Good evening. On Look North tonight: A husband tells of his

:00:07.:00:11.

devastation at the loss of his wife. An inquest recalls the tragedy of

:00:11.:00:16.

the day a barbecue turned into a deadly campsite killer.

:00:16.:00:19.

Also tonight, vehicle identity theft. We meet the man facing

:00:19.:00:24.

dozens of fines from all over the country after his car number plate

:00:24.:00:28.

was cloned. And the Blades jump into an

:00:28.:00:32.

automatic promotion place after an emphatic win in League One.

:00:32.:00:36.

A warning that gales could return for a short time late Ayrtonite.

:00:36.:00:44.

All the very latest coming up shortly.

:00:44.:00:54.
:00:54.:00:56.

A 68-year-old man's been fined more than �1300 and banned from driving

:00:56.:01:02.

for nine months after being clocked at 147mph in nonk Yorkshire. Owen

:01:02.:01:07.

swift was doing more than double the speed limit on the Malton

:01:07.:01:11.

bypass. We have been following the case at Scarborough Magistrates

:01:11.:01:20.

Court. Owen swift was driving home on the

:01:20.:01:26.

Malton bypass when he was caught by police with a laser police gun

:01:26.:01:30.

doing 147mph. Now, the 68-year-old, who is a company director, was in

:01:30.:01:36.

his Jaguar XKR at the time, a car he told the court today he'd bought

:01:36.:01:42.

for �81,000 just three months earlier. -- earlier. When police

:01:42.:01:45.

stopped him, he said to them "that's it, you are going to crease

:01:45.:01:49.

me, you could have just given me a telling off at my age, it's my

:01:49.:01:53.

livelihood". In court today though, Swift said he was innocent, said

:01:53.:01:57.

police stopped the wrong car, the magistrates didn't believe him and

:01:57.:02:02.

disqualified him from driving for nine months and ordered him to pay

:02:02.:02:08.

more than �1300. Swift was still insisting he was innocent when I

:02:08.:02:13.

caught up with him. The magistrates have listened to nothing, they

:02:13.:02:17.

haven't listened to the evidence. They just believe two policemen who

:02:17.:02:21.

were in, well, they've no evidence. So you are saying that car wasn't

:02:21.:02:25.

you? Yes, I am saying that car wasn't me. Were you not speeding?

:02:25.:02:29.

No, I wasn't there. The magistrates said they accepted the evidence of

:02:29.:02:32.

police, they were sure the correct car had been stopped. Sergeant

:02:32.:02:37.

Clayton was the man who pulled Swift over and he spoke to me after

:02:37.:02:41.

the verdict. This particular evening, the

:02:41.:02:46.

weather was fine, road conditions were light, 147mph, there was only

:02:46.:02:50.

one safe place for that and that is at a racetrack. The national roads

:02:50.:02:54.

we provide are not safe. If something went wrong at that time,

:02:54.:03:00.

I would have been dealing with Mr Swift's family in a different way

:03:00.:03:04.

than I am now. If something went wrong at 147mph, I'm not saying

:03:04.:03:08.

that he would have been killed, but he surely wouldn't have had much of

:03:08.:03:12.

a chance. The magistrates said in court today

:03:12.:03:18.

that in 30 years on the bench, 147mph is the highest speed he'd

:03:18.:03:20.

ever experienced. Mr Swift meanwhile says he won't be fighting

:03:20.:03:25.

the verdict, he told me it's just a ban, that's life, he's now off to

:03:25.:03:35.
:03:35.:03:36.

live in Spain. A father of two was describing the moment his wife was

:03:36.:03:40.

poisoned by carbon dioxide. He took his family on a trip to North Wales.

:03:40.:03:44.

A barbecue they cooked their evening meal on killed his wife as

:03:44.:03:50.

she slept. Tom Ingall has been at the inquest today and is live in

:03:50.:03:55.

Khan ah van. What to we know -- Caernarfon. I don't think I've ever

:03:55.:03:58.

heard as vivid a description as carbon dioxide poisoning as I have

:03:58.:04:03.

done in court today. Ben Screen in Chesterfield had taken his family

:04:03.:04:06.

and wife on holiday. He described in court waking up in the night

:04:06.:04:10.

almost unable to move, trying to stand, feeling dizzy, falling over,

:04:10.:04:16.

hitting his head. He said he woke up later to find he'd been sick and

:04:16.:04:19.

he had to crawl to the outside of the tent to raise the alarm. He

:04:19.:04:23.

survived the poisoning, so did his seven-year-old and four-year-old,

:04:23.:04:28.

but sadly it killed his wife. Today was her inquest.

:04:28.:04:32.

A family camping holiday which turned to tragedy. Tonight, as a

:04:32.:04:37.

coroner recorded a verdict of accidental death on 34-year-old

:04:37.:04:40.

Tracey Screen, her husband paid tribute.

:04:40.:04:47.

I would like to thank all the people in these difficult times,

:04:47.:04:52.

from the family, the support we've needed. All the people that knew

:04:53.:04:56.

Tracey will have a big hole in their lives that will never be

:04:56.:05:04.

filled. We love her. The court close to the campsite

:05:04.:05:08.

heard from Mr Screen. After enjoying a barbecue, the family

:05:08.:05:12.

brought the cooker inside their tent. Overnight, it slowly poisoned

:05:12.:05:17.

them. The next morning, Ben Screen crawled outside for help, his cries

:05:17.:05:21.

heard by a fellow camper. Heard some shouting again. As I walked up

:05:21.:05:25.

to the tent, we thought it was coming from there, he was trying to

:05:25.:05:33.

get out. So I unzipped it and seen inside, two little kids. We got the

:05:33.:05:40.

little kids out. We called the emergency services. A barbecue in a

:05:40.:05:45.

cooling down process is something that happens with a charcoal

:05:45.:05:50.

barbecue every time you finish using it. As the cooling down

:05:50.:05:52.

continues, the carbon dioxide that's given off increases. That

:05:52.:05:55.

would have been a particular problem in this confined space

:05:55.:06:00.

where there was very little air circulating around? Absolutely, yes,

:06:00.:06:05.

Sir. The coroner said Mrs Screen was yet another victim of the

:06:05.:06:08.

silent odourless killer, carbon dioxide. He said everyone should be

:06:08.:06:13.

aware of its dangers and its fatal consequences.

:06:13.:06:16.

The public authority's safety message tonight is, with a barbecue,

:06:16.:06:20.

it isn't just the fire that's a danger, just like a gas heater or

:06:20.:06:24.

light, you need to consider the risk of carbon dioxide. Safety

:06:24.:06:27.

leaflets are available, the authorities say pick one up,

:06:27.:06:31.

understand the dangers before you go on holiday.

:06:31.:06:38.

Thank you. Very upsetting. This story isn't unique sadly. Last July,

:06:38.:06:42.

30-year-old Hazel from Slaithwaite died from carbon dioxide while she

:06:42.:06:46.

and her partner were camping. They pulled the barbecue inside the tent

:06:46.:06:51.

after it went out. Hazel's partner Roland is with us now. You are a

:06:51.:06:53.

forensic scientist and you are working on something to try to make

:06:53.:06:58.

sure this doesn't Han again aren't you? Absolutely. Apart from public

:06:58.:07:03.

awareness, we'd like to conduct a two-year experiment, the first

:07:03.:07:08.

phase will be a laboratory-based experiment where we investigate the

:07:08.:07:12.

precise nature of carbon dioxide and how it comes off commercially

:07:12.:07:15.

available charcoal and with different accelerants. Then in the

:07:15.:07:19.

second phase, we want to bring what we've learned from the laboratory

:07:19.:07:24.

experiments to the real world where we will conduct experiments in real

:07:24.:07:34.

tents and see how long carbon dioxide is around and try to find a

:07:34.:07:39.

solution for it. How can you make a tent carbon dioxide safe? We are

:07:39.:07:44.

hoping for a modification of the way tents are produced, so there

:07:44.:07:47.

may be some ventilation systems that can be cheaply and easily put

:07:47.:07:52.

in by the tent manufacturers. There may be small alarm units that can

:07:52.:07:58.

be rented out from the campsites or potentially bought in and out of

:07:58.:08:01.

shops. There may be different fabrics that change colour when

:08:01.:08:03.

there's carbon dioxide around, but of course that would only alert

:08:03.:08:07.

campers when they are awake. That brought back terrible memories for

:08:07.:08:10.

you because you passed out as well didn't you overnight before you

:08:10.:08:15.

lost your wife? That's right. I was poisoned as well, sleeping right

:08:15.:08:20.

next to Hazel. Somehow, and we don't know why precisely, I

:08:20.:08:25.

survived, but during the night I had somehow got up halfway and had

:08:25.:08:29.

fallen on to my right arm which caused me a great injury, but well,

:08:29.:08:33.

I'm still alive and Hazel isn't. Thank you, I hope your research

:08:33.:08:40.

bears fruit as well. Thank you. Later on, Kell's latest opponent is

:08:40.:08:46.

announced. Book's next encounter will be a War of the Roses clash.

:08:46.:08:48.

-- brook. Also tonight, have you ever been

:08:48.:08:51.

sent a parking fine from somewhere you have never been to? How about a

:08:51.:08:55.

speeding ticket even though your car was off the road? If so, you

:08:55.:08:59.

may have become the latest victim of car cloning.

:09:00.:09:04.

This is all about different cars having the same number plate. You

:09:04.:09:07.

get your number plate stolen and someone else uses it. Because the

:09:07.:09:12.

plate is registered to you, you're the one who receives the fines.

:09:12.:09:16.

It's much more common than you think. Last year, the AA said there

:09:16.:09:19.

had been 40,000 cases of number plate theft. That's more than

:09:20.:09:24.

doubled in the past five years. In a moment, we'll talk to a transport

:09:24.:09:28.

expert about what you can do if it happens to you, but first, we have

:09:28.:09:32.

been talking to one man who's received almost 30 parking fines

:09:32.:09:38.

from places he's never even been. Since last summer, the fines have

:09:38.:09:42.

been dropping through this man's letterbox at the rate of one a week.

:09:42.:09:47.

They are for offences he says he hasn't committed and places he's

:09:47.:09:52.

never been to. It became clear to him that his car number plate had

:09:52.:09:55.

been cloned. I think in one particular week we had nearly six,

:09:55.:10:00.

followed up by parking notices for mainly places in the south of the

:10:00.:10:06.

country that we hadn't visited. London, Plymouth, Swindon. Places

:10:06.:10:12.

that were definitely not on either mine or my wife's itinerary. Altaf

:10:12.:10:16.

spent many hours trying to prove his innocence and appealing against

:10:16.:10:19.

the fines. The process was made more difficult because the offences

:10:19.:10:24.

were dealt with by different police forces, but now his local MP is

:10:24.:10:34.

calling for big changes. People get fines, they get threatening letters

:10:34.:10:37.

and it can affect their insurance. It's a serious matter and the

:10:37.:10:40.

criminals know the police don't take it seriously enough. There are

:10:40.:10:44.

thought to be around 10,000 cloned cars on the roads in the UK, one of

:10:44.:10:47.

the most common ways to steal the identity of a vehicle is to

:10:47.:10:52.

physically remove the plates from one car and then attach them to

:10:52.:10:56.

another vehicle that's identical in the model, make and colour.

:10:56.:11:01.

Garages like this one in Leeds have to register with the DVLA to make

:11:01.:11:04.

number plates and could lose their licence if they are found to be

:11:04.:11:08.

making fakes, but criminals also use replicas which they can get

:11:08.:11:12.

over the Internet with no proof of identity. Altaf hasn't had a fine

:11:12.:11:17.

since Christmas, so he's hoping his registration number is no longer

:11:17.:11:20.

being used. But there are still thousands of other innocent car

:11:20.:11:27.

owners being accused of crimes they didn't commit. We were talking

:11:27.:11:31.

about this in the office, I think I was the only person who had never

:11:31.:11:37.

heard of it. Trment experiment Paul fir man is here to tell us it's

:11:37.:11:47.
:11:47.:11:49.

quite common. -- experiment Paul Firman joins us now. If anyone

:11:49.:11:54.

hasn't been fined or caught, you would never know? Until you get

:11:54.:11:57.

unexpectedly a fine or fee through the door, you don't know your car's

:11:57.:12:03.

even been cloned in this way, so it's comes as a massive shock to

:12:03.:12:07.

people. What is worrying is that if this happens down south and, we are

:12:07.:12:10.

asking a local police force to cover it, they are not going to be

:12:10.:12:15.

interested are they, they are going to pass it on to Sussex or whenever

:12:15.:12:19.

it's handicapped, it may be difficult to prove your innocence?

:12:19.:12:25.

And you could be in the same area where the car was cloned and it

:12:25.:12:29.

gets difficult to prove. How is it done? The thieves target a car

:12:29.:12:33.

which is the identical make, model and colour to your one... So they

:12:34.:12:38.

might come up to Yorkshire looking for a black Volvo? Possibly, may

:12:38.:12:42.

might even find you on the Internet, car salesmen and such like, take a

:12:42.:12:46.

clone of a car which they've already got in London and it can be

:12:46.:12:52.

done that easily. What can we do to stop this from happening? What

:12:52.:12:56.

about putting a tracker in, that would prove where we were? Yes, a

:12:56.:13:00.

tracker would certainly help, also maybe if you are aware that you've

:13:00.:13:03.

received a fine that you didn't actually incur, the best thing to

:13:03.:13:07.

do is get as much evidence as you can, perhaps keep receipts from

:13:07.:13:11.

petrol stations you visited, maybe qualification from neighbours that

:13:11.:13:15.

you were at home on a certain date or time, possibly even photograph

:13:15.:13:21.

your car in your garage. Hang on a minute. It's a criminal offence. If

:13:21.:13:25.

a lots of the police that we have been talking to have been saying

:13:25.:13:29.

until something serious happens, there's nothing really we can do,

:13:29.:13:33.

but, you know, I'd hate to think my car number could potentially in the

:13:33.:13:37.

future be used for a robbery or something? Yes, there are steps you

:13:37.:13:42.

can take. The best thing to do is try and make sure that your

:13:42.:13:44.

registration plate is notified as soon as possible if you think you

:13:44.:13:48.

have been cloned. So advise the police, advise the driver of the

:13:48.:13:51.

vehicle licencing agency, also get in contact with the authority

:13:51.:13:54.

that's fined you and then get as much evidence as you possibly can.

:13:54.:13:58.

You might also be able to fit perhaps some detachable plates

:13:58.:14:02.

which break off if thieves try to steal the plates. They don't always

:14:02.:14:06.

have to steal the plates though, they can just take the number.

:14:06.:14:09.

the Internet? Yes, didn't realise it was a serious problem. Thank you

:14:09.:14:13.

very much. A rapist from Bradford who self-styled himself as a

:14:13.:14:16.

preacher of the word of God has been given a life sentence with a

:14:16.:14:21.

minimum 12 and a half years for a catalogue of violence going back 20

:14:21.:14:25.

years. Brian Jackson, a former TA soldier, was found guilty at

:14:25.:14:29.

Bradford Crown Court of rapes, attempted rape and wounding

:14:29.:14:33.

involving five women and a man. The judge said he was disturbed,

:14:33.:14:36.

violent and depraved. Little Chef has announced it's

:14:36.:14:40.

closing more than a third of its branches with the loss of up to 600

:14:40.:14:43.

jobs across the country. The Sheffield-based chain was taken

:14:43.:14:49.

over four years ago, the new owners say they inherited a number of

:14:49.:14:53.

unprofitable sites. 67 branches will close out of a total of 161.

:14:53.:14:57.

An investigation has begun into what started a huge fire at an

:14:57.:15:01.

industrial unit in Rotherham last night. Staff on the night shift at

:15:02.:15:05.

the Envelope Master warehouse off Aldwarke Lane managed to get out

:15:05.:15:10.

Saifly as paper, card, plastics and bubblewrap caught light. 6069

:15:10.:15:18.

firefighters worked to stop it spreading to nearby premises.

:15:18.:15:26.

Plans for a Tesco store in Holmfirth has been given the go

:15:26.:15:33.

ahead, but hundreds don't agree. Hundreds attended a meeting to hear

:15:33.:15:40.

about the plans. It withdrew its plans in 2009 but has a replacement

:15:41.:15:46.

scheme. When Tesco announces plans for a new store, it often faces

:15:46.:15:49.

opposition. At a meeting in Holmfirth last

:15:49.:15:54.

night, there was some opposition, but also support for a new

:15:54.:15:59.

supermarket. We feel that Holmfirth needs

:15:59.:16:04.

another larger supermarket. It's the second time Tesco have tried to

:16:04.:16:09.

build in Holmfirth. They withdrew plans two years ago and are now

:16:09.:16:12.

hoping their slightly smaller proposal will be backed by

:16:12.:16:15.

residents. If we have a store within Holmfirth, that means people

:16:15.:16:19.

don't have to travel quite so far and it increases the opportunities

:16:19.:16:24.

they have to vuz it the town centre. Tesco's store though won't be in

:16:24.:16:29.

Holmfirth town centre, it will be a mile away up a steep hill -- visit

:16:29.:16:34.

the town centre. Small retailers fear people will park at Tesco and

:16:34.:16:38.

turn their backs on Holmfirth. There is a planned mock closure of

:16:38.:16:43.

shops planned to show what could happen, something that was born in

:16:43.:16:49.

Barnoldswick where retailers are fighting a Tesco application there.

:16:49.:16:54.

I'm in the same position as Mary Portas, or opinion, that shops

:16:54.:17:00.

should be in towns and when you take them out tf the towns, you

:17:00.:17:06.

damage the town centre. Many fear that Tesco is too dominant but

:17:06.:17:15.

people, some of them want a large supermarket.

:17:15.:17:21.

Tying the knot abroad. The couple travelling thousands of miles away

:17:21.:17:30.

to get married in their African village. I enjoyed all the girls

:17:30.:17:37.

from Sheffield United last night, - - all the goals. Very well taken?

:17:37.:17:41.

certain balance. A lot of Blades fans will be filled with confidence.

:17:41.:17:46.

The Blades in their case last night beat Yeovil by 4-0. The question is,

:17:46.:17:50.

how long will their tenure in that second spot last? These days, at

:17:50.:17:55.

the top of that league, the answer always seems to be, for the time

:17:55.:17:58.

being. Four goals scored, none conceded

:17:58.:18:03.

and plenty of other reasons to be cheerful for Sheffield United.

:18:03.:18:07.

Hardly threatened all night at Bramall Lane, the Blades cut loose

:18:07.:18:12.

at the other end with two goals in each half. First, from Richard

:18:12.:18:16.

Cresswell, and then an even sweeter strike from Michael Doyle, a fine

:18:16.:18:19.

way to notch his first ever Blades goal.

:18:19.:18:27.

2-0 United led at half time. The second half was the Lee Williamson

:18:27.:18:32.

show. Two aggressive finishes from him made for a 4-0 victory. United

:18:32.:18:36.

take the second automatic promotion place again... For the time being.

:18:36.:18:40.

That, you suspect, is how it will be for the rest of the season.

:18:40.:18:43.

Every time any of Sheffield United, Sheffield Wednesday or Huddersfield

:18:43.:18:48.

Town play, it will be a chance to change the picture at the top of

:18:48.:18:52.

League One and thumb your nose at the neighbours. Or maybe the secret

:18:52.:18:55.

is for the Yorkshire contingent to gang up together on leaders

:18:55.:19:00.

Charlton. That way, we could be seeing all three climb out of

:19:00.:19:03.

League One at last. Great? Somehow I can't see

:19:03.:19:05.

Sheffield Wednesday and United and Huddersfield Town joining forces

:19:05.:19:11.

but it's a nice idea. They might stay there and two automatic spots?

:19:11.:19:15.

Exactly, but the unthinkable thing is, if Charlton are going to take

:19:15.:19:19.

one of the automatic spots, one of Wednesday United or Huddersfield

:19:19.:19:23.

will not be promoted. It's unthinkable. I can't believe we are

:19:23.:19:26.

talking about this. Let's move on with boxing instead.

:19:26.:19:29.

Kell Brook is set to realise a childhood dream later this year

:19:29.:19:33.

when he headlines a boxing show at the Sheffield Arena. He'll talk

:19:33.:19:36.

take on the former European champion Matthew Hatton in what

:19:36.:19:42.

will be a high profile war of the roses battle taking place on March

:19:48.:19:53.

The two top ranked Britons came head-to-head today to announce the

:19:53.:20:00.

biggest domestic fight of the year. Billed as a war of the roses, it

:20:00.:20:04.

will decide who will come out on top in the Battle of Style, grit

:20:04.:20:09.

and determination and confirm who really is Britain's number one

:20:09.:20:15.

welterweight. They are going to bring the best out in me. It's a

:20:15.:20:22.

tough fight. Health and Safety never been stopped. Matthew

:20:22.:20:26.

Hatton's fought in Sheffield fuef times already during his career --

:20:26.:20:30.

five times in his career and is not phased by the prospect of facing

:20:30.:20:35.

Kell in what will be Hatton's 50th professional fight. I boxed on the

:20:35.:20:41.

bill when Ricky defended his title so I've boxed here before. This is

:20:41.:20:45.

two of the best welterweights fighting, so there's a massive

:20:45.:20:48.

incentive there and local pride at stake. Kell's team are confident a

:20:48.:20:53.

win in March will force the world's champions, and more importantly,

:20:53.:20:58.

the boxing authorities, to accept Brook is deserving of a world title

shot. This afternoon, it felt as if every

:21:05.:21:10.

single Rugby Union fan in the country had their eyes fixed on

:21:10.:21:14.

Yorkshire and West Park Leeds's clubhouse. Why? Because that is

:21:14.:21:17.

where Stuart Lancaster, the man in charge of England for the time

:21:17.:21:20.

being, was announcing the squad for the Six Nations tournament. He's

:21:20.:21:23.

made 15 changes in all and our papers will be full of it in the

:21:23.:21:26.

morning, judging by the number of press who were there. But the

:21:26.:21:31.

question is, why has Stuart, who we know as the ex-Leeds Tykes coach,

:21:31.:21:34.

decided on an England training camp here in Yorkshire?

:21:34.:21:38.

I want to put my own stamp on things. It was a northern thing I

:21:38.:21:42.

wanted to do, there is an element of humbleness. People are grounded

:21:42.:21:46.

in the north aren't they, roll their sleeves up and get on with it.

:21:46.:21:49.

That was the message from the World Cup. I felt that we'd gotten off

:21:49.:21:55.

track a bit in terms of values. So up north was important. I wanted to

:21:55.:21:58.

find a place with good facilities and accommodation. A whole variety

:21:58.:22:02.

of reasons. When I scoured the north and asked around with the

:22:02.:22:06.

coaches, they came back to us with Leeds which ironically is down the

:22:06.:22:09.

road. Short commute for him then but he's

:22:09.:22:17.

very proud to be able the use the facilities he knows very well.

:22:17.:22:21.

might stay England coach if he has a good tournament. Tying the knot

:22:21.:22:25.

is never easy and planning your wedding can be stressful. It's so

:22:25.:22:28.

long since mine, I can hardly remember. Imagine who what it must

:22:28.:22:31.

be like trying to organise your big day when you are getting hitched

:22:31.:22:36.

thousands of miles away in a conditionian town. That's what two

:22:36.:22:42.

charity workers from pont frat wanted to do. David Hoggart and

:22:43.:22:52.
:22:53.:22:53.

Sharon Kerr set off tomorrow. -- Pontefract.

:22:53.:22:57.

Meet David and Sharon, all set for their wedding in Kenya next week.

:22:57.:23:03.

It's been a long nine years... yeah... And these are some of the

:23:03.:23:06.

faces who'll be with them as guests on their big day. They're children

:23:07.:23:13.

at the school David and Sharon's charity shop pays for. We went out

:23:13.:23:16.

for a holiday but got more involved and now it's our life to help the

:23:16.:23:20.

churn and the people out there. These are all the bridesmaid

:23:20.:23:23.

dresses which we are talking. Because all the children are going

:23:23.:23:27.

to take part in the wedding? They are, yes, they'll think it's

:23:27.:23:30.

fantastic, the boys, girls and they'll think it's brilliant. This

:23:31.:23:35.

time next week, it will be full on because this will be us wedding day,

:23:35.:23:38.

next Wednesday. Planning their wedding has been at the back of

:23:38.:23:42.

their minds after they were targeted by vandals a few weeks ago.

:23:42.:23:46.

Our van, the Wednesday before Christmas, got set on fire. That's

:23:46.:23:51.

what we use for pick-ups and deliveries. It just... Killed us a

:23:51.:23:54.

little bit. Without a van, we are stuck now.

:23:54.:23:58.

Not to be beaten, David and Sharon are determined to have a good time

:23:58.:24:02.

and enjoy the wedding they've always dreamt of. They were

:24:02.:24:06.

organising it over there for us. We hadn't heard from them and we heard

:24:06.:24:10.

yesterday that everything's been organised and I hope it goes right,

:24:10.:24:16.

which it should do. You look like you are filling up? Every time I

:24:16.:24:20.

talk about Kenya I fill up. Everything they take out with them

:24:20.:24:23.

to Kenya goes in this red bag and there's always great excitement

:24:23.:24:27.

when it arrives. One thing David will not get to see until next week.

:24:27.:24:32.

I want to see the dress? It's at the bridal shop in Wakefield.

:24:32.:24:36.

are the only one who has seen it so far? With my mum and sister. With

:24:36.:24:40.

them not being there on the special day, they wanted to see me and my

:24:40.:24:45.

dad hasn't seen it yet but my mum's took a picture to show him on the

:24:45.:24:49.

day. The happy couple have promised to take some pictures for us too so

:24:49.:24:53.

we can all see how they got on in a few weeks' time.

:24:53.:24:58.

We wish them well. A really lovely, lovely story. I gather that you

:24:58.:25:01.

have been inundated with spring have been inundated with spring

:25:01.:25:03.

flowers? Yes and complaints about you

:25:03.:25:08.

mocking that daffodil in Wakefield. The host of golden daffodil.

one daffodil! We have had loads more. Four actually. I'll she you

and tonight, patchy outbreaks of rain pushing further eastwards, but

:26:48.:26:59.

at least it's frost free. Very Very windy first thing with patchy

skies brighten through the morning and the afternoon is considerably

:27:08.:27:12.

less windy and sunny as well. Lovely on Thursday afternoon as the
