | |
going on? There was a fantastic spirit. There are 10,000 people | :16:36. | :16:41. | |
here. The sun was shining, music was playing, it was just everyone | :16:41. | :16:46. | |
getting together. There was a barbecue and activities for the | :16:46. | :16:52. | |
children. I think it was great everywhere that it went. Margaret | :16:52. | :17:00. | |
was nominated by her grandchildren. Why did you do that? Because she | :17:00. | :17:05. | |
helps the community and she is a school governor as well. You said | :17:05. | :17:11. | |
she was good for her age as well, but I won't ask her how or she is! | :17:11. | :17:17. | |
What was it like watching your grandma? It was great. I am very | :17:17. | :17:27. | |
:17:27. | :17:33. | ||
proud. I cannot resist, can I? From Berwick it worked its way down and | :17:33. | :17:40. | |
we will be following the same trail. Tomorrow I will be on the Quayside. | :17:40. | :17:50. | |
Back to the studio. You were there, weren't you? | :17:50. | :17:59. | |
I was. It was a fantastic sight. Time for the sport. | :17:59. | :18:02. | |
9,000 swimmers are getting ready to zip up their wetsuits for the | :18:02. | :18:05. | |
country's biggest open water swim this weekend. The first heats in | :18:05. | :18:08. | |
the Great North Swim on Windermere are tomorrow over distances ranging | :18:08. | :18:11. | |
from half a mile to just over three. Elite men and women are competing | :18:11. | :18:13. | |
on Saturday, including Commonwealth champion Robbie Renwick from | :18:13. | :18:20. | |
Scotland and Germany's Christian Reichert, ranked 6th in the world. | :18:20. | :18:22. | |
South Shields Paralympic gold medallist Josef Craig will start | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
them off. Some of the heats were cancelled last year because of | :18:25. | :18:28. | |
stormy weather and while that's not on the cards this time, after the | :18:28. | :18:34. | |
coldest Spring in 50 years the lake will be very chilly. | :18:34. | :18:36. | |
For three young swimmers from Newcastle the event will have | :18:36. | :18:42. | |
special significance, as Hannah Bayman's been finding out. | :18:42. | :18:45. | |
Matthew, Rebecca and Amy taking a dip before this weekend's Great | :18:45. | :18:50. | |
North Swim. For them the event will be particularly poignant. | :18:50. | :18:54. | |
Matthew is swimming in memory of Lee Halpin. The 26-year-old | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
journalist died while sleeping rough in Newcastle to make a | :18:57. | :18:59. | |
documentary about homelessness, on a night in April when temperatures | :18:59. | :19:09. | |
:19:09. | :19:12. | ||
fell to minus two. It struck a chord with me personally. I am | :19:12. | :19:17. | |
still in awe of what he was doing. It was brave and courageous. That | :19:17. | :19:21. | |
was the kind of person he was. The money will go towards the | :19:21. | :19:28. | |
documentary he was making and it will also go to a charity that he | :19:28. | :19:32. | |
supported. Rebecca and Amy are fundraising for | :19:32. | :19:34. | |
Glencoe Mountain Rescue in tribute to their university friends Una | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
Finnegan, 25, and Rachel Majumdar, 29 - doctors who both died in an | :19:37. | :19:46. | |
avalanche on Glencoe in January. They were such inspiring people and | :19:46. | :19:51. | |
bullied us into doing all sorts of events. It felt right to do | :19:51. | :19:56. | |
something and challenge ourselves. In the pool here the temperature is | :19:56. | :19:59. | |
about 30 Celsius. In Windermere this weekend that's likely to be | :19:59. | :20:05. | |
nearer 14 near the surface, colder below. I think it will have the or | :20:06. | :20:11. | |
freezing. I have done some preparation in a lake, but I will | :20:11. | :20:17. | |
prepare with socks, gloss and a wet suit. | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
However cold this weekend's swim, these three friends will be carried | :20:20. | :20:24. | |
to the finish line by memories of loved ones they have lost. | :20:24. | :20:26. | |
Australia batsman David Warner has been suspended until the first | :20:26. | :20:29. | |
Ashes Test match for punching Yorkshire and England player Joe | :20:29. | :20:33. | |
Root in a bar in Birmingham at the weekend. | :20:34. | :20:36. | |
Warner, who played Twenty20 cricket for Durham in 2009, was also fined | :20:37. | :20:41. | |
�7,000 for breaching the code of behaviour. It means he'll miss the | :20:41. | :20:48. | |
remainder of the Champions Trophy. The incident doesn't seem to have | :20:49. | :20:52. | |
affected Root, who rode his luck at times but hit an impressive 68 in | :20:52. | :20:56. | |
the competition against Sri Lanka this afternoon at the Oval. | :20:56. | :20:59. | |
At Lords, four wickets apiece for Liam Plunkett and Steve Patterson | :20:59. | :21:05. | |
meant Middlesex had to follow on after being bowled out 175. | :21:05. | :21:07. | |
And at Chester-le-Street, four wickets from Ben Stokes helped | :21:07. | :21:17. | |

Durham dismiss reigning champions Finally, congratulations to | :21:22. | :21:24. | |
Northern Thunder, the Powerchair football team from the Percy Hedley | :21:24. | :21:29. | |
Academy on North Tyneside. The boys who we featured on Look North a few | :21:29. | :21:32. | |
weeks ago have won both the WFA National Premier League and the | :21:32. | :21:35. | |
National Cup. They're off to the European Powerchair Championships | :21:35. | :21:40. | |
in France later this month. And well done to Hartlepool's new | :21:40. | :21:43. | |
management team of Colin Cooper and Craig Hignett, who made it to the | :21:43. | :21:46. | |
summit of Mount Kilimanjaro this morning to raise funds for | :21:46. | :21:54. | |
children's charities. Well done to them both. A fantastic | :21:54. | :22:04. | |
:22:04. | :22:11. | ||
effort. Now it is time for the weather. | :22:11. | :22:16. | |
Our weather dog has featured in our pictures several times. She has | :22:16. | :22:21. | |
appeared with her owner, so we thought they might both like to do | :22:21. | :22:31. | |
:22:31. | :22:41. | ||
the honours this time around. We have had hurt since she was two | :22:41. | :22:51. | |
:22:51. | :22:51. | ||
weeks old. She trains quite well. She is done here all day doing | :22:51. | :22:56. | |
tricks and entertaining people. She has also got into surfing. She | :22:56. | :23:02. | |
followed me into the sea, so we put her on a board and she loves it. | :23:02. | :23:10. | |
She has got her own serve board and her life jacket. Despite the | :23:10. | :23:20. | |
:23:20. | :23:21. | ||
onshore wind, they were both happy to take to the waves. | :23:21. | :23:31. | |
:23:31. | :23:36. | ||
Make is becoming a celebrity. She has her O Facebook page -- her own | :23:36. | :23:46. | |
:23:46. | :23:52. | ||
Facebook page. They had a difficult time choosing the best picture. | :23:52. | :24:02. | |
:24:02. | :24:08. | ||
There were a lot of dull photos and also pictures from Saltburn. There | :24:08. | :24:14. | |
was also this fantastic shot, which is the runner up. It caught a bit | :24:14. | :24:22. | |
of a rainbow that was coming through. So, or great runners up, | :24:22. | :24:32. | |
:24:32. | :24:35. | ||
but which picture war be the main one? This has to be the winner. I | :24:35. | :24:41. | |
often go their surfing. Congratulations from both of us. | :24:41. | :24:51. | |
:24:51. | :24:58. | ||
Well done to them both, and congratulations to the winner of | :24:58. | :25:07. | |
the best picture. It's a spectacular shot. | :25:07. | :25:12. | |
Tomorrow, the winds will be south- westerly. It will keep things | :25:12. | :25:17. | |
unsettled. Today we had the tail end of this weather system that | :25:17. | :25:24. | |
brought some will downpours. It is beginning to clear away. Some high | :25:24. | :25:29. | |
pressure building in behind it, keeping things quiet overnight. Any | :25:29. | :25:37. | |
showers should die away. Most of us will have a dry night. It will feel | :25:37. | :25:42. | |
fresher and the winds will be liked. Temperatures will drop to single | :25:42. | :25:51. | |

afternoon. Not a lot of brightness through the afternoon. Temperatures | :26:07. | :26:16. | |
will peak at around 17 or 18 Celsius. Add in a brisk wind and | :26:17. | :26:25. | |
the rain and it might not feel any warmer than it was today. The | :26:25. | :26:30. | |
weather front will career, but the tail of it will bring wet and windy | :26:30. | :26:38. | |
weather. Sunday it will be the best day, weather Wise. If you are out | :26:38. | :26:48. | |
:26:48. | :26:48. | ||
