Welcome to BBC Points West with Alex Lovell and David Garmston. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Our main story tonight: The racist tweets of a local councillor. | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
UKIP suspends Philip Winter after an online remark | :00:10. | :00:11. | |
which causes offence - the council chairman | :00:12. | :00:13. | |
The comments are racist and they're misogynistic and they're not | :00:14. | :00:19. | |
the views of anyone on this council and I don't think anyone | :00:20. | :00:22. | |
Councillor Winter says his Twitter account was interfered with. | :00:23. | :00:39. | |
Our other headlines tonight: Throwing the book at them - | :00:40. | :00:42. | |

A councillor from South Gloucestershire, who says he's been | :00:59. | :01:09. | |
inspired by the tweets of President Trump, has been accused | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
Philip Winter, who serves on the lowest tier of local | :01:13. | :01:18. | |
government, a parish council, has been suspended | :01:19. | :01:20. | |
He's a councillor who nails his colours to the mast, | :01:21. | :01:29. | |
Philip Winter is outspoken locally, but now one comment on his Twitter | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
Calling black people a derogatory word, and saying | :01:35. | :01:44. | |
Mr Winter is on Almondsbury Parish Council, run from a small office | :01:45. | :01:49. | |
Today, they have been overwhelmed by complaints. | :01:50. | :02:03. | |
completely horrified and disgusted. The comments are racist and | :02:04. | :02:09. | |
misogynistic. They are not the views of anyone on this council. A lot of | :02:10. | :02:14. | |
the councillors have said to me that they don't want to set at the same | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
table as him. Would you like him sacked? I would, definitely. This | :02:20. | :02:25. | |
e-mail says what kind of people in Almondsbury would have that kind of | :02:26. | :02:31. | |
person on the council, and remind me never to visit, ever. That is very | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
sad, isn't it? What he has done is tarred the whole community. | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
I think the comments reflect more on him than the community we live in. I | :02:41. | :02:57. | |
feel quite disappointed. I would hate to think that it has brought | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
the village and to distribute and that these people from outside, that | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
is the impression of Almondsbury. Consider winter didn't want to | :03:07. | :03:11. | |
appear on camera today. I spoke to him on the bone. He said the | :03:12. | :03:16. | |
messages on his account are is this one particular about black people | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
being deported have been altered by hackers. He believes he believes he | :03:21. | :03:27. | |
has become a target. Ukip Centre bridge brief statement today saying | :03:28. | :03:30. | |
that he had been suspended and an investigation will follow. | :03:31. | :03:32. | |
The police say they have received a complaint and are investigating. | :03:33. | :03:39. | |
All this after Mr Winter started at twitter account because he was | :03:40. | :03:52. | |
inspired by Donald Trump. He said he feels like he's done nothing wrong | :03:53. | :03:56. | |
and wants to stay on the parish council. Whether or not they want to | :03:57. | :03:58. | |
keep him, is another thing entirely. Our reporter Andy Howard | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
is here with us now. Andy, how did Philip Winter come | :04:03. | :04:04. | |
to be a parish councillor? He was not elected, which might be a | :04:05. | :04:13. | |
surprise to some. Four people left the council and only four people | :04:14. | :04:18. | |
came forward, so proud of being cast he became at parish councillor. 18 | :04:19. | :04:23. | |
months ago he posted comments on Facebook which used offensive | :04:24. | :04:28. | |
language towards Muslims, so he has been in the news. It is not unusual | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
to get co-opted onto the parish council because there aren't | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
volunteers, for example. Can they sack him? Not directly, no. This now | :04:39. | :04:44. | |
goes to the local council, which is South Gloucestershire. An officer | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
there will look at this case, they have had plenty of complaints, and | :04:49. | :04:53. | |
work out whether Mr Winter has broken a code of conduct, which | :04:54. | :04:56. | |
would've signed when he became a counsellor. If they can find he has, | :04:57. | :05:05. | |
they can suspend him for fire him. All the parish council can do is | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
call a special meeting and at that meeting their will unequivocally | :05:10. | :05:11. | |
distanced themselves from what has been said on that twitter account. | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
At this point, that is all they can do. | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
Hundreds of demonstrators, including BAFTA award-winning | :05:19. | :05:19. | |
film director Ken Loach, have gathered in Bath this evening | :05:20. | :05:23. | |
to protest against council plans to move the city's central library. | :05:24. | :05:25. | |
The authority claims it will save almost ?1 million a year. | :05:26. | :05:28. | |
We are getting pretty used to these protests in bad. This is the second | :05:29. | :05:45. | |
in as many months. We have lost most of our protesters tonight. Let's | :05:46. | :05:51. | |
show you some shots of when it was in full swing, about 45 minutes ago. | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
There were several hundred of them outside the Guildhall. The council | :05:56. | :06:00. | |
say this isn't about the library closure, it is about a library | :06:01. | :06:02. | |
relocation, going from about 200 relocation, going from about 200 | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
metres up the road the, to about 400 metres in the opposite direction, | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
down to the bus station. Moving from the centre of Bath, to the edge. The | :06:13. | :06:17. | |
council say they need to do that because they have a big hole in the | :06:18. | :06:24. | |
budget. They need to save ?37 million by 2020. They have already | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
saved 12 million from the budget this year. There are various ways | :06:29. | :06:34. | |
they are thinking of doing that. One is a ?5.6 million cut in adult | :06:35. | :06:38. | |
social care. There could be job losses, and also modernising the | :06:39. | :06:42. | |
library service. They reckon that will save you time a year. That is a | :06:43. | :06:49. | |
significant part of the overall cuts they need to make. Lots of voices | :06:50. | :06:53. | |
here tonight is very vocal about the library but perhaps the most famous | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
was the film director Ken Loach, fresh from winning habit after the | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
other day. He said he passionately believes that the council should not | :07:03. | :07:04. | |
be relocating the library. The library is a big feature | :07:05. | :07:06. | |
in the centre of Bath. It's a place where people | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
can come and read. It really expresses something | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
of the community of the city, The idea that it's closed and put | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
some were less accessible, it's generally diminished, | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
the books are fewer. We also spoke to a lady called Julie | :07:20. | :07:37. | |
Hazlewood. She volunteered at the library for five years and she is | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
deeply upset. They said -- she's said they should be cutting other | :07:43. | :07:44. | |
things before they touched the library. | :07:45. | :07:47. | |
Why do they have to take away the beautiful things, | :07:48. | :07:54. | |
the beautiful libraries, the beautiful parks, | :07:55. | :07:56. | |
So, there we are, lots of people back trying to convince the council | :07:57. | :08:12. | |
who are inside right now that they should leave the library service | :08:13. | :08:15. | |
It's Valentine s Day and you're watching BBC Points West | :08:16. | :08:18. | |
And on the programme, lots more to bring you too. | :08:19. | :08:27. | |
Including: Off to play rugby up North - Bath confirm that | :08:28. | :08:30. | |
George Ford will be leaving at the end of the season. | :08:31. | :08:35. | |
A lamp for lovers - we find out more about the last | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
Valentine Lamp in Somerset about to be lit in a | :08:39. | :08:40. | |
A brothel in Weston-super-Mare was closed for business this | :08:41. | :08:53. | |
morning, following our investigation which revealed teenage girls | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
were employed to hand out leaflets several years ago. | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
Today, we've uncovered further allegations about more recent delays | :09:02. | :09:04. | |
in protecting vulnerable young people in the town. | :09:05. | :09:07. | |
Here's our health correspondent, Matthew Hill. | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
Butterfly's is normally open for business 24/7, | :09:12. | :09:14. | |
but this morning I was told it was closed. | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
I mean, if there was something going on, why haven't | :09:18. | :09:27. | |
So the police have not been here yet? | :09:28. | :09:30. | |
There's nothing going on, somebody is making up stories. | :09:31. | :09:37. | |
We can prove you are from our footage. | :09:38. | :09:47. | |
This follows our revelations on last night's Inside Out West. | :09:48. | :09:56. | |
Undercover footage shows Butterfly's is a brothel and we presented | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
evidence that teenage girls helped out four years ago cleaning | :10:01. | :10:02. | |
For over a decade, Butterfly's has been operating in plain sight | :10:03. | :10:09. | |
of the Conservative controlled council, the police | :10:10. | :10:12. | |
I wanted to ask the Conservative MP for Weston, John Penrose, | :10:13. | :10:18. | |
what he thought about how the police and the council have handled these | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
He preferred to give me this statement, which says: | :10:22. | :10:31. | |
"I'm very concerned about what may be new evidence, especially about | :10:32. | :10:33. | |
what goes on inside Butterfly's and shall be taking all these issues | :10:34. | :10:36. | |
It's wrong, definitely wrong, but it's not | :10:37. | :10:43. | |
Well, I think it should be closed down, yes? | :10:44. | :10:53. | |
Tonight, we can also reveal new concerns about how vulnerable | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
Leaked documents show there were safeguarding concerns | :10:58. | :11:05. | |
Two teenage girls suspected to be at risk of grooming. | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
The delay was "unacceptable" and confidence low about | :11:11. | :11:16. | |
North Somerset Council told us: "All safeguarding concerns | :11:17. | :11:23. | |
are treated seriously and properly investigated. | :11:24. | :11:26. | |
A strategy meeting to discuss the concerns relating to the girls | :11:27. | :11:31. | |
was held the day after we became of their identities. | :11:32. | :11:35. | |
The opinions expressed in the meeting appear to have been | :11:36. | :11:37. | |
made without knowledge of the work underway at the time to protect | :11:38. | :11:45. | |
But questions remain about what is going on under | :11:46. | :11:48. | |
It's been announced there's going to be a crackdown on binge | :11:49. | :11:58. | |
drinking at this year's Cheltenham Festival, | :11:59. | :12:00. | |
As well as limiting the amount of alcohol people can buy | :12:01. | :12:04. | |
inside the racecourse, over in the town centre, | :12:05. | :12:06. | |
council enforcement officers are to be given more powers to issue | :12:07. | :12:09. | |
on-the-spot fines to anyone who's overindulged and misbehaving. | :12:10. | :12:10. | |
Two professional footballers photographed urinating | :12:11. | :12:14. | |
Then one, Northampton Town's James Collins, | :12:15. | :12:19. | |
These photographs, taken at the start of last year's | :12:20. | :12:28. | |
Cheltenham Festival, made national headlines, | :12:29. | :12:29. | |
fuelling the boozy reputation that some critics have given the event | :12:30. | :12:32. | |
Alcohol consumption during that week, we get the impression | :12:33. | :12:41. | |
is going up year on year so we need to have more tools in our toolbox | :12:42. | :12:49. | |
At the festival itself, drinks will now be limited to four | :12:50. | :12:53. | |
Organisers say they don't want people to come purely to drink. | :12:54. | :12:57. | |
They want racegoers to enjoy the festival | :12:58. | :12:59. | |
without being blighted by those drinking irresponsibly. | :13:00. | :13:03. | |
But of course, it's not just inside the racecourse that | :13:04. | :13:05. | |
Every single year during festival week, tens of thousands | :13:06. | :13:08. | |
of extra pints are drunk here in Cheltenham town centre. | :13:09. | :13:13. | |
Its enforcement officers, like Brian Daughtrey here, | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
will be given extra powers to curb anti-social behaviour, | :13:19. | :13:21. | |
confiscate alcohol and, if necessary, hand out on-the-spot | :13:22. | :13:23. | |
Previously, only the police have been able to do this. | :13:24. | :13:36. | |
Needy get a lot of unseemly behaviour during the daytime, people | :13:37. | :13:43. | |
who are pre-drinking before they go to the racecourse. The image | :13:44. | :13:46. | |
definitely needs cleaning up. Having watched from afar for the last few | :13:47. | :13:50. | |
years, things have definitely changed, and I wouldn't say that the | :13:51. | :13:55. | |
better. The alcohol is a downside. People have a tendency not to know | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
when to stop and that is what brings it down. The pubs, clubs, hotels | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
think it is a great time, but I think it is really encouraging that | :14:05. | :14:08. | |
the racecourse is working more closely with puppets is here to make | :14:09. | :14:12. | |
sure they played their part in cutting down on the excessive | :14:13. | :14:17. | |
drinking that goes on. Organisers hope that this year's festival will | :14:18. | :14:19. | |
be remembered for the racing. A Bath and England player is leading | :14:20. | :14:24. | |
the campaign for research Dave Attwood has been raising tens | :14:25. | :14:26. | |
of thousands of pounds for dementia. Initially, his aim was to help | :14:27. | :14:32. | |
sufferers, but over the last three years he's switched his focus | :14:33. | :14:35. | |
to the links with concussion. Recent figures revealed the number | :14:36. | :14:40. | |
of reported incidents rose during the last season for the sixth | :14:41. | :14:43. | |
year in a row and it now accounts What started your interest | :14:44. | :14:47. | |
in dementia and research? Initially, I was raising money as | :14:48. | :15:07. | |
Anna London Irish of Bristol University. It was through my | :15:08. | :15:13. | |
grandparents, they both suffered with dementia, so I had first-hand | :15:14. | :15:18. | |
experience on degenerative brain diseases. Bristol University had | :15:19. | :15:24. | |
some strong links with neuroscience going on. I met some of the guys | :15:25. | :15:29. | |
there, just copy table conversation, and it spread rugby and how | :15:30. | :15:34. | |
concussion is a growing concern in rugby. Then we started talking about | :15:35. | :15:39. | |
potential links across that. Do you reckon there is a link between the | :15:40. | :15:44. | |
two? I really hope there isn't. I'm sure if there is a link it is not a | :15:45. | :15:50. | |
hugely strong link. The truth is, we don't really know. We can say with | :15:51. | :15:54. | |
certainty there is no link and that is what concerns me. When I was a | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
young child and I wanted to play rugby, the more you can find out | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
about it, your body will go through wear and tear, that is fine, but you | :16:03. | :16:07. | |
never think the wear and tear your brain will go through. The worry is | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
that you spent 15 years playing professional rugby, and 15 years | :16:13. | :16:16. | |
later down the line you are starting to see the early onset of | :16:17. | :16:20. | |
Alzheimer's and dementia, stuck to that. We don't want to have to deal | :16:21. | :16:23. | |
with that. Potentially, it could there. The fact that it is rising so | :16:24. | :16:31. | |
much, why do you think that is? Is there a change in the game? People | :16:32. | :16:36. | |
are getting bigger, faster, stronger. Sports science is getting | :16:37. | :16:40. | |
better. We are heavier and bulkier, more lean. That means that the | :16:41. | :16:46. | |
collisions involved are bigger and stronger, the way the game has | :16:47. | :16:50. | |
evolved, players are playing the game for longer so there are more | :16:51. | :16:54. | |
conditions and ball. The second part of this, with the new assessment on | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
concussion, we are seeing more of it. We are seeing more concussion is | :16:59. | :17:05. | |
happening in rugby. I was doing some research on the First World War and | :17:06. | :17:09. | |
I saw pictures of Dean to rugby players, they were an ordinary size, | :17:10. | :17:14. | |
11 stone. Now it is so different. You devised a special helmet which | :17:15. | :17:23. | |
might help. There is a grey area. There is some development of the new | :17:24. | :17:27. | |
head guard that some people have suggested will help concussion. | :17:28. | :17:31. | |
There is nothing concrete on the ground saying that head guards will | :17:32. | :17:36. | |
limit concussion. I purely wear a scrum because my mum tells me too. | :17:37. | :17:42. | |
It is to stop me getting cauliflower ears and cuts and abrasions, to look | :17:43. | :17:47. | |
pretty pictures is the gist it. The interesting thing about these new | :17:48. | :17:51. | |
guys with the head guard, they were the first people that are starting | :17:52. | :17:55. | |
to look at the science of the head guard and Hayek might actually | :17:56. | :17:57. | |
impact what is going on in the brain during these collisions. There is so | :17:58. | :18:03. | |
much more could talk about. And keep coming in to talk us. I keep telling | :18:04. | :18:09. | |
my son to pass the ball! It scares me to death. Thanks for coming in. | :18:10. | :18:14. | |
Now this is a story you'll be interested in, Dave. | :18:15. | :18:17. | |
Bath Rugby have confirmed that your fellow England | :18:18. | :18:19. | |
international George Ford will leave at the end of the season | :18:20. | :18:21. | |
He will re-join Leicester Tigers, whose current fly-half, | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
Freddie Burns, is moving the other way. | :18:26. | :18:26. | |
Ever since his dad, Mike, was sacked as head coach | :18:27. | :18:32. | |
at the end of last season, there have been rumours that | :18:33. | :18:35. | |
George Ford was unhappy and wanted to leave. | :18:36. | :18:37. | |
Now the club has made public the news that | :18:38. | :18:39. | |
I think it is one of those things, you never want to lose a guy he is | :18:40. | :18:52. | |
world-class, but on the other side you want players that are happy to | :18:53. | :19:00. | |
here. Obviously, he put wasn't comfortable planning his future | :19:01. | :19:02. | |
George arrived from Leicester in 2013 and during that time | :19:03. | :19:05. | |
has become a regular England international. | :19:06. | :19:06. | |
Still only 23, he has his best years ahead of him, | :19:07. | :19:09. | |
just not in the blue, black and white. | :19:10. | :19:11. | |
Most supporters have felt that George has been a bit unsettled the | :19:12. | :19:18. | |
season, maybe during parts of last season. There will be glad there is | :19:19. | :19:22. | |
clarity in this situation. George is an immensely talented rugby player, | :19:23. | :19:27. | |
but if you see is his future being at Leicester, we will wish him well. | :19:28. | :19:29. | |
Bath Rugby have softened the blow of Ford's departure by announcing | :19:30. | :19:33. | |
that fellow England international Freddie Burns will replace him. | :19:34. | :19:35. | |
Born and raised in the city, and having come through the club's | :19:36. | :19:38. | |
academy, Freddie now has the chance to make his mark on the first team. | :19:39. | :19:43. | |
I met him and he is an outstanding young man. He is a good character. | :19:44. | :19:52. | |
He is also really aware of his strengths and weaknesses and wants | :19:53. | :19:55. | |
to be involved in the team and really enjoys the rugby we are | :19:56. | :19:57. | |
With the speculation over, Bath's focus will be on staying | :19:58. | :20:00. | |
in the Premiership play-off places, with another Twickenham | :20:01. | :20:02. | |
Now, of course, today is Valentine s Day. | :20:03. | :20:06. | |
If you need a romantic place for a proposal tonight, | :20:07. | :20:09. | |
then you could consider under the Valentine Gaslamp | :20:10. | :20:11. | |
It's the last working one left in Somerset. | :20:12. | :20:26. | |
But as Michelle Ruminski reports, the tradition of lighting | :20:27. | :20:28. | |
it could soon die out unless an apprentice is found. | :20:29. | :20:34. | |
Reg's love affair with the Valentine Lamp all began | :20:35. | :20:36. | |
when he found its cast iron column in a skip. | :20:37. | :20:40. | |
Over nearly three decades, he has put his heart | :20:41. | :20:42. | |
and soul into restoring it, decorating it with symbols of love, | :20:43. | :20:45. | |
All I know is that I got carried away and I think, in a way, | :20:46. | :20:52. | |
I fell in love with the lamp by accident and it controlled me | :20:53. | :20:56. | |
Because I often say, "Whyever did I start", | :20:57. | :21:01. | |
but having started and rather liking the romance, it's difficult to stop. | :21:02. | :21:05. | |
And it's fair to say the Valentine Gaslamp has | :21:06. | :21:07. | |
a special place in many other people's hearts to. | :21:08. | :21:11. | |
You can't fault him and I'm just hoping that people take good care | :21:12. | :21:15. | |
of it because you won't find anything like that anywhere else. | :21:16. | :21:22. | |
How many years have you been going to the ceremony? | :21:23. | :21:25. | |
So it really does mean something to you? | :21:26. | :21:29. | |
And a lot of other people around here, as well. | :21:30. | :21:33. | |
None more so than Dave and Sue - Reg's daughter. | :21:34. | :21:35. | |
This is here two years ago that I proposed to Sue and brought | :21:36. | :21:39. | |
with me a heart-shaped red cushion and got down on one knee | :21:40. | :21:43. | |
Great shock, but a wonderful shock and we're now planning to get | :21:44. | :21:49. | |
married and live the rest of our lives together, | :21:50. | :21:51. | |
but we'll will always have that history with the Valentine Lamp. | :21:52. | :21:57. | |
But with Reg growing older and his family living up North, | :21:58. | :22:01. | |
he is urgently looking for someone to replace him. | :22:02. | :22:03. | |
About five foot 11, I would say - pushing it! | :22:04. | :22:08. | |
You see, I'm looking for a lamp-lighter to take over. | :22:09. | :22:12. | |
Tonight, Reg has done the honours for the 23rd time. | :22:13. | :22:15. | |
He's hoping his lamp lighting tradition will spark someone else | :22:16. | :22:19. | |
In the last hour, the Valentine Lamp has been lit in a special ceremony. | :22:20. | :22:31. | |
Around 100 people turned out to celebrate this annual | :22:32. | :22:36. | |
My friend propose that a fish and chip shop in Warminster, anywhere | :22:37. | :22:52. | |
can be romantic. Was the answer yes? It was. At the next bag of chips. | :22:53. | :22:54. | |
Today is all about love and true love is hard to find. | :22:55. | :22:59. | |
But some of you watching tonight have struck gold and been married | :23:00. | :23:01. | |
Gordon and Maureen Rutley, from Clevedon in North Somerset, | :23:02. | :23:05. | |
For Valentine s Day, they've shared their story | :23:06. | :23:08. | |
with us and their secret for a happy marriage. | :23:09. | :23:14. | |
Maureen was sat on the lap of Shirley, her friends. I was going to | :23:15. | :23:23. | |
pass Shirley for the bands. I plucked up courage and walked across | :23:24. | :23:31. | |
and Maureen stood up. I felt embarrassed away thought I had | :23:32. | :23:40. | |
better dance with her now! He had the most ghastly, horrific tie on | :23:41. | :23:48. | |
and I thought, my golly, he is a space! For the first year of our | :23:49. | :23:55. | |
relationship you were still in the RAF, so the letters went back and | :23:56. | :24:01. | |
forth between Bristol and Lyneham. We got together at weekends. That's | :24:02. | :24:06. | |
right. We were married at Saint Barnabas Church, Daventry Road. We | :24:07. | :24:14. | |
had the reception at Maureen's Mum's house. We didn't stay the whole | :24:15. | :24:21. | |
time. We disappeared to Temple Meads where we booked a holiday in a hotel | :24:22. | :24:34. | |
called the Mayfair in Piccadilly. My best trade is a make a cup of tea | :24:35. | :24:41. | |
every morning, take it in, we can wrap, say, it is time for tea, | :24:42. | :24:48. | |
Maureen. I normally grown. You normally prudent and moan. Anyway, | :24:49. | :24:52. | |
she drinks the teeth, but that has been every day except when I have | :24:53. | :24:54. | |
been in hospital. Isn't that lovely? I make tea for my | :24:55. | :25:10. | |
telly husband, yes. I make it for you occasionally. | :25:11. | :25:11. | |
Finally tonight, the Duchess of Cornwall was taken | :25:12. | :25:14. | |
for a Valentine s Day spin today and joked "don't tell my husband". | :25:15. | :25:17. | |
Camilla, who was on a day of engagements in Bristol | :25:18. | :25:20. | |
without Prince Charles, dropped in on a tea party run | :25:21. | :25:22. | |
The Sun's royal photographer, Arthur Edwards, charmed the Duchess | :25:23. | :25:26. | |
onto the dance floor, saying, "I want to dance with | :25:27. | :25:28. | |
Later, the Duchess remarked, "Thanks for the dance, Arthur. | :25:29. | :25:32. | |
Now to someone who loves the weather - Ian, who's up on the roof. | :25:33. | :25:41. | |
How's it looking for Valentine s night? | :25:42. | :25:48. | |
Tomorrow will start when Tariq, with a fairly prolonged fears of fairly | :25:49. | :25:58. | |
mild weather, which should last the remainder of this Mac -- this month. | :25:59. | :26:04. | |
It might turn colder again in the mid-heart of March, but that is a | :26:05. | :26:09. | |
long way away. Tomorrow, to add dry start, an area of showery rain | :26:10. | :26:13. | |
pushing up from the south-west, likely to turn heavily. The chant of | :26:14. | :26:17. | |
some brighter weather in the afternoon, with the chance of some | :26:18. | :26:21. | |
showers, but they will die away into the afternoon and honour to the | :26:22. | :26:25. | |
evening. A band of rain across us at the moment. The occlusion runs its | :26:26. | :26:35. | |
way north eastwards, then it will tail off as we get better known to | :26:36. | :26:40. | |
the day, by which stage we are into a more mild south-westerly flow that | :26:41. | :26:43. | |
will dominate the pattern for the rest of the week. At the moment, the | :26:44. | :26:48. | |
light rain is trying away at the minute. A lot of hill fog and that | :26:49. | :26:52. | |
will continue to be the case with the course of the night. It will be | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
a mild night, by early tomorrow morning though showery outbreaks of | :26:57. | :27:01. | |
rain coming up from the south-west. Cabbages will start tomorrow at 67 | :27:02. | :27:05. | |
Celsius. Then it is a case of waiting for the rain to arrive. They | :27:06. | :27:10. | |
will be showery and fashion, but they could come together and it | :27:11. | :27:16. | |
could be some thundery downpours. By the afternoon the showers will tail | :27:17. | :27:25. | |
off into the evening. Temperatures will get up to ten or 11 Celsius | :27:26. | :27:30. | |
tomorrow, they can get as high as 12 or 13. That could be some fog around | :27:31. | :27:35. | |
to start at the estate. Other than that, a decent day, a quiet one. It | :27:36. | :27:42. | |
will be noticeably mild. Happy Valentines night. We will see | :27:43. | :27:44. | |
you again tomorrow. | :27:45. | :27:46. |
