I hope that CIC is working in Leicestershire and also in South Gameshire, started two years ago. We are working, we provide support to the people who are working towards the poverty. So hope CIC stands for hope against poverty. So that's the way we are standing. So we provide support for people who are going through hardships. So right now in South Gameshire we do food projects. We have a community shop in the Cambon hub. And also we did the Worm Hub and today is the last day of the Worm Hub. And we also provide one-to-one support. We also are a trusted partner for South Gameshire County Council. And today I'm going to talk about the projects that we provided Christmas hampers this year. This was funded by South Gameshire Community Chase Grant. So we've been awarded £2,000 for the project. So this is our second hamper project. In 2021 we delivered 36 food parcels across the South Gameshire. So that was funded by Hope CIC. And this year we've been granted £2,000. And we managed to deliver 56 parcels across the South Gameshire. So we allow our residents and the community to nominate who are deserved for the food parcel. We also accepted self-nominations. And we delivered them to their doorsteps. And I have included some of the feedbacks. We had a lot of feedbacks and I included on the documents two of the feedback that we received from our beneficiaries. And also I wanted to talk about the process of the grant application and how it went. So I'm really grateful to all the staff and the advisory committee for giving this opportunity for us to run this project. So the process was very straightforward and they were very helpful including all the staff. And especially I need to thank Jane for volunteering for us to make the parcels. And the parcels were actually, we made them to, we tried our best to tailor made the parcels. So we got the details of the families, our number of members or if there's any kids we included the requirements. And also some of the surprising parcels were there. So when we knock on the doors for the people who didn't know that the parcels were coming, that was amazing feeling that we got. And we had some very good feedbacks from our disability staff that they delivered the parcels. And it's very hard touching moments. We had a lot of people came out when they see the parcels and the hampers. They were very emotional and even we couldn't bear that. So without without hugging them. So they're the moments actually. So it's very amazing. The staff wise, I mean that when it comes to the funding process, I'm glad that we are a small organisation work around trying to do best for the community. But when it comes to the process, it's very grateful that they are very concerned about what we're doing. And especially what I want to mention that most of the problems that organisations like us are facing is working about filling these grant applications. We don't have much resources and time to do that. So we have only a few paid staff members who normally I do everything. So but compared to the other funders. So the staff, especially a man is very helpful because they came back. If there's any if there's any lack of information, they they contacted us rather than saying at the end of the. So most of the funders what they do is at the end of the period they says out, you haven't given this information. Even though we had this information, they maybe they don't have time to do that. But I'm really thankful to all the staff for getting back to us and asking for the information, which is very helpful. And I would like to thank all of the south camp. So the district council staff members, all the councillors, especially Emma Dry and Jane Mountain and Chris for working with us. I know he's new to the office, but he does amazing job. I'm glad that we had somebody like him. And my special thanks goes to Jason, Jason Clark. He's the one who helped us at the beginning. So that was the encouragement actually. I'm really glad that I met him and all the councillors for all the maybe. Sorry if I don't mention any of the names, but I'm glad to work with you. And I like to continue this project. Hope you will help us for the next year as well. Thank you very much. And if you have any questions, I'm happy to answer. I was just going to say that as well. So if you're happy, I'll answer a couple of questions if anyone's got any. First of all, I'd just like to say thank you very much for coming in. That was really lovely. And you know, while you were talking, I was looking at your hand out here. And I know that I was with Sue and I looked at each other. The quality of the presence and the hampers that were given out is just stupendous. It really is. It's a credit. I think I'm not going to speak as an individual. I'm going to speak as a whole and offer our thanks and gratitude for what you do, your team. And it just makes it really clear when we make a decision to help a particular group to do whatever they do. This is perfect. Thank you. I'm really grateful. Thank you very much. So I'm going to hand the floor over to my colleagues if they've got any questions for you. Of course. Senator. So I'd just like to say I'm impressed that you've made a team that works very well. And I'm impressed that you tried to individualise the gifts. And I appreciate the fact that you have put the effort into doing this. As do we all, I'm sure. Thank you. First of all, I'm going to apologise for being late to everybody, particularly to Mahesh for missing his presentation. But thank you for it. You've done a fantastic job, Mahesh. And I hope you keep going on doing what you're doing. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. It's really good to see that what we decide here turns out to be so good for a large number of people. And that they really do appreciate your work. So thank you. And that just leaves me to say thank you very much for coming. So sorry. Finally, I want to invite you all to join us for the fish and chips meal that we are serving today at the church at Wormhub because it's the last day of the Wormhub. So we got about over 150 registered already registered 15 members to have come and have a free fish and chips or chicken. And the vegetarian option is there. So please come and we'll be serving from 11 to 2 o'clock at the church today. So if you have time, I'd like to invite everyone to come and join us. That's really kind of what I was actually going to say. If you wanted to stay for the rest of the community meeting, but it sounds like you've got a mountain to climb. I can't thank you enough for coming along the hitch and have a safe trip home. And thank you very much indeed for coming. Thank you. OK, colleagues. Bill, I said that when you popped up, have you any conflicts of interest with the agenda at all? The over play group, the youth group submission. Obviously that's my village. I know the people who run it, but I'm not a part of it. I do support it, but I'm not a part of it. So I think it's just a case of declaring that it's non pecuniary. Is that OK? No, that's fine. I think everybody else is OK. Right. OK, thank you. Emma, so we did write some number five, which is community chase. Is that your concern? Yes. Thank you. So we have eight applications to discuss today. Six of which are our non-wing fence applications. Just to note, if these applications are all funded today, the total deficit will be 8129.59. And this actually includes the £1,493 of unspent funds that we got back from our COVID recovery grants, just to be aware. OK, so page nine, our first application is Melbourne Bowls Club. They would like a metal bar grill, which tracks into a box above it to effectively seal off the bar area to deter and minimise the effects of any break-ins. They'd also like to replace the aging rink markers that are used to separate the rinks when bowling with new equivalents and to provide an external storage box. Total costs are £1,264.60, all of which are being requested from the community chest. Thank you. And I think, as Bill, this is my patch. This is my village. And I have nothing to do with Bowls Club, per se, on the fact that they've been there for a long time and do a fabulous job. Colleagues, anyone with any comments, please? Can't I roll you? I don't see any reason why they shouldn't be... Thank you. As I understand it, it's a long lease from the parish council, the club youth centre. And therefore, these facilities need to be managed properly by the people that use them. And I'm most happy to support it. Happy to support this application. Thank you very much. Happy to support. Thank you. So, page 10, we have Magpus air ambulance. And they provide pre-hospital emergency care in the air or on land. So just to recap, basically maintaining a sufficient stock of pharmaceuticals is essential for their work. Around £135 covers the costs of consumable equipment used to anaethatise and ventilate one patient. Just another fact, 50% of all call-outs are in Cambridgeshire alone. And in 2022, that amounted to over 750 times that they came out. Breaking it down further, they've said that at least 54 call-outs last year were to South Cam's parishes. They have requested £2,000 from the community chest. They've provided a total cost because it's an ongoing kind of thing. They just constantly need pharmaceuticals. And some of our parishes have actually contributed as well. And you can see those in the bullet points there as well. Thank you. I don't know if anybody else has had the experience of this organisation turning up from above. I've been to Melbourne in my tenure, actually, as a councillor. They've had three times I've had them into Melbourne for a serious accident, on my own or the other, the people have heard themselves. I can't extol their virtues enough, frankly. They're for the grace of people saying I didn't end up in it myself. But I fell off that roof earlier this year. So, over to you, colleagues. Anyone? Councillor Rippus. Yeah, this is life-saving support here. So I think we should be funding this, doing all that we can to help really important work. Councillor Hargarage. This ambulance is privately. The ambulance is privately run, not by anything to do with the NHS. It's charity. It's fully funded charity from donation and grant application, if I recall. So who is monitoring this? I'm just asking. I have no issue with it. They've been around for a long time and have a reputation to die for, so to speak. Because they need more funding. I support this, but they need more permanent funding. That's all I'm saying. I think this is indicative, should we say, without going into the realms of that arena. But I think this is indicative across the spectrum for anything like these charities. Look at lifeboats, look at everything like that. They all need funding. Councillor Lenton. I would support my pass at every opportunity. And I believe, if I remember correctly, they have recently started to deliver service after dark as well. Which is an additional need, as it were, an additional cost. So I would very much support this application and encourage others to run events to support them. Councillor Hanlon. Very briefly, yes, 100% support. It would be nice to see more parish council supporting them too, wouldn't it? There's enough of us in the parish councils. I'm assuming, from what I've heard in the room, this is a unanimous support. Thank you. Next. Okay, so page 11. This is Homestart Royston, Buntingford and South Cambridgeshire. They support vulnerable local families struggling with diverse and often complex issues. They've set up a new specialised family support group opened at Meldrith Village Hall in January. Some of the families face particular challenges with rural isolation, often resulting in poor mental health. What they would like to do is something called Summer Term 2023, which will run from the 17th of April to the 17th of July and is comprised of 13 weekly sessions of two hours. It's expected that eight to ten families will attend. So for this specific summer term, total costs are £2,384.07 and £2,000 has been requested from the community chest. Just to be aware, they also received full funding of £13,711 for the latest round of service support grant funding commencing in April. We have support from Councillor Hales and Councillor Sally Ann Hart. Thank you, Emma. Colleagues, if I may add, I've had a little experience of this. It's obviously in Meldrith based. If I recall, it was a few years back, they used to get some fairly decent funding from above. I believe that it was literally in the stroke of a pen they lost a lot. That was nationally, I think, anything like that. Just a whole lot went. So they went from being able to do quite a lot to nearly nothing. They upped their game and fundraising and stuff like that. Melbourne Fates has given a lot of money in the past where it could. It's such an essential service as it really is. It's a one-on-one, so to speak. Okay, I look at you guys. Catherine? I was around at the time when things were chopped and it was pretty dramatic. My feeling in this current situation where an awful lot of childcare facilities are being cut was going to be an even greater. Need because of the cost of childcare. So I think this is admirable. Okay, I'm looking around the room and I think we've got nods from everybody doing this. Just one point. Helping with mental health, which is obviously an issue and hasn't until now maybe had any sort of parity with physical health. I think it's really important that this charity obviously is organisation. Really supports that in the child and parents adult mental health. So yes, I do support. Thank you. Page 13. We have Over Youth Cafe. This is actually had a privilege of actually visiting this back in January. I was very impressed. It was set up in September 2022 to support and engage young people. At the moment they've got 45 members aged 10 to 15. The volunteers who I met, they come from a range of backgrounds with numerous skills. And they also held a consultation with over 40 young people. That was back last year and this is how they would like their youth group to run. So obviously engaging with young people, which is fantastic. Regular activities include pool, table tennis and crafting activities when I was there. They had a bike repair workshop. So they have obviously people coming in to talk to them as well, which is great. The total project costs are... There's a phased approach that they want to run this. For this phase are £5,060. They requested £2,000 from the community chest. And that's for costs towards revenue and also an outdoor shed, which would obviously increase what they could store at the youth group. So we have two councillors, including Councillor Bill Hanley, that are in favour. And what can we catch in the middle? Thank you Emma. I'll cancel the handling and then cancel it. I'll constitute. Yes, something that really stood out to me was this post pandemic and help with that age group. And they've really suffered it's becoming more evident now. I think that preteen and teens age group has struggled and is struggling now with social interaction because of the pandemic and being out of school online lessons. And this just seems like a really good way of trying to help a really difficult situation, which is impacting lots and lots of young people. And so, yes, utterly and totally support it. Thanks, Jude. Bill. OK. So here to recent events in my area. When I looked at this, I feel it's something that maybe can be taken forward in my area as well. So I'm totally for this. I think it's very well thought out. That's lovely. Thank you. I'm sorry. I was going to say it's good to see that they've managed to recruit volunteers because getting people to come forward to do anything in this day and age seems to be quite difficult. And yes, they do need training and things and putting things in place. This is good money spent. If that's OK. I mean, I said at the beginning, this is obviously in my village and obviously I support it. But I would like to say that the people who've set this up are really dynamic. You know, great, a lot of skills that they bring to it. And it's just a fantastic thing. And as Sunita said, I think it's actually, you know, in supporting this and maybe we can show this as a model for other villages to say, well, this is what you can do if you try. So, yeah, 100% for me. Thank you very much. I said I think round the room, so that's good. That's another one under your belt. Thank you. OK, page 16. We've got let's run girls limited. This supports women to lead healthier, happier and more connected lives with the provision of free walking and running sessions in 12 different locations across Cambridgeshire and Essex. They would like to launch a let's run girls group in Duxford. Total project costs for this would be £1,650, all of which has been requested from us. And this would include funds for fitness qualifications, training, equipment, publicity and marketing. They generate a small amount of revenue from running online fitness classes as well as other fundraising activities. And this funds the ongoing staff costs. I have a question. Is this exclusively for females? Or is it open to anybody? If it is exclusive to females, then I have no problem with that. But is that for a reason for personal safety, if you like, in that environment, you have to encourage just females of any age to take part in fitness and for a confidence builder? I'm not aware of the specifics. I suppose maybe the abilities, if they're running with men, it might be that the men might be a little bit faster. I don't want to generalise, but if it's a confidence issue, they might just feel more happy in a group with other females. It's just their model. I'm not sure. As I said, I don't have an issue with it at all either way. It would be nice if they'd put it up in more detail. It's the ethos, if you like. Any colleagues that account for Rippith? I support this from the point of view. Actually, that is an all-female running group. I don't know the stats off my head, but from the age of early teens at school, girls becoming women often become very shy of actually doing any exercise at PE. That sounds like a massive generalisation, but it is a trait. I think the fact that it's a female group only really supports them to get out and exercise. Whereas, for whatever reason, lots of society reasons, boys and men seem to be more confident in any case, but I do understand what I'm saying. It's a generalisation, but I think that's an element of truth. Actually, this was on the television on the sky. They're not this particular, but the subject matter. That's why I asked the question, because it's actually very important, because you raise the point that girls grow and they become automatically shy as they go through their development at school, and they tend to stop school because of the obvious... That is a factual situation. I'm very much in favour of this. I just want to make sure that when these people are such as these students of that application, they do need to be a bit more detailed, I think, because whilst it's nice, it's just nice to know the background. In support of the girls only, I have known women running not many, but the few who run on the cycle path in order to gain fitness, having had what is abusive language at them, which is quite discouraging and inappropriate. But our community council has just got these times when they invite people to come and run with them, and it seems to be succeeding. So is this like a personal training club that they're aiming for? And they've got a wide reach, so I don't know if people will actually... I don't know these areas. How will they get to one central location? Oh, sorry. Caps, Anna. I just want to share my naivety or my lack of knowledge here, but it says let's run girls limited, and it's a company. It's a social enterprise, but is it a company in the sense that we would expect? In other words, are people being paid to run it? That's one thing, and the other thing I'm slightly concerned is that neither the parish council nor the district council appear to be supportive. They're not supportive, but they haven't committed on the report at least. That also slightly rings alarm bells. Councillor Enton. It says it's a company limited by guarantee, and it gives its company number on the bottom of page 16. So it is a company. I'll give you some insight. Melbourne Hub is a limited by guarantee company and a charity. It's the same thing. The limited by guarantee side of it is essentially your trading arm. You're able to trade as a charity, whereas a charity wouldn't necessarily be able to. I think... I mean, Judith and I, and Senita have ruled in agreement that they're supportive of this. Is there just a little bit more information that we would like as a committee? Just a few tees and eyes and what have you? I would be much more comfortable if we had a comment from the parish council and from Peter Macdonald. I mean, basically I'm supportive. I just want reassurance. Okay, that's fine. So we'll go back for getting our comments from local authority and district councillors and I'll scammer if she can glean a little bit more information, ethos backgrounds, et cetera, et cetera. We're not saying no. We just expect property fairness to next month. Is that okay with everybody? Is that okay with that? Thank you. Page 17. We have a biodiversity application from Friends of Duxford Greenspaces. So they would like to increase biodiversity by increasing the hedge and tree habitats on the site of Duxford allotments. This is parish council land that is accessible to the public. They will be using native plants and appropriate native understory and successional trees into the wooded areas and for wildlife. They'll also install bird boxes, bat boxes, beetle hotels and hoverfly in the goons. Ongoing maintenance of the hedge plants should not be required after the first year, but regular checks will be made in the spring of next year. Similarly, checks will be made for the trees. That will be for the first three years. They'll monitor those. They'll obviously water in the dry periods. The total project costs are £3,822, of which 50% is being requested from the community chest and that's £1,911. The remaining 50% will come from the parish council. We have councillor Peter Macdonald in support. Lovely thing. This is quite a detailed response and the detailing about what's been spent where and when. So this is quite nice. Any comments, colleagues? I just said it looks really good and the sort of thing that I think we should be supporting. The parish councillor, he's stumping up the other half as well, so he says he's up 50-50 between us and the parish. That for me is persuasive anyway, the fact that the parish council is so supportive. OK, I'll thank you. We're nodding. So, on to page 19, we have a community-led plan application. This is from Eldersea Parish Council and they would like to print flyers of their parish plan back sheets showing actions and achievements as well as village information leaflets to advertise residents of village groups, facilities, walks and services, etc. Total project costs are £270 and £220 has been requested from the community chest. Parish council will fund the £50 shortfall councillor Peter Sandford and councillor Mark Howe in support. So, yes. Thank you. Thank you. I'm not sure about this because surely we don't normally support parish council. They can issue their own precept or is eldersly so small that it doesn't have a precept. It just seems to me that most parish councils, when they're doing a local plan or a village plan, usually pay for their own advertising and surveying and so on. And I didn't think it usually came out of grant money. It's actually not a very big sum. It's the sort of thing that parish council will hold in reserves anyway for them. I agree with Councillor Arington, really. The only thing is is eldersly one of those councils, parish councils that cannot raise their own precept if it's possible? I don't know. Maybe we could check that out. Sorry, Councillor. Can I ask, maybe Emma knows this information, so how many electors do they have? Off the top of my head, I think, I want to say about 400. It's not that many. I visited them about a year ago and I did encourage them to apply for the community chest because obviously we have this ring fence amount. I think it's around, because it's right at the top of my page. But I think it's £46,000 or something. We got left in the funding pot and it does say in the criteria that it can be used for anything associated with the plan. That could be printing costs and things. So it kind of fits the criteria. But I take on board obviously your comments as well. That's what I was going to say. We have funding here for the ability for parishes to access to bring forward plans. Is that neighbourhood as well? No. Community left panel. I think really we've got that budget sitting there doing it for 220 quid. I think we might want to get rid of 220 quid of £46,000, shall be sure. I think it's nice. Obviously the village is taking making the effort to do a plan anyway, which is great. That will be my personal opinion. But if you have doubts. Thanks Emma, because that kind of confirms the policy behind it. And on this we seem to be kind of I don't want to say we are washing money. We've got more funds. Things like the community tests where it's very popular and we don't have so many funds left at the end of the financial year. But it does seem to exactly fit what that's meant for. Thank you. I'm willing to support this. We've already read that. Thanks. We have a deferred application on page 20. This is Steepham Warden Village Hall last month. They wanted to install solar panels on the roof of the village hall. It wasn't rejected obviously that recommendations were to suggest that the applicant applied for zero carbon communities funding. But I think because of timings they want to install these solar panels quite quickly. When I gave them the choice they said they would rather come back to community tests because of the turnaround. Because obviously with the zero carbon communities grant the need to leave is launching beginning of April I think it is. Isn't it I think? Yeah and then obviously I think it's two or three months but our decision will be made. We're talking a few months down the line so that's where it's coming back today. We've also got support I believe from Councillor Heather Williams since last committee meeting. Great. Just ask a question I mean it does appear that this would be something for the zero carbon communities funding but I do accept that their procedures are slightly longer or longer than ours do. Thinking outside the box I mean can we work it that we kind of support them and then ask the zero carbon community grant to transfer the money into our account just so that we get around that. I do appreciate that they want to get on with this and we don't want to stop them we don't want to discourage them but if the zero carbon grant fund can reimburse us that will be great. You've kind of taken the words out of my mouth you've actually you've taken the words almost out of my mouth because I was thinking I wonder if we could cross Charles this would be great. I'm not sure we can. The applications I think it's from early April to about the 5th of June I think if I recall it's quite quite specific dates isn't it for the zero carbon applications. So they won't even start the assessment process until after it's closed so by the time they've actually gone through the process it's going to be probably the back end of June early July and we are coming into mid-summer you've got to get it booked because the whole year is worth a generation by the time the zero carbon comes and that's if you win. I appreciate the job by doing if we go down the route that I've just suggested I mean we may be setting a precedent that we regret that's the only thing because you might get a lot more saying pay us and take it out of the zero pot. I think it's an abnormal idea what we'll do is we'll look at Emma now and we'll say we'll ask Emma if that's something that she could have a discussion with behind the scenes as to whether we can recoup our two grand. Emma, do you mind switching your mic off? I may be going to be a bit of a screw-chip I think actually it really is a zero carbon community grant application and you should wait and I just got this feeling that this has kind of happened before and John Williams is saying we can't really go over and it makes it quite difficult because they have separate pots I mean I don't want to speak for him and and indeed everybody might then come and say we really need our solar panels now maybe they just wait until it opens sorry I'm not quite as convinced by the we've got to happen in the next couple of months I do get the fact that summer's coming so hopefully there might be some sunshine but would you be sorry to interrupt you would you be kind enough to clarify the phrase summer's coming given today that he's chucking it down one hopes so but you never know Councillor Ensign well they want it's going to cost 12,000 they're only asking for 2000 from us they've got to find the other 10,800 whatever from somebody else and they don't appear to have asked for it yet so there is some delay already in the pipeline towards so I think on that sort of basis I don't think it's going to make too much difference if they have to wait and go through the eco grant system Councillor Innes they could also ask for more from the Councillor Carbon Communities funding in fact they could even request the full amount and it may be decided that yes they can have the full amount or part amount I just think it should go to the right funding pot I think I'm looking at Councillor Hanraj are you in agreement with all the comments that have been made Okey dokey I think then what we're going to do then we're going to say no thank you very politely and we are going to ask officers if they can go back to the applicant and say you do need to go through the zero carbon this is a classic case of and we wish you well with your application that looks like that's it that's correct yes brilliant thank you very much Emma it's really lovely right now colleagues the agenda item number six is the update for the dual leisure facility grant funding for 2022 this is the small sports centres of the south post community sports centres and what have you around south cams it was after Covid I think it was to encourage people back out to do sports and what have you we have two choices here if you want to talk about it in any great detail we're going to have to go into private session I'd rather not go into private session frankly I've never been a great fan of it so I am assuming that you've all read the reports and I think to summarise it looks like it's been a stonking success the money's been well spent sometimes there have been areas where people have not been able to do what they said exactly with that piece of funding but they've put it to another piece of equipment where it's worked out really well and then they've caught up afterwards with the funding that it was going to be so for my own part I think this is a terrific project I think it's had a 10 out of 10 frankly unless anyone disagrees with me and the floor is yours agree absolutely agreed in that case then if you don't mind we've noted the report and we'd just like to congratulate the officers who've ran with it and promoted it and have supported all the way through and long may it continue and hopefully we don't ever get COVID again or have been like it to be enough to do it again brilliant thanks right then it's the gender item 7 is next but I think before we go on to that because they know it's going to be closed in the meeting one of our one of our colleagues in our midst here Jonathan Moulton is just about to leave us he's deserting us frankly he's going to correct me if I'm wrong Jonathan Oxford City Oxford City Council their loss our loss there again and then he comes in the wrong way I've been practicing all morning not the slightly wrong way around but look I think Jonathan's a fantastic officer I'm going to make him go red and whatever you're here I'd hope you enjoy me and congratulate him on his new role over there and say that it's a sadness to see him go but frankly we're glad to see the back of him right now so that's that so thank you Jonathan for all your support for us especially myself and Sue sitting here because we've been blessed with officers helping us out so I'm really grateful for your help on my view so thanks and wish you really well thank you chair for your kind words we appreciate it and it has been a pleasure to work here for the last three and a half years I really love working with this committee it's a small committee but I think it does fantastic work for the community in South Cairns so yeah it's been an absolute pleasure thank you and Ciaran looks like you've got the reins now Lyn, it's over to you right on that note then colleagues can I? I just want to share with you something that happened on last Sunday I went to a barbecue run by Shedit who we have given money to and there was a chap there who said he'd lived in London and now lives in Barhill he said when I came to this place I was living in a grey world everything was black and grey and then he picked up his guitar and he had written and produced a song that was about how Shedit had changed his world to have colour in it and the things that brought him joy now and it was I thought that really brought him to me eyes and I just thought how I needed to share with you how much good we do in that sort of work of producing grants and helping people to do things that change people's worlds from black to colour so thank you thank you that was beautifully said thanks right okay so we are we're looking at the 27th of 28th of April is our next meeting so I wish you all a very safe trip home and all you people have been the thousands of you've been watching the live broadcast have a safe trip to the kitchen for your cup of coffee and biscuits
