:00:00. > :00:10.Good evening. Welcome to NorthWest Tonight, with Graham Liver and

:00:11. > :00:13.Annabel Tiffin. Our top story: Warnings about the party drug Geebs,

:00:14. > :00:23.as three students collapse in Liverpool. Just mixing Geebs after a

:00:24. > :00:27.couple of drinks can lead to death and their keys `` and there are

:00:28. > :00:30.cases every year. It brings the total taken to

:00:31. > :00:40.hospital to six. Also in the programme: Spain Manco

:00:41. > :00:43.is in Manchester, but can Barca mess up their hopes?

:00:44. > :00:45.The 60`foot problem on a Liverpool house.

:00:46. > :00:47.And meet Roger the train`fare dodger. He was lost, but could there

:00:48. > :01:02.be a new lead? It is taken as a party drug and it

:01:03. > :01:05.is known as Geebs. In reality, it is little more than an industrial

:01:06. > :01:09.cleaner that can kill. Over the last three days, a total of six people

:01:10. > :01:12.have now ended up in hospital on Merseyside, after it is believed

:01:13. > :01:14.they used the substance. Tonight, Merseyside Police are

:01:15. > :01:18.warning students and party goers about the dangers posed by the

:01:19. > :01:23.chemical. They say it could be lethal, even in small doses. This

:01:24. > :01:26.report, from Peter Marshall. It is colourless, it is odourless.

:01:27. > :01:29.Take so`called Geebs and you could be gambling with your life.

:01:30. > :01:32.Emergency services were called to this student accommodation at Hatton

:01:33. > :01:35.Garden, in Liverpool yesterday evening when two 20`year`old men and

:01:36. > :01:40.a 19`year`old were taken to hospital. On Sunday, three others,

:01:41. > :01:43.including a 16`year`old girl, were taken to Intensive Care at the Royal

:01:44. > :01:54.Livepool University Hospital after it is suspected they took the drug.

:01:55. > :01:58.We were very unfortunate that they got to hospital so quickly. And they

:01:59. > :02:04.were given the expert treatment they needed, so the key message to the

:02:05. > :02:10.educational community across Merseyside is, this is a dangerous

:02:11. > :02:14.substance. It is not meant for human consumption, it is illegal.

:02:15. > :02:16.All six casualties have now been discharged.

:02:17. > :02:20.Well, this is GBL, or Geebs, as it is better known. It is normally used

:02:21. > :02:24.to clean alloy car wheels, but it is also effective as a paint stripper

:02:25. > :02:27.and rust remover. It is an industrial solvent. It is illegal to

:02:28. > :02:30.sell it for human consumption, then it is deemed a class`C drug.

:02:31. > :02:33.Mixed with alcohol, even in small doses, it can cause unconsciousness,

:02:34. > :02:37.respiratory failure, coma and even death.

:02:38. > :02:43.21`year`old medical student Hester Stewart died after taking GBL with

:02:44. > :02:48.alcohol in April 2009. Her family campaigned successfully for it to

:02:49. > :02:56.become a class`C drug. They set up the Angelus Foundation to warn of

:02:57. > :03:02.the dangers. One small accident and just mixing GBL after a couple of

:03:03. > :03:07.drinks, not even when you are drunk, can lead to death and there are

:03:08. > :03:12.cases every year. Two people have been questioned in

:03:13. > :03:22.connection with the incident. Now, it is arguably the biggest

:03:23. > :03:25.match of the season so far. Manchester City take on Barcelona,

:03:26. > :03:27.one of the giants of world football, in the last 16 of the Champions

:03:28. > :03:31.League tonight. A sell`out crowd will be at the

:03:32. > :03:34.Etihad Stadium for the first`ever competitive game between the sides.

:03:35. > :03:37.Stuart Pollitt is there for us. And, Stuart, it is a symbolic meeting

:03:38. > :03:40.because of the path Manchester City have taken in the last few years to

:03:41. > :03:44.get here, isn't it? Yes, a path which leads all the way

:03:45. > :03:48.back to Spain and back to Barcelona. When Sheikh Mansour bought this club

:03:49. > :03:51.five and a half years ago, nights like this were his objective. That

:03:52. > :03:57.objective to compete with the best has seen Manchester City learning

:03:58. > :03:59.from the best. Barcelona. They have hired former Barca players, their

:04:00. > :04:03.former Chief Executive and Sporting Director, and emulated many of the

:04:04. > :04:07.models which have made the Catalan club the most

:04:08. > :04:16.feared in the world. A commitment to be part of the elite

:04:17. > :04:25.has meant the recruitment of personnel including... From

:04:26. > :04:30.Barcelona. 14 trophies in five years, including five Champions

:04:31. > :04:35.League titles followed. This former player and nonexecutive director can

:04:36. > :04:40.see a Barcelona blueprint at Manchester City. When you look to be

:04:41. > :04:45.the best comic you see what is the benchmark of being the best and

:04:46. > :04:48.Barcelona for the last five or longer years has been the benchmark

:04:49. > :04:57.for every four or club in Europe, possibly the world. `` darts club.

:04:58. > :05:01.You take the good parts of that There has been player recruitment

:05:02. > :05:05.and training facilities, expended by weighing clubs in Australia and New

:05:06. > :05:12.York to realise a global ambition. A commitment to home`grown players

:05:13. > :05:19.would be something most clubs would go along with, but they aim to have

:05:20. > :05:24.400 the best young players. This concentration on youth development

:05:25. > :05:32.worked for Barcelona. Messi is one example to have come from Barcelona

:05:33. > :05:38.`` the Academy. This fan from Singapore was mixing with Barcelona

:05:39. > :05:44.fans. City has influenced people in my country, a lot of fans. They can

:05:45. > :05:52.play as much, as well as Barcelona used to play. The kind of players by

:05:53. > :05:56.signing and the football they are playing. The FA Cup was their first

:05:57. > :06:03.trophy in 35 years, the league Trophy `` the league title followed

:06:04. > :06:08.and confirmation on the world stage will only follow from winning the

:06:09. > :06:11.Champions League title. The club has made progress towards winning the

:06:12. > :06:15.European cup by making it to the knockout stages for the first time.

:06:16. > :06:31.More in the build`up to this later. Thank you. A house in Liverpool has

:06:32. > :06:34.become an unlikely tourist attraction after a huge tree fell on

:06:35. > :06:37.it in last week's storms. Jim Brennan arrived home in Maghull to

:06:38. > :06:42.find the giant leylandii had destroyed his garage and crushed his

:06:43. > :06:45.car inside it. It has become quite a draw for visitors, who have been

:06:46. > :06:49.turning up to photograph the unusual sight. But it is a big headache for

:06:50. > :06:52.the tree's owner, as Naomi Cornwell has been finding out.

:06:53. > :06:55.It is hard to imagine in daylight, but when Jim Brennan arrived home in

:06:56. > :06:59.the dark last Wednesday, he didn't notice the 60`foot tree that had

:07:00. > :07:02.fallen on his house. Jim only realised something was wrong when he

:07:03. > :07:05.discovered the back door had been broken down by the Fire Brigade

:07:06. > :07:09.trying to check if he was trapped inside. For his neighbour Elsie the

:07:10. > :07:12.owner of the tree, it was a huge relief that he wasn't. I was plunged

:07:13. > :07:15.into darkness. I saw what had happened, which was an enormous

:07:16. > :07:23.shock. He is very stoic about it but I am so anxious about his property.

:07:24. > :07:26.Jim is still living in his house. He didn't want to speak on camera

:07:27. > :07:30.today, but considering what has happened to his garage and to the

:07:31. > :07:33.car inside, he is taking it in remarkably good spirits and told me

:07:34. > :07:36.he has always wanted a convertible. Meanwhile, his home has been

:07:37. > :07:42.attracting quite a lot of interest. Nature has taken over the world It

:07:43. > :07:48.is amazing, let's hope they get to the root of the problem!

:07:49. > :07:52.And Elsie says so far, no`one has been able to help her remove that

:07:53. > :07:58.problem. By cars draw `` are trapped on the drive and I cannot get out ``

:07:59. > :08:00.might cause. I have never been of the phone ringing the insurance

:08:01. > :08:07.companies, the water board, everybody, it has been that a

:08:08. > :08:11.nightmare. It is an entry `` it is an interesting feature. You could

:08:12. > :08:18.say that, but I would rather not have it, I would have to say.

:08:19. > :08:23.It is remarkable he did not notice the tree had fallen his house.

:08:24. > :08:37.The last thing you want is people outside taking photos.

:08:38. > :08:40.Exactly. Families of those killed in the Hillsborough Disaster have made

:08:41. > :08:42.a formal complaint to the Independent Police Complaints

:08:43. > :08:45.Commission over alleged police surveillance. 12 families have asked

:08:46. > :08:49.the IPCC to investigate claims they were monitored in the aftermath of

:08:50. > :08:52.the 1989 tragedy and, in some cases, had their phones tapped. They have

:08:53. > :08:55.also made a separate complaint about previous refusals by the police to

:08:56. > :08:58.comment on the issue. A petition signed by over 6,000 thousand Isle

:08:59. > :09:02.of Man residents calling for a so`called "toilet tax" to be

:09:03. > :09:10.scrapped has been handed over to the Manx government. The Water and

:09:11. > :09:13.Sewerage Authority has announced plans to introduce a ?50 charge for

:09:14. > :09:16.all households on mains sewerage from April. The charge follows a

:09:17. > :09:19.reduction in its revenue grant, but the public want the charge scrapped.

:09:20. > :09:22.We have had enough of this government and their stealth taxes.

:09:23. > :09:28.You have nothing for the rich and we keep getting hit. An old lady living

:09:29. > :09:32.in a small flat struggling with cots has to pay the same tax as a

:09:33. > :09:46.millionaire, how can that be right, how come up the modern? `` how can

:09:47. > :09:50.that be modern? Think of the First World War and you

:09:51. > :09:53.think of trenches, men, mud and barbed wire. But this was a World

:09:54. > :09:56.War and its impact stretched far beyond Flanders. The scale of the

:09:57. > :10:01.conflict changed lives forever here at home. A hundred years on from the

:10:02. > :10:04.war, the BBC in the North West will be taking a close look at how those

:10:05. > :10:08.lives were changed. Dianne Oxberry can tell us more about it. She is

:10:09. > :10:11.over the canal in the Imperial War Museum North. The evening. One of

:10:12. > :10:14.the things the museum does really is bringing home the human stories of

:10:15. > :10:16.conflict. Behind me is the gun that fired the first shot in World War I.

:10:17. > :10:22.This is significant. And behind that gun sat five men who all back at

:10:23. > :10:27.home and family, friends and communities. And tonight, we are

:10:28. > :10:30.launching coverage of the centenary of World War I am we are looking

:10:31. > :10:37.that the stories from the Home Front. The experience of those men

:10:38. > :10:43.had on those back at home so reporters from the Northwest have

:10:44. > :10:55.been scouring the area for the best of those stories and here is a

:10:56. > :11:03.taster. Within three weeks, 80 men had

:11:04. > :11:11.enlisted from this street. Out of 161 altogether. Harry gave every

:11:12. > :11:21.conscientious objector a fair hearing, he looked at each case on

:11:22. > :11:24.its own. He was good at questioning potential conscientious objectors to

:11:25. > :11:30.get to the bottom of whether they were conscientious objectors. He is

:11:31. > :11:41.a real legend in city Mark Webb which you could never put a face or

:11:42. > :11:46.understand the story `` `` in Liverpool. He was voted with the

:11:47. > :11:50.Beatles as one of the most recognisable people. The men who had

:11:51. > :11:59.not been drafted after the Somme were called up so the women manned

:12:00. > :12:03.the munitions factories. The worry was that the regular army was off to

:12:04. > :12:09.France and the territorials and reservists is would not far behind.

:12:10. > :12:17.So who would do the job of protecting this country? The answer

:12:18. > :12:22.was, the volunteer force. The stories will be fascinating and

:12:23. > :12:26.they want on your local registration and on the programme on Monday, and

:12:27. > :12:32.you will hear more in the coming months. We can talk to the director

:12:33. > :12:37.here. The museum have been very kind and you have a massive hive ``

:12:38. > :12:42.archive and you have the collaborating with us. The Imperial

:12:43. > :12:48.War Museum has been collecting material, photographs, documents,

:12:49. > :12:52.diaries, since 1917, since before the first World War finished. It was

:12:53. > :12:56.so important when they realised what a traumatic event the first World

:12:57. > :13:05.War I is, that they had to capture the memories. And that is what we

:13:06. > :13:07.have done and what we have here We have the material and through the

:13:08. > :13:15.BBC, we can make it widely available. It will be educational. I

:13:16. > :13:22.learnt about the Home Front in the second World War cobbler ``, but not

:13:23. > :13:28.so much World War I which was just as interesting. Through some of the

:13:29. > :13:32.research we did, we found that the first World War is mixed up with

:13:33. > :13:36.World War II. This is a great chance for people to understand the

:13:37. > :13:40.difference. I have heard stories through perhaps their parents or

:13:41. > :13:43.grandparents and great grandparents. And essentially,

:13:44. > :13:48.through those stories, they can connect with what really happened

:13:49. > :13:54.such as through this project with the BBC and the exhibition we have

:13:55. > :13:59.in the Imperial War Museum is `` in April. And the role of women in war.

:14:00. > :14:06.You talked about the five men that would have been behind this God who

:14:07. > :14:10.took their jobs? `` this God. The women worked in factories, munitions

:14:11. > :14:15.factories, sometimes very dangerous jobs. It will be fascinating and we

:14:16. > :14:19.are grateful for the cooperation of the museum. I will be back later

:14:20. > :14:35.with the weather forecast which is white I have my coat on inside! ``

:14:36. > :14:39.why. A year ago, doctors from Liverpool

:14:40. > :14:41.made their own bit of medical history by performing the first`ever

:14:42. > :14:45.kidney transplant in Gaza. They have been back several times

:14:46. > :14:48.since. But now medics from there are in Liverpool to discover how to go

:14:49. > :14:51.about setting up their own transplant programme. Our chief

:14:52. > :14:53.reporter, Dave Guest, has been to meet them.

:14:54. > :14:56.Nick Brickland is getting ready to go home after undergoing a kidney

:14:57. > :15:00.transplant at the Royal Liverpool Hospital. The kidney was donated by

:15:01. > :15:03.his wife Jill. It is a procedure which is relatively commonplace in

:15:04. > :15:07.this hospital. But for these medics, it is all very new. They are from

:15:08. > :15:12.Gaza, a place which has no transplant programme. We hope with

:15:13. > :15:21.this project we can take this knowledge with others to establish

:15:22. > :15:23.such a system. Surgeons from Liverpool carried out Gaza's

:15:24. > :15:26.first`ever kidney transplant operation just last year. They have

:15:27. > :15:27.been back several times since, carrying out eight successful

:15:28. > :15:30.operations. Mr Abdul Hammadis, Director of the

:15:31. > :15:36.Transplant Unit at the Royal Liverpool. He says it is time for

:15:37. > :15:42.Gaza to establish its own programme. They need a continuous programme.

:15:43. > :15:52.Having people from Gaza here for training will help to form the

:15:53. > :15:59.nucleus of the team. People here so friendly, kindly, they respect us,

:16:00. > :16:02.they give us so many things. The team will be here for another three

:16:03. > :16:07.weeks and they will go home when the big job begins, putting in place the

:16:08. > :16:14.resources necessary to put into bat is what they have learnt here. ``

:16:15. > :16:28.into Pratt is. Did he just perform that operation?

:16:29. > :16:31.I hope not! Now time to head back to the Etihad Stadium, ahead of the big

:16:32. > :16:33.game tonight between Manchester City and Barcelona.

:16:34. > :16:36.Stuart is there. And, Stuart, this is a milestone match for Manchester

:16:37. > :16:39.City, isn't it? A milestone because it is the first

:16:40. > :16:42.time City have reached the knockout stages. It is what the manager,

:16:43. > :16:46.Manuel Pellegrini, was brought here to achieve. But the main reason

:16:47. > :17:02.there is so much anticipation around this ground tonight is because these

:17:03. > :17:06.two teams mean one thing. Goals They have scored 228 between them

:17:07. > :17:09.already this season. In the months since the draw was made, that single

:17:10. > :17:12.fact is pretty much enough to keep everyone excited. Now, finally,

:17:13. > :17:15.Manchester City v Barcelona is no longer on the horizon.

:17:16. > :17:18.A romantic and iconic club, with the world's best player. They have been

:17:19. > :17:23.the dominant footballing force of the last decade. So no wonder

:17:24. > :17:34.Barca's fans are confident. Today is Barca day. One `` two. To Barcelona?

:17:35. > :17:40.All the way! Manchester City are a very good team but Barcelona this

:17:41. > :17:44.year is amazing. But City, too, have confidence

:17:45. > :17:46.though. They can match their opponents' firepower.

:17:47. > :17:58.This season, City have scored 1 7 goals. Barcelona 111. City lie third

:17:59. > :18:02.in the Premier League and still in with a chance of four trophies. Yaya

:18:03. > :18:09.Toure won the European Cup with Barca, and knows what it takes. We

:18:10. > :18:15.have to compete and be 100% because Barcelona is at the top level and if

:18:16. > :18:20.we want to be move on and be the top club in the world, we have to beat

:18:21. > :18:26.those teams. It is what I have been waiting for, we are having it! We

:18:27. > :18:32.have to score at least three goals to go over to Barcelona but I think

:18:33. > :18:36.we were winter night. `` we were winter night. `` we will win

:18:37. > :18:40.tonight. What does the City boss make of Jose

:18:41. > :18:46.Mourinho's claim that Barca are past their peak? It is a different team,

:18:47. > :18:53.it is not fair to compare. We can go tomorrow and show the world that we

:18:54. > :18:57.can still be the best. So the stage is set for one of the

:18:58. > :19:02.most eagerly awaited matches of the season so far.

:19:03. > :19:16.It is equally awaited for fans of Fleetwood town. But they have it all

:19:17. > :19:19.to do to reach a Wembley final. Graham Alexander's side travel to

:19:20. > :19:26.Chesterfield with a 3`1 deficit for the second leg of the Johnstone

:19:27. > :19:29.Paints Trophy Northern Area final. The Winter Olympics dream is over

:19:30. > :19:33.for Alsager's freestyle skier Rowan Cheshire. She has been withdrawn

:19:34. > :19:35.from the half pipe event on Thursday after suffering a serious crash in

:19:36. > :19:38.training The 18`year`old suffered concussion and spent a night in

:19:39. > :19:43.hospital under observation. Rowan says she is hugely disappointed And

:19:44. > :19:49.finally, the date has been announced for the funeral of Sir Tom Finney.

:19:50. > :19:53.It will be on Thursday 27th February at Preston Minister at one o'clock.

:19:54. > :20:00.I am sure he would have loved to have seen this game tonight,

:20:01. > :20:05.especially with Messi in the team, a man many people say is the

:20:06. > :20:09.equivalent of Sir Tom Finney. There is a sense among fans that

:20:10. > :20:13.Manchester City can get to Barcelona if they can just get the ball of

:20:14. > :20:25.them! Should be a game tonight. Now we

:20:26. > :20:28.come to the story of a Methodist Minister with a one`track mind.

:20:29. > :20:31.Malcolm Lorimer is a railway enthusiast who already has a small

:20:32. > :20:33.railway running around his church in Nantwich.

:20:34. > :20:37.Now he ia trying to persuade Network Rail to shunt a plan to demolish a

:20:38. > :20:40.disused signal box into the sidings. And as Mark Edwardson found,

:20:41. > :20:42.Reverend Lorimer wants the building transported across the town to his

:20:43. > :20:47.church. Nantwich Methodist Church, and its

:20:48. > :20:51.Minister. We are the only church in England with a permit and `` with a

:20:52. > :20:57.permanent miniature railway on. `` railway. A man with a mission, and

:20:58. > :21:01.his own giant train set. Next to The Reverend Malcolm Lorimer's track, a

:21:02. > :21:04.car park, and he wants to use it to save this. Nantwich Signal Box. 200

:21:05. > :21:09.years ago, Hillary was decommissioned and we do not use

:21:10. > :21:15.that any more here. Somebody said, let's keep it and they have, and why

:21:16. > :21:20.not? In 50 years, somebody will say, I am glad they kept the signal box.

:21:21. > :21:23.Built in 1948, the same year British Railways was born, now disused. A

:21:24. > :21:28.relic of the past. Due for demolition, it is a tight

:21:29. > :21:34.timetable for the Reverend Lorimer. We can get sponsorship, people to

:21:35. > :21:38.donate, the town council can help and of the grant`making bodies. We

:21:39. > :21:43.do believe in walking on water as a church! He is stoking support, with

:21:44. > :21:47.the help of former railway workers in Nantwich. It represents the best

:21:48. > :21:52.part of mechanical engineering we had which meant the ball could

:21:53. > :21:59.safely move trains around. To see something like this going is a

:22:00. > :22:05.shame. After 66 years, the signal reached the end of the line when

:22:06. > :22:08.control was transferred to Cardiff. Network rail have said alternative

:22:09. > :22:20.uses for the building have been considered at because it is so close

:22:21. > :22:25.to the railway line, it has to go. Now meet Roger. A very familiar name

:22:26. > :22:29.on this programme, but maybe not what you were expecting. This is

:22:30. > :22:31.Roger the Lurcher, who has been a very naughty boy.

:22:32. > :22:43.This morning, the furry fare dodger was off on an adventure. After

:22:44. > :22:46.unlocking the patio door, he took himself walkies and jumped on a

:22:47. > :22:49.train. 25 miles later, he was lost and a long way from home. Suzanne

:22:50. > :22:53.Hailey has more. Who doesn't enjoy a day out in the

:22:54. > :22:56.city? Roger here certainly does The platform staff said a dog was

:22:57. > :23:03.running loose so we had to bring him into making safe. `` to make him

:23:04. > :23:06.safe. Making himself at home with the Customer Service team at

:23:07. > :23:09.Manchester Victoria. He may not have made it beyond the station walls,

:23:10. > :23:16.but he is definitely making some new friends. He has been lying down

:23:17. > :23:24.quite a bit. I think he has taken to us here and he does not want to go

:23:25. > :23:29.home! Would be a good station dog, the staff have loved him and made a

:23:30. > :23:32.fuss of him. Arriving just before eight o'clock,

:23:33. > :23:36.Roger made an early start. His journey took him over twenty miles.

:23:37. > :23:38.It is believed he climbed aboard at Smithy Bridge, then travelled

:23:39. > :23:47.through Rochdale, Castleton, Mills Hill and Moston, before reaching his

:23:48. > :23:50.final destination. When it comes to usual passengers,

:23:51. > :23:54.this one really does take the biscuit. But there is one thing for

:23:55. > :23:59.sure, staff here have certainly got him well`trained! Really enjoying

:24:00. > :24:08.himself here. It would be sad for him to go. But when the warden

:24:09. > :24:19.arrives, the fun is over for this dog about town.

:24:20. > :24:26.Well, I'm pleased to say we do have a happy ending. But he is a little

:24:27. > :24:28.camera shy. Until he is ready, we are going to Diane, who is not

:24:29. > :24:37.camera shy! It does not surprise me because I

:24:38. > :24:44.met him and I gave him a warm welcome and he just looked at me. He

:24:45. > :24:48.looks to have had the longest day in the world, he looks really fed up so

:24:49. > :24:54.I am not surprised he is not an easy as Dick. We have not had a bad day.

:24:55. > :25:00.`` and use your stick. We talked about showers and because winds have

:25:01. > :25:08.Ian Wright, there is nothing to drive them through the region. ``

:25:09. > :25:14.light. Through this evening, you might catch a stray one and a break

:25:15. > :25:22.in the cloud cover. Down to around three Celsius. In towns and cities,

:25:23. > :25:27.towards the early hours, six, seven degrees, which is still good for the

:25:28. > :25:33.time of year. It felt mild today and it will again tomorrow. Tomorrow, a

:25:34. > :25:39.lot of cloud to start the day. A disappointing start. But it will

:25:40. > :25:44.brighten up. The morning is overcast and the winds are light. Into the

:25:45. > :25:50.afternoon, the cloud cover will break every now and then. An

:25:51. > :25:57.improvement from morning to afternoon is all we can hope for,

:25:58. > :26:00.and temperatures, nine, 10 degrees. Wednesday night into Thursday until

:26:01. > :26:07.lunchtime, wet and windy all over again.

:26:08. > :26:19.We had our lovely story about Roger and he has returned and is with us.

:26:20. > :26:21.But he is not called Roger. He was named Roger after Manchester Dogs

:26:22. > :26:29.Home who have been looking after him. His owner and is on her way. A

:26:30. > :26:38.neighbour spotted him on our news and recognised him so she is on her

:26:39. > :26:47.way. What an adventure! He has been on an adventure, certainly. He got

:26:48. > :26:57.on the train and has had a 25 mile journey into Manchester. The local

:26:58. > :27:02.train people phoned the local animal wardens and that's when he came into

:27:03. > :27:06.our care. We came up with a microchip and we can say we have

:27:07. > :27:13.managed to get hold of the owner. You said about the chip and that

:27:14. > :27:18.cuts down problems. It does help a lot if they have a microchip and the

:27:19. > :27:25.owners keep up with the details A lot of dogs when people move home,

:27:26. > :27:30.they do not keep up with the database, so unfortunately when a

:27:31. > :27:38.stray dog comes into our care, they have not kept up. You have matched

:27:39. > :27:39.him up with her owner. Thank you for bringing him in and for watching,

:27:40. > :27:44.good night.
