birthmark is the most what we had birthmark is the most important thing, our pub is very small and here we have a lot more room in the garden. how important is it that the 21st ofjune goes ahead? the problem for us is all the waiting _ the problem for us is all the waiting on tables, we have steps to come _ waiting on tables, we have steps to come up _ waiting on tables, we have steps to come up and down the garden to the rivers _ come up and down the garden to the rivers. �* ., , ., come up and down the garden to the rivers. �* ., i. , rivers. and are you struggling with staffin: ? rivers. and are you struggling with staffing? like _ rivers. and are you struggling with staffing? like everybody, - rivers. and are you struggling with staffing? like everybody, it's - rivers. and are you struggling with staffing? like everybody, it's hard| staffing? like everybody, it's hard to net staffing? like everybody, it's hard to get peeple _ staffing? like everybody, it's hard to get peeple who _ staffing? like everybody, it's hard to get people who really _ staffing? like everybody, it's hard to get people who really know - staffing? like everybody, it's hard l to get people who really know what they are _ to get people who really know what they are doing. so it to get people who really know what they are doing-— they are doing. so it is warm here toniuht they are doing. so it is warm here tonight but _ they are doing. so it is warm here tonight but i _ they are doing. so it is warm here tonight but i think _ they are doing. so it is warm here tonight but i think we _ they are doing. so it is warm here tonight but i think we just - they are doing. so it is warm here tonight but i think we just need i tonight but i think we just need that sunshine to come through over the next few days. i know a man who can bring it to you, tomasz schafernaker can provide some sunshine. indeed, it looks beautiful over the next few days, increasingly sunny to the weekend and we deserve it after weeks of misery from frost to
6:31 pm
wash—outs but today if you looked at the sky you would be forgiven if that optimism went a bit because it was under cloudy side, we had rain, so it was cloudy by the river but it's because a weather front has been stuck across the uk riding up against high pressure which is stopping weather fronts from coming through so nothing is pushing through so nothing is pushing through towards the east not so the weather front must day a death across the uk so that means through tonight and into tomorrow we still have the remnants of the last weather front for now, so cloudy morning and then brightening up a bit through the afternoon, so tomorrow i don't think it will be spectacular, there might be one or two showers here and there, some clouds in the sky but i think we will take it south through the afternoon you can see 21 in london, 20 in the lowlands of scotland and that high pressure which is settling
6:32 pm
things down is well and truly in charge of our weather into sunday so temperatures will be possibly hitting the mid 20s in one or two spots on sunday and beyond that it looks like the high pressure will continue to draw in one from the south and just like low pressure, high pushes are also vortices as a wind flow are random so the warmth from the south and 23 expected in liverpool, 23 in glasgow. is that warm enough for you? warm enough for you ? that's warm enough for you? that's more like it, thank you, thomas. and that's it from us. enjoy that sunshine. goodbye.

6:37 pm
not a failure, because coming to this stage is incredibly well done by the team and as an individual come about, you know, if you don't when it's, it will be, yeah, something that you don't really want to experience, but it does happen stop getting i think the champions league is a big green, titian, and for sure, as a brazilian, to have the opportunity to win and to lift the opportunity to win and to lift the trophy is a proud moments, but to enjoy this moment. you have to be resilient. the game, it's going _ you have to be resilient. the game, it's going to — you have to be resilient. the game, it's going to happen, and at the end, _ it's going to happen, and at the end. to — it's going to happen, and at the end. to try— it's going to happen, and at the end, to try to be ourselves and try to he _ end, to try to be ourselves and try to be ourselves and do a good thing. the

6:45 pm
to end their 7li—year absence from the top flight, and they lost out at this stage last year, while swansea are looking to return to the premier league after three years away. adam wild has this report. they call it the richest game in football, for the winners, it's worth much more than that. swansea and city fancier waving their team off to wimbley, the value of a place at domestic football's top table goes way beyond the price tag. swansea has been to wimbley on one before, victory in the playoff final a decade ago was for all involved a transformative moment. a change the course of my life commits a life—changing game. it was described then as £1 million game, but, it was more than that for us all. the season comes to an inevitable conctusion— the season comes to an inevitable conclusion for swansea city. the
