:00:05. > :00:08.Hello, I'm Sally Taylor. Welcome to South Today. In tonight's programme.
:00:08. > :00:16.A family turns on its own. Four members of a family, including
:00:16. > :00:22.three teenagers, are accused of plotting to kill Grandad.
:00:22. > :00:25.The debate over killing badgers as Dawson sees a rise in bovine TB.
:00:25. > :00:29.She lost her husband in Afghanistan. Tonight she talks candidly of life
:00:29. > :00:32.as a young widow and the importance of support from service charities.
:00:32. > :00:39.And the peak of his profession - celebrating the drawings of one of
:00:39. > :00:42.our great illustrators. If you do one thing really when you
:00:42. > :00:52.get known for it, but if you do everything really well, people just
:00:52. > :00:54.
:00:54. > :00:58.A family of four, including two girls under 16, stood in the dock
:00:58. > :01:01.today accused of plotting to kill their grandfather. Winchester Crown
:01:01. > :01:04.Court heard how the family from Eastleigh ambushed the 89-year-old
:01:04. > :01:09.in his front garden, beating him with bricks, all to try to get
:01:10. > :01:13.their hands on their inheritance early. They had made earlier
:01:13. > :01:19.attempts to kill him using methods looked up on the internet. Ben
:01:19. > :01:22.Moore was in court and joins me now. What's the detail of this case?
:01:22. > :01:26.family, along with another girl, stood in court today to face
:01:26. > :01:31.charges of conspiracy to murder and maliciously wounding. Legal
:01:32. > :01:34.restrictions mean we can't identify any of the individuals. The key
:01:34. > :01:39.events took place in a Hampshire village near Winchester last
:01:39. > :01:41.November. The victim was an 89- year-old grandfather. And the
:01:41. > :01:44.alleged attempt to kill him involved his 48-year-old adopted
:01:44. > :01:51.daughter, her 19-year-old son, along with his girlfriend, who was
:01:51. > :01:55.16. The court also heard the woman's two daughters - 15 and 14 -
:01:55. > :01:57.also played a significant part in the attack. The prosecution said
:01:57. > :02:04.the family drove to the grandfather's house, lured him
:02:04. > :02:11.outside and set about him. The youngest girl having a brick in a
:02:11. > :02:16.plastic bag to hit him with. What happened to the victim? The man
:02:16. > :02:18.survived, but his injuries were horrific. The court was shown
:02:18. > :02:22.pictures of extensive serious injuries including blackened eyes
:02:22. > :02:24.and wounds to the head. The family had called 999 and said the
:02:24. > :02:32.grandfather had fallen but paramedics quickly realised it was
:02:32. > :02:34.an assault and all five were arrested. When police seized the
:02:34. > :02:38.family's computers they found the mother, in particular, had been
:02:38. > :02:41.searching the web using phrases like "where can you hurt someone a
:02:41. > :02:48.lot by hitting them", and even, ""the easiest way to kill an old
:02:48. > :02:51.person." The prosecution also say the family tried to kill the
:02:51. > :02:59.grandfather on other occasions, including by trying to blow up his
:02:59. > :03:03.car by tampering with the fuel line and battery. All five deny the
:03:04. > :03:07.charges. The case continues There are new calls tonight for a cull of
:03:07. > :03:15.badgers, following an increase in the number of new cattle herds
:03:15. > :03:19.testing positive for bovine TB. incidence of the disease has been
:03:19. > :03:27.steadily increasing since the 1980s, but a solution seems to be as far
:03:27. > :03:33.away as ever. Chris Coneybeer is on a farm near Blandform Forum.
:03:33. > :03:39.You draw me on Downbarn Farm where they have a dairy herd and they are
:03:39. > :03:44.only too aware of the problems of bovine TB. Latest figures show that
:03:44. > :03:48.national incidence of the disease is up by 6% but in Dorset it is
:03:48. > :03:52.more like 30%, and that is causing concern.
:03:52. > :03:56.It is one of the trickiest and most emotionally-charged debates in
:03:56. > :04:01.farming and in the last financial year, the financial bill rose to
:04:01. > :04:06.more than �60 million. It is still not known how bovine TB is
:04:06. > :04:10.transmitted between badgers and cattle but there is a link, and
:04:10. > :04:15.when cows are infected, their commercial value end, the animals
:04:15. > :04:19.are destroyed and the farmer compensated with public money.
:04:19. > :04:24.Farmers generally favour culling badgers, removing them altogether
:04:24. > :04:30.from areas where cattle are farmed, but others say that badgers have a
:04:30. > :04:36.right to exist and another way must be found. It has an emotive debate
:04:36. > :04:42.and one without apparent end. Where do we go from here? And short time
:04:42. > :04:49.ago I expected to people on either side of the debate. James, you are
:04:49. > :04:53.having problems with bovine TB now. We are currently under restriction
:04:53. > :04:59.for bovine TB, after two years of testing for the cattle every 60
:04:59. > :05:04.days. We went clear And now, after a six-month test, we have
:05:04. > :05:07.discovered we have 10 that are inconclusive. In other words they
:05:07. > :05:13.have to be retested and it means we are back under restrictions again
:05:13. > :05:18.so we cannot sell any animals and that the good director slaughter.
:05:18. > :05:23.Simon, the trust also have cattle so you are sympathetic. We are
:05:23. > :05:28.extremely sympathetic. We have 100 Sunday herd of cattle across the
:05:28. > :05:33.county and we have been restricted a couple of times now. We know just
:05:33. > :05:38.what it is like and how demoralising it can be. The actual
:05:38. > :05:43.problem is how to deal with it. Farmers in general favour of cull.
:05:44. > :05:49.Why is that. I feel our circumstances were a closed herd,
:05:49. > :05:53.in other words we have not bought any cattle in, and even after going
:05:53. > :05:56.clear, six months later we find we have inconclusive animals. We feel
:05:56. > :05:59.it must be the wildlife that have brought the disease into the farm
:05:59. > :06:06.or that the FA may have already been on the farm and nothing has
:06:06. > :06:11.been done about it. Simon, others disagree, yourself included. If you
:06:11. > :06:15.make the decision that it is badgers that are the problem, then
:06:15. > :06:20.a cull will go some way to eradicating badgers, but if the
:06:20. > :06:24.problem is bovine TB, then you should treat the disease. How far
:06:24. > :06:29.off are we from getting a vaccine will be effective in cattle?
:06:29. > :06:33.probably would be our long-term aim but we just feel is it right that
:06:33. > :06:38.we should have diseased wildlife robing our farm, not only affecting
:06:38. > :06:42.our cattle but also her own species. To risk is that the evidence
:06:42. > :06:48.suggests that if you take out badgers from an area, other badgers
:06:48. > :06:52.or move in, some will be affected and some will not. What you end up
:06:52. > :06:55.with instead of discrete areas of infected badgers, you end up with
:06:55. > :07:00.badgers infected across the whole of an area and have become far
:07:00. > :07:07.worse. So for scientific reasons we think or cold could make things
:07:07. > :07:11.worse. A badger cull was meant to start in west Wales and round about
:07:11. > :07:14.now but it has been put on hold while the review is carried out.
:07:14. > :07:20.That will look at the sides involved and results will be
:07:20. > :07:24.followed with keen interest by the farmers and wildlife experts. I
:07:24. > :07:28.should point out that the milk from all tasered fault is pasteurised so
:07:28. > :07:32.it is absolutely safe to drink. A West Sussex company that supplies
:07:32. > :07:34.products for loft conversions has ceased trading. The Loft Shop,
:07:34. > :07:37.whose headquarters are in Littlehampton, employs around 40
:07:37. > :07:41.staff across 19 stores. Bosses say they hope to refund customers who
:07:41. > :07:43.have placed orders with them, if they can't supply the products.
:07:43. > :07:47.Lightning has struck Gatwick Airport and several houses across
:07:47. > :07:51.the South this afternoon. In West Sussex fire crews are still at the
:07:51. > :07:54.scene of a house fire in Crawley after it was hit. Let's go to our
:07:54. > :07:58.newsroom - Sarah-Jane Bungay has been following developments. When
:07:58. > :08:01.did the strikes begin? Well, it appears they began off the South
:08:01. > :08:08.Coast around 11.30 this morning - by 1pm they'd reached Havant in
:08:08. > :08:11.Hampshire. A chimney there was destroyed on a house in Cross Way -
:08:11. > :08:14.neighbours across the road from the property said they had heard a
:08:14. > :08:21.massive bang and then their front room lit up like someone was using
:08:21. > :08:27.a flash on a camera. This was the scene in Bognor Regis - sent in by
:08:27. > :08:31.Hayley Bickell. And there was a real thunderstorm in Brighton -
:08:31. > :08:34.this was the dramatic scene there captured by artist Linda Boucer.
:08:34. > :08:38.She Tweeted to say her whole studio shook during the thunder and
:08:38. > :08:41.lightning. There was a lightning strike on the control tower at
:08:41. > :08:46.Gatwick Airport - flights were delayed for about 25 minutes but no
:08:46. > :08:50.equipment was damaged. I gather firefighters have been at a house
:08:50. > :08:59.in West Sussex too? Yes, they were called to a detached house in the
:08:59. > :09:03.Maiden Bower area of Crawley where fire took hold. For punts that
:09:03. > :09:07.tended and it seems there was a direct hit to the roof and the
:09:07. > :09:12.lining went straight through. This is what one of the fire officers
:09:12. > :09:18.told us. It is very unfortunate and very unlucky. We do get lightning
:09:18. > :09:24.strikes, but not very often. It is quite a rare event. Both owners
:09:24. > :09:27.were at work. Obviously they were contacted and are now here but came
:09:27. > :09:30.home to the devastating scene. finally, just what commuters don't
:09:30. > :09:37.want - cancellations on the line between London Victoria and
:09:37. > :09:47.Brighton. There are also issues west of London in the Reading and
:09:47. > :09:48.
:09:48. > :09:50.Newbury areas. Controversial plans to merge two
:09:50. > :09:53.secondary schools in Surrey have been pulled after fierce opposition
:09:53. > :09:57.from parents. Kings International College in Camberley is in special
:09:57. > :10:00.measures. The council wanted to secure its future by merging it
:10:00. > :10:04.with nearby Tomlinscote School. But governors there rejected the idea.
:10:04. > :10:07.The council says it is withdrawing the plans following that vote and
:10:08. > :10:11.the end of a public consultation. Still to come. As preparations for
:10:11. > :10:15.the South Coast Proms get under way, a young widow tells us about the
:10:15. > :10:18.importance of supporting service charities.
:10:18. > :10:24.Another wave of strikes began in Southampton this morning as more
:10:24. > :10:27.than 300 council workers started a week long walk out. Previous
:10:27. > :10:30.strikes by refuse collectors and street cleaners have led to piles
:10:30. > :10:33.of rubbish gathering on the streets. They are walking out again, along
:10:33. > :10:36.with parking enforcement officers, library staff and toll collectors
:10:36. > :10:38.on the Itchen bridge. They are angry about proposals to cut their
:10:38. > :10:42.pay. The council says it will prevent redundancies.
:10:42. > :10:46.Pilots with Virgin Atlantic Airways are on the brink of announcing the
:10:46. > :10:49.dates of a series of strikes, which would be the first in the company's
:10:49. > :10:53.history. That's unless a pay dispute is resolved by today. It
:10:53. > :10:56.comes at a time when hundreds of new jobs are being created by the
:10:56. > :11:06.company in West Sussex. Virgin is based in Crawley, and is currently
:11:06. > :11:07.
:11:07. > :11:12.training around 500 new staff to work as cabin crew. Evacuate,
:11:12. > :11:16.evacuate! It is their first week training as cabin crew and they are
:11:16. > :11:20.already learning about one of the most important roles they will have
:11:20. > :11:24.in their new jobs. For almost 30 years, Virgin Atlantic or from
:11:24. > :11:30.their airline from this base in Crawley and they are now an
:11:30. > :11:35.integral part of the local economy. We have added 450 new jobs this
:11:35. > :11:40.year, of which about 350 are based here. This is our home and it has
:11:40. > :11:44.been our home from day one. Richard operated his first flight from
:11:44. > :11:47.Gatwick to New York. You have people like Virgin with their
:11:48. > :11:51.global headquarters but then their supply chain and the people like
:11:51. > :11:55.going to supporting them. On the back of that, the connectivity of
:11:55. > :12:05.the route that Virgin operates means we see many businesses based
:12:05. > :12:06.
:12:06. > :12:11.here he would not consider being anywhere else. This is how the
:12:11. > :12:15.airline sells itself to the public. It's at first sell tickets and sell
:12:15. > :12:22.the company ethos to new staff, who seemed to bite into it, even in the
:12:22. > :12:29.first week. But first they have to pass five weeks of intensive
:12:29. > :12:39.training before being allowed to fly as Virgin crapping to -- cabin
:12:39. > :12:47.
:12:47. > :12:51.One woman decided that full-time carers need some time off and a
:12:51. > :13:01.little pampering so she found some money to send 22 carers on an all-
:13:01. > :13:01.
:13:01. > :13:04.expenses trip to London. Darren Blakeman's life is looking after
:13:04. > :13:14.his mum. Jo suffers from severe breathing difficulties and needs
:13:14. > :13:14.
:13:14. > :13:21.constant care. When did you last go on holiday? Last real holiday was
:13:21. > :13:25.before dad died, 5.5 years ago. My life changed completely, not be
:13:25. > :13:31.about to go to work, and that put you into feeling depressed because
:13:31. > :13:38.he's not feel you're getting life as a carer. But today he's excited
:13:38. > :13:45.at the prospect of having two whole days off. When you are carried you
:13:45. > :13:51.never go home from work because I'm his work. I think he deserves a
:13:51. > :14:00.break. He and 21 other carers from Southampton are being treated with
:14:00. > :14:05.a free trip to London - so not too far from home. Some feel slightly
:14:05. > :14:10.guilty, excited, so mixed emotions. Some of the people have never had a
:14:10. > :14:14.break before. We have a trip on the London Eye, a posh hotel for
:14:15. > :14:20.afternoon tea, going to see a musical. All these have been given
:14:20. > :14:23.by London businesses he recognised the role that carers play. Two days
:14:23. > :14:27.off in five-and-a-half years doesn't seem like much, but for
:14:27. > :14:37.Darren and the rest of the group, who knows when that next break will
:14:37. > :14:44.
:14:44. > :14:48.Sport now. The Island Games are well under way.
:14:48. > :14:55.There was a great opening ceremony on Saturday night and lots of
:14:55. > :14:58.people there. 4000 competitors but a good high standard of competition.
:14:58. > :15:02.On the track, times that would have claimed gold medals in the past
:15:02. > :15:04.will not even get competiors on the podium this time around. Meanwhile
:15:04. > :15:08.the presence of three internationals in the shot put,
:15:08. > :15:17.meant disappointment for one islander. In the first of a series
:15:17. > :15:21.of reports from the Games this week, Roisin Gausin has been to Sandown.
:15:21. > :15:27.Garry Newton steps up in front of a home ground at this year's Island
:15:27. > :15:31.Games. He is no stranger to top- level competition. In 2006 he got
:15:31. > :15:36.an England call up for the beach football World Cup. Weeks later he
:15:36. > :15:40.was diagnosed with cancer. You can sit down of thing that is it, but I
:15:40. > :15:45.didn't, I reflected for a few hours and thought, not to have to do,
:15:45. > :15:50.have to go into hospital and get it done. After that and it come out
:15:50. > :15:54.stronger than ever. That is exactly what he has done. Turned his hand
:15:54. > :15:59.to track and field, proving he can hold his own amongst international
:15:59. > :16:05.competition. And medal will have been a fairy-tale ending but he was
:16:05. > :16:08.not to be. He missed out other podium finish by just two cms.
:16:08. > :16:13.is into ridges was in my mind from the third round and I did not quite
:16:13. > :16:20.get it. I did throw another throw which I thought would be enough but
:16:20. > :16:24.not quite. It does put the pressure on, just a small amount. His wife
:16:24. > :16:28.Emily is also competing for the Isle of Wight. Her time in the 100
:16:28. > :16:32.metres would have won gold two years ago but the show she had to
:16:32. > :16:38.settle for 5th. It is another example of this huge rise in
:16:38. > :16:42.standards being seen. Tonight, Gary is up again. This time it is in the
:16:42. > :16:52.discus but he will have to throw in excess of 40 metres to beat him
:16:52. > :16:53.
:16:53. > :16:55.Meanwhile Rhodes have had their football team kicked out of the
:16:55. > :16:59.games following their defeat against Jersey last night in
:16:59. > :17:02.Newport. Two players were sent off, and the Island Games committee
:17:02. > :17:04.today banned the Greek island's football players from the next two
:17:04. > :17:07.tournaments, such was the level of misbehaviour.
:17:07. > :17:10.Kent beat Surrey in the Twenty20 last night, meanwhile Hampshire
:17:10. > :17:14.reclaimed top spot in the Southern Group with a win over Sussex.
:17:14. > :17:18.Shahid Afridi showed why the Royals were so keen to add him to their
:17:18. > :17:20.side this summer, helping them to a good start- although he was
:17:20. > :17:24.dismissed by Monty Panesar straight after that six. Hampshire's total
:17:24. > :17:27.of 126 for 8 looked a little short, but some fine bowling, notably from
:17:27. > :17:33.Imran Tahir and Afridi, saw Hampshire bowl Sussex out for just
:17:33. > :17:35.91. Monty the last man to go. Some football news, Bournemouth
:17:35. > :17:38.have signed Portsmouth goalkeeper Daryl Flahaven on a one-year
:17:38. > :17:41.contract. Meanwhile, as their players return for pre-season,
:17:41. > :17:45.Brighton have unveiled plans for a state-of-the-art training ground
:17:45. > :17:48.near Shoreham in West Sussex. Albion currently train on sports
:17:48. > :17:53.grounds at the University of Sussex, just across the road from the new
:17:53. > :17:55.Amex Stadium. The planned site at Marsh Barn Lane will include indoor
:17:55. > :18:01.and outdoor facilities, plus accommodation for young people
:18:01. > :18:10.attending residential courses. A formal planning application should
:18:10. > :18:15.be submitted by the end of the year. Another sign that brighter not
:18:15. > :18:23.going places. The move to the stadium, player signings.
:18:24. > :18:31.A whole new era. When I was a child and I loved books, I loved the
:18:31. > :18:35.illustrations. These illustrations of this particular illustrator have
:18:35. > :18:41.excited and terrified children for around 80 years but many people do
:18:41. > :18:44.not know his name, Mervyn Peake. Mervyn Peake drew pictures for
:18:44. > :18:47.Treasure Island, Alice In Wonderland and in his own
:18:47. > :18:55.Gormenghast books. The artist is buried in West Sussex, so his
:18:55. > :19:00.supporters are making sure his name is remembered in the county.
:19:00. > :19:03.I held my hand and the horrible creature cryptic... A scene from
:19:03. > :19:07.Treasure Island turned into a beautifully detailed picture.
:19:08. > :19:11.Meryvn Peake brought characters to life in line drawings. Not just
:19:11. > :19:17.from Treasure Island but the Grimm Brothers fairy tales and his own
:19:17. > :19:23.series, Gormenghast. Yet his name gets forgotten. He is almost too
:19:24. > :19:26.talented for his own good. If you do well one thing really what you
:19:26. > :19:30.get known for it but if you do everything really well people
:19:30. > :19:33.cannot keep track of you. For a time, Peake lived in the shadows of
:19:33. > :19:40.Arundel Castle. Some claim it's the setting of his eerie Gormenghast
:19:40. > :19:45.series. There's no doubt the area was a great inspiration. The sheer
:19:45. > :19:49.beauty of the place was significant. It is pretty hard to see anywhere
:19:49. > :19:53.that is an attractive to the eye. He would write his pieces having
:19:53. > :19:56.been inspired by the countryside. It is the centenary of his birth
:19:56. > :19:59.and in Chichester they are remembering him. At the Pallant
:19:59. > :20:05.House and Otter Galleries, exhibitions are under way to
:20:05. > :20:11.celebrate the man who covered everything from poems to the war.
:20:11. > :20:19.He had a magazine commission to make drawings of the inmates at the
:20:19. > :20:23.Belsen concentration camp. There is also captain slot Abort, the more
:20:23. > :20:27.fun side to his work. Mervyn Peake died of Parkison's disease aged 57,
:20:27. > :20:34.he was buried in Burpham. Towards the end of his life he could no

:20:38. > :20:41.This weekend sees the second South Coast Proms, a musical gala in
:20:41. > :20:45.Portsmouth to raise money for the Royal Navy and Royal Marines
:20:45. > :20:49.Charity. This year it will spend �5 million helping service personnel
:20:49. > :20:52.and their dependants. Someone who knows the work of the charity is
:20:52. > :20:55.Kirianne Curley, who's husband Stephen died last year while he was
:20:55. > :21:04.serving in Afghanistan just months after the birth of their son
:21:04. > :21:10.William. I'm delighted to say she is with me in the studio. I wanted
:21:10. > :21:15.to start with a quote from your husband. This is quite
:21:15. > :21:21.extraordinary. He said not living life on the edge, you're taking up
:21:21. > :21:25.too much room. To live by the sentiments? Absolutely. He very
:21:25. > :21:29.much believe that if you weren't making the best of yourself you are
:21:29. > :21:34.wasting an opportunity. So I felt that when he was killed you very
:21:35. > :21:40.much handed the baton to me to continue that. It was pertinent for
:21:40. > :21:45.me to take that on board and instil it in William. You're young son. It
:21:45. > :21:52.is quite interesting that you talk of the need for a widow's handbook.
:21:52. > :21:55.What you mean by that? I think when Stephen was first killed, my
:21:55. > :22:00.visiting officer came, Absolut fantastic, talked me through the
:22:00. > :22:03.process of what would take place. When you have just suffered a pseud
:22:03. > :22:08.shock when you have injured the news I have been given, it went
:22:08. > :22:13.over my head and did not register. I think you would be so pertinent
:22:13. > :22:18.for some kind of guide to be put together in order for those moments
:22:18. > :22:21.when I have that panic, to be up to go through what. I suppose, in a
:22:21. > :22:28.sense, you get the wonderful emotional support that you need,
:22:28. > :22:32.but does it more the practical side? It was those things such as I
:22:32. > :22:39.would go to bed and I had a very young baby, struggled slipping
:22:39. > :22:45.anyway. Three in the morning I wake up and think, I need to cancel his
:22:45. > :22:50.phone contract, has the car got its committee? Any family has job roles
:22:50. > :22:56.and it was taking those on board. What about the financial side?
:22:56. > :23:01.was something that did not register. I panicked about what am I going to
:23:01. > :23:04.do about money? Fortunately, we were incredibly lucky that we have
:23:04. > :23:09.the inside to take out private insurance but there are many people
:23:09. > :23:14.out there that do not do that still. Although the danger element is very
:23:14. > :23:19.much there. Although I was told, this amount of money is coming to
:23:19. > :23:26.you, it does not register. When you are in that state of shock cure in
:23:26. > :23:31.a blind panic. Expenses just go on. They made hugely. You have to think
:23:31. > :23:38.about fuel costs, at my phone bill went through the roof, making do
:23:38. > :23:44.arrangements, calling people abroad. In a sense, do these sort of
:23:44. > :23:51.service charities that we're talking about helped in that? Did
:23:51. > :23:56.you get help from them? Yes. Initially, I received some cheques
:23:56. > :24:00.through which took that huge pressure off and created a huge
:24:00. > :24:07.buffer for me to take a breath and say, right, there is that amount of
:24:07. > :24:10.money. You have to approach charities. They don't have the
:24:10. > :24:17.jurisdiction to approach you. You have to find them and I found that
:24:17. > :24:21.a bit difficult. You want to go to Afghanistan, why? It comes down to
:24:21. > :24:25.that hole, when you see flies up the side of the road, and you know
:24:25. > :24:31.they have been laid by family and friends of the lost. It is that
:24:31. > :24:37.whole thing. Stephen Spender a halt last two months of his life living
:24:37. > :24:41.in Afghanistan and I very much feel it would honour him. Thanks so much
:24:41. > :24:44.for coming in this evening. And the South Coast Proms takes place at
:24:44. > :24:47.Whale Island in Portsmouth this Friday and Saturday. Doors open
:24:47. > :24:51.from five o'clock. Adult tickets are �20, with the money going to
:24:51. > :24:57.the Royal Navy and Royal Marines Charity. More details online at
:24:57. > :25:01.southcoastproms.com. I will be hosting it and Kirianne
:25:01. > :25:11.is also going to be there. It is an outdoor event and we need the

:25:45. > :25:51.those downpours. But look at the Greens and delays out towards the
:25:51. > :25:55.east. Plenty of heavy downpours there. They have left us and moved
:25:55. > :25:59.to the east coast. I think for tonight we have some drier and
:25:59. > :26:05.cooler conditions. For the remainder of this evening, we will
:26:05. > :26:08.see one or two bits and pieces of patchy rain and drizzle at times.

:26:36. > :26:42.from the West as the day goes on. Temperatures a bit cooler than
:26:42. > :26:48.today. Highs of 20 degrees. That is average for this time of year.

:27:12. > :27:17.weekend. We should stick with the dry conditions and the outside

:27:21. > :27:25.should see some sunshine, for the most part pleasant and fine. That
