That won't change before too much longer watch this space there will be a Northamptonshire day and it will be on a Sunday and we will be looking forward to being part of it here on the morning show b.b.c. Radio Northampton 12 minutes past 10 being the time. I got a telly I'm a very proud daddy this morning very proud indeed I don't have children but I do have a job. I was and I took my to Bradwell field yesterday where they were having a dog show for animals in need based out a little story we just went for a bit of a move to be honest with you not intending to put Max into the dog show but there was a class for the dog that the judge might like to take home with him. And just on the off chance for the fun of it we did he. Took my ex into the ring you said hello to anyone and everyone and she walked off with best. Dog So the judge would like to take her 1st place so proud so proud red roses at home. It is the small things in a day oh and yes the Ashes are going on there's a bit of competition there too. Good to have you along great b.b.c. Radio Northampton. A celebration of heritage coming up next. On b.b.c. Radio Northampton because the 6th annual Nin Valley Festival is taking place in September. Next month doesn't time fly. I'll be finding out what it has to offer very soon here on b.b.c. Radio Northampton 1st though Huey Lewis and some news. In the jury of. The. It's great. I am. Huey Lewis am. Am still no I was something we decided we'd try and courage and fortunate glad not to say so this was underlying it although we're talking about the heritage of the name Valley at the moment it was initially a toys and left wing still keep a 1000000000 people in the air was an entirely and it's gone now so the challenge of a share weight stretches from some smart people person to them and Sally we started Pete on the 14th of September to slash in $42.00 whether we had to come for the finale so we started there they share and incorporate if you have a teacher open days the National have it as well so with that title do. The nation then Valley and given the length of the name valley as it applies to Northampton share and then going on into Cambridge here just exactly what easy what makes up a destination and valley ass as a as a as a festival through the days that but it runs well because everything we've got hit the fish air to the cinema so I can family food and drink and history music nature walk it literally Copas everything you can possibly think of you know it's snowing so that people can show what we've got in the district we often don't do things on our doorstep and there is so much out there that we that we can go into if there's solely the work of her parents district council or all of us on board as well lot like destination and valley know there's lots of lots of partners involved especially my own part should learn and Skype and I'm Skype partnerships game which and have a touch of trade i Phone did us for 5 years that weren't This is our 2nd year but we were all different groups heritage groups and individuals it's across it's across the board Ok now the festival itself is the 14th the 22nd you said it starts in pay to bring Are there any particular highlights that people should consider traveling to given that the name Valley does run all the way up to and including Northampton itself and beyond in the opposite direction to. The really John was a fantastic program of $100.00 over $0.14 a share so let's go through the move would just be silly but you know that everything from that walk she can go weekly in high school trees you can learn to fish he can on healthful. Printing workshops. Going to tools all the his student museums are doing things from all over the district hidden tools Cyclon. I'm just looking at least in front of me it's just amazing the things that we cover within the area where we have such a wealth of entertainment it's unbelievable this is the 6 years ahead at the start is there every day. Destination Maine Valley has actually changed the tourism and therefore the economy of the name Valley since he started 5 years ago almost definitely I think we started off was about 5000 visitors estimate the figures that we collected this year we're looking at 31 and a half 1000 fists last year that's quite some turnout it is an amazing turn up it really is yeah and when you consider the arrival of things like Russian Lakes for instance which is a big part of the economy albeit And I appreciate entirely that it's aided that is down towards trade that is down towards business but you've also got the lakes and you've got the ecology just behind Russian lakes that is there would you say that that is a jewel as far as the then Valley is concerned because some people blow hot and cold over it does it go in you know they just celebrated their 2nd birthday and you know been down there you can see how that site grows and the same with the sweet with a grain as well and we finish up it back in their home for May we finish up the standing nights on the 22nd September where you can come in the censors so that's going to be history of the time from the locals I came to all the way to present I see can an archway in x. Sounds a bit lethal to me but I'm sure it's going to be a certain day yet let's hope that no actually start bouncing back out towards the thrower but you mention that you've got a few left support from Heritage Lottery Fund and then you've got 5 years' worth of funding we're about to go through unity change so it's no hands District Council as it stands is going to change does that mean that the event is still safe because of the funding or will it will it change with the change of unitary bodies it is already on our calendar so it will it will move into the industry as soon as she hands the still sound sound over into the entry or go with it. Destination Valley Greenland ice or things will transfer over as well as sponsorship so yes we will cope with those extreme cases Well fascinating. How it all keys in really because you go and international festival going on just up the road you've got destination and valley and it's festival going on from the 14th to the 22nd it all sounds rather mild on one when all of a this is a great opportunity to celebrate what the the low lying area of the county has to offer one way or another it is you know it's just something we're so proud of and think how you know it didn't start with just a little bit of a suggestion just a weekend and it's just it really has been a lot of death and some staff members on the public to help support them and we thank them for that and we hope we can you know continue to go on that there's this nobody else is on on the information that's coming out programs are available they're going to be distributed around all sounds ship if she came shipment Kane's and all the local outlets parks to send us live with that Sacha of course you can go on the map you can e-mail for information as well and that's w w w dot men Valley dot net you. Know Valley don't know that info in Holly dot net or the 6 and then Valley Festival running info at noon Valley dot net If you want to go an e-mail and get the details for yourself counselor Sarah peacock from East Northamptonshire district council and of course from defamation in valley itself a lot of work going in for the 6 the 5 under their belts already a day off for you today Sarah.

Radio New York. Times and being left way way way behind when it comes to electric car charging points plain bays in trying to grasp it. Is to live it should be because it was so far behind Michael's being on he says according to research is everyone changed to electric cars we wouldn't have enough electricity to run. For a big break before it was that the I tended to be cool of the idea as it was being said that I said I was hungry and he told me to tell you to get me a sandwich exactly what they say still true 3 the b.b.c. Radio news and certain things that you learn by listening to this radio station let me tell you Wayne by being back in the usual place tomorrow from 3 here on b.b.c. Radio Northampton and they will be his rewind I keep calling it the retro rewind because it sort of drops off the tongue quite nicely when I'm sitting in for him doing that again before too much longer here on b.b.c. Radio Northampton but Wayne and his own eclectic take on life the universe and everything including if being on on a hamburger Wasn't that what John f. Kennedy said at 1031 being the time and it's b.b.c.

Radio Northampton if you celebrating a birthday today congratulations you celebrate with some reason Me well known people actually Barack Obama the former president of the United States POTUS He's 58 today Meghan Markle as walls now the Duchess of Sussex She's 38 today the fashion luggage manufacturer born in 821 lives until 1892 it would have been his birthday today Billy Bob Thornton the Hollywood actor 64 member him main. Was it love Actually I think was largely business where he was the president of the United States not a very nice one either Elizabeth the Queen Mum bless up born on this day in 1900 finally left us she did it in style in the middle of a Saturday afternoon when radio stations and television stations across the land was staffed purely by sports stuff it confused the living daylights out of lots of people. She had absolute style What a lovely Lady Elizabeth the Queen Mother born on this day in 1900 Lee Mark the comedian is 51 now starring in movies on the big screen Horrible Histories and it was on the broadcaster and news cast is 49 and if you remember the days of the Venn diagram from school when you would have been taught about the Venn diagram with 2 or more circles and where they crossed over the then diagram the mathematician John then who was involved in all of that ball on this day in 1834 Stick with us you will learn things here on b.b.c. Radio Northampton killer Ange is going to be with me to look at the papers and his reaction to some of those stories in a few minutes here on b.b.c. Radio Northampton before that yesterday we had some fun with a topical tease on this one the video assistant referee has been introduced to the mediæval sport of general sting so gentle sting is now very much in the 21st century alongside football and take place in cricket now where Knights charge and 8 other charger on their mounts with their lances video technology is going to be see used to see who's been hit and where they've been hit it isn't enough just to unseat the opposing writer the technology has been trialled in a tournament which took place this week at Pendennis Castle in Cornwall and never a Kennedy was there for b.b.c. Radio Northampton when 2 horses a country into each other 30 miles an hour I mean it's a target 30 centimeters by 30 centimeters and the knots at no point can see their own launce and in the action happens in a split 2nd it's very hard to tell exactly what may have hit the knots always think they've hit the highest scoring thing and in a competition where you might only break 2 or 3 lances each single point is critical and make a vast difference to the outcomes it's very handy to know exactly what actually happened Ok Say would you as joust is actually called for the assistant referee to have a look at things and we won't be calling because we'd call every single time and argue everything because. Quite competitive hour not to marshal will be calling when he's not sure what has happened right so you don't have a puzzle referees in jest and you have Marshals so when he's not sure he can then go and look at the technology Well let's speak to one of the people who's brought the technology here and that said Felix case he's from Hawkeye you may remember that name you may think I did that name from Wimbledon yes the same kind of technology that they're using to explains me a little bit more about why this is being used and how you've adapted your technology to work well yeah we're obviously very excited to be part of this just thing most people nost tennis cricket and obviously football more recently so I'm really excited to be able to bring that technology to jousting and basically yeah we've got a simple set up here which consists of 2 cameras either end of the of the 2 and we look at the horses coming on to us basically filming what happens in the Me can use our technologies to replay pause and rewind and I say you might have to slow it down a bit because these horses charge is such a right well exactly yeah that's what we're doing so we're we've got the official with us and we'll pause it on the point of contact so we can see exactly where that Lance has opponent when it says speak it to mark so we're a commentator also here from English heritage which is that we don't spend Dennis Cass I mean this is something else is that I never thought I'd see the day where such a 21st century technology was needed in such an old sport Absolutely it's an old sport but it is England's original and 1st national sport and here in English heritage we are passionate about justin and we know your listeners will be too when they come up here and indeed to other English heritage of course was to watch this incredible spectacle now I know when I watch the football or if I've watched the tennis it does get really exciting when v.a.r. Comes into play especially for the commentators they get they could be obviously they've got their own views they've seen what's happened and sometimes they don't always agree with the v.a.r. Decision I mean let's be quite exciting for you as well watching the match Absolutely yes. It's a 15th century sport with a 21st century technology called twist so I'm really excited to see what happens certainly as far as the just itself yes it is an incredible mix of drama color speed pace to my mind it is the finest sport is the original sport the sport of kings and that is why English heritage is so passionate about treating it as a professional sport trying to involve the International Olympic Committee getting limply athletes like Tori Pendleton involved it's a serious affair jousting into the Olympic canal van thought Mark Selwood from English Heritage ending that report by UNAMI Kennedy so the visual of the virtual assistant referee video assistant refereeing they are from Hawkeye being brought to bear with one of the oldest sports from the 15th century very much into the 21st century I wonder whether they're going to be a limit to the number of challenges that jousters can put on to Hawkeye like they have at Wimbledon. Just go on a quarter to 11 now. And show. I am so glad. Without you we are with him he's joined me in the studio came out and is with me he's a bit of a broadcaster he's a businesswoman in The Zone right by you asking about gold there's not much that he doesn't know. Gold let me tell you but he's a real jazz fan I'm surprised I was expecting a turtleneck sweater this morning. Yes it's not quite like that it's not it's not you know I mean or more the modern Well it is the. Better it probably are you know like the shorts on there what I know about that I'm sorry it's a good job this is radio and you can tell it straight yeah I can yeah I can imagine a nice What we've done is ask him to have a look at least papers today and it's his reaction to the stories that he has found not necessarily to do with politics not necessarily to do with the possibility of dams bursting not necessarily to do with Donald Trump just whatever came up wants to pull out of the papers which otherwise you might go ahead and miss So what are we going to start right I am going to start off with a bit of a sad note really long form passed away yesterday at the age of 64 cancer with yes it was leukemia now that's close to my heart because I've got to look a me more say over and same leukemia as Joe Horn has or had now I've been through came out which we all know isn't very very good but I'm on a new alternative treatment something called I broods an ape right and it's just 3 capsules every morning no so I defects thing I have to say see I wouldn't know that you got leukemia all the areas there yes I just might have. That sense of the way and we don't leave your that. Long entertain so many people he appeared at Rowland. Mother bless her passed away 2 years ago she used to go all over the country to go and say she was in the front throwing bunches of flowers and I don't think she threw any knickers but he was a kind of modern day down in a room he was and he was a singing impressionist and you know she stands I don't know where the note in knowing 60 knowing on the program what was it called now bailing me to you said. You know she's no genie show me time how do you know if you're of a certain age like I am you remember that that's how we started down 6 you know in 74 and he used to really pack I mean I mean he was a big big night he was a very big now I mean it was just literally it was packed where everyone played in one neighbor as well the ideal restaurant that as was in the day. But if you're in and you're an entertainer you entertain wherever there are people to be and yes I definitely anywhere and everywhere I always got the impression he was a very approachable man yeah I mean I've never met him and never seen him to see it's not my cup of tea but you know I can only go by what mother said he was brilliant you know what we lost him to cancer you know the one she's going to be very sad very very sad quite a lot of bitchery is being written in the paper so we wish your long lost great entertainer all really really was so that's in the papers this morning which one of you take it from that was from the Daily Express Ok honey Express he wants to look at scripture we say all right what else. I thought this was all either but 3 more may have been identified wait as part of the team on the Great Train Robbery really from many many moons ago decades ago yeah for in from the sixty's on to say. I want a gentleman Danny Pembroke but they've identified him he passed away in 2016 . Clubs when they were in the farmhouse on t.v. Now or the money he wore gloves so he was never identified they did interview him but they released him without charge he said they found $3.00 evenings one yet they don't go into naming the other straight they're saying Freddy Samson is a part of the underworld sort of cover guy well they don't say he's one of the other 3 right but they only Lynch one of the 3 So is this is this now. Sort of reporting after the event because it was from the 1960 Sausalito to do something about but I think the fact he's passed away he is a little bit late now for that one but the other 2 if they're alive they could with all this time later. Hard one to call because you know I know plays do. Cases years and years on but I think they've got the main ringleaders in there but that time you know I think the case it showed Now fascinating that the river also you know dress and it's just one of those you know the Great Train Robbery is one of the great things fascinating that the the journalists are able to write it up though and bring if you like a new lease of life to the story and it's a little tiny sidebar story which papers out of you know it was the Sunday Mirror Sunday Mirror Ok it's coming out couple couple more. Woman's forgotten old boy has just sold 422-0000 pound. It's an old Chinese bubble from the 1722 to the same thing 35 digits sounds like something from flog it yes I mean how many people who got these little things took to weigh in the cupboards Yeah I'd love to you or you see these people going to cabbage house buying something 50. Sales for thousands I'd love to fall into. A bargain find I do like a good bargain but I've never found anything that's worth anything you know so the message in all of this is look at what you got in the last look at what's gathering don't get I mean they were just clearing out to move hence and they took it to an end state dealer and he said he thought it was worse perhaps 20000 pounds but it later sold 422-0000 people even 20000 pounds would be an item of a turn here to 40 something like 200 to put a 2 in front of that 20000 definitely laugh a lovely nice way to look forward towards later. Life or air definitely. Fancy a nap in the afternoon say is that men and lonely clique more likely to have an afternoon nap. For 3 women only 17 percent of women are likely to have no afternoon nap so what is the point that they have identified from all of this why is it the men more of a nap than the later perhaps because now I'm not going to say I was going to say perhaps casus men work that little bit harder going to be massing by going back to when you leave you can't say things like that but they do say men you know they say a good 2030 minute sort of parent app does you I have to say I get about half past 5 every morning to go off and gone to do work from somewhere else and I have to say that if I don't get a snooze in the afternoon I'm in trouble my grandfather used to have a snooze my father would fall asleep on a Sunday afternoon absent Sunday lunch and we watching the Grand Prix together yeah and I'd see as I shut might say you're asleep Aren't you need take now I'm just resting my eyes yeah the problem was that he was snoring at the same time that I think about taking a nap and they say if you have half an hour you're going into a deep sleep which then makes you feel worse but 10 to 20 minutes half hour of the most that's perfectly alright huge a load of pain All right final one only a little much less friendly it's on its way back Yes spitting image is to read. To the British t.v. . Series in the us but they're going to be bringing it to the British t.v. And they're going to have parrot is obviously Brits Johnson Donald Trump. Margaret Thatcher obviously there was a web pretty much get tatted by Jeremy Corwin to sit next to her there's got to be a to resume a puppet surely there's got to be because it was Michael Heseltine from this county who went and bought his original spitting on me I think he did I think I've got that right if I got that right if I got there on Sunday will certainly tell me it was such a funny program. Such a funny funny program and we're lacking good comedies on t.v. Today well it looks as though spitting image could be back in all its glory in June but that bit when they had the the Reagan puppet and they had almost a sidebar story which was the president's brain is missing I'm not going to go into more of that because I'll get Miss often struggle with Donald Trump and he's not in the u.k. Any longer and that's a different story Kim lovely to have. The world of jazz still resounds to your dulcet tones on a cheesy evening Northamptonshire County Community writing idea yet also I'm told that you're spreading your when I've been approached by. A station and they want to string more Janet show good luck on going wider failed. Fabulous.
