Hello, its Peter here, welcome to Fridays levy letter, weve made it to the end of the week. Whatever youve got planned for the weekend, I hope it goes very well indeed. Im looking forward to meeting quite a few people in the centre of Hull tomorrow morning. And today, well I hope youll be able to join me BBC 1 six thirty. Tonight well be talking to .
And also this weekend its the birthday of BBC Radio Lincolnshire, so Happy Birthday to them. One of the very first people on the station, over twenty years ago now, was national broadcaster John Inberdale. Ahead of the birthday weekend I shall be talking to John on the programme tonight. There will also be another celebrity guest, tune in later to find out who that is. Also tonight the weekend forecast with Paul. Welly Boots Can you believe it, the PC brigade have told us about the latest thing which can cause us danger. Theyre lurking in the sheds and under the stairs, just waiting for the moment to strike. Be afraid, be very afraid of Wellington boots. Wellingtons of all shapes and sizes are one of the major causes of accidents in and around the home. Theyre involved in an astonishing 7,000 visits to casualty in a single year. In most cases the wearer slipped while walking or pulled a muscle while putting them on, and then theres always the possibility of helping to remove someone elses welly and shooting backwards into a hard object when it comes off more easily than expected. Another seemingly harmless garment is the cardigan. Its responsible for nearly 1000 arrivals every year at casualty. Most of the injuries occur when the wearer has a strain dressing or gets baggy sleeves caught in doors. Others trip over cardigans after leaving them on the floor. So be warned this weekend, cardi! gans and welly boots are dangerous whatever next? Letters Thank you very much indeed for all the emails and letters for the Levy Letter, keep them coming in.

Women getting ready Women spend two years of their lives getting ready to go out, this is three times longer than men spend on grooming. No surprises there! On average it takes females nearly 90 minutes from showering to reaching the front door. Girls spend 30 minutes applying make-up, 24 minutes doing their hair and 26 minutes getting dressed what do you do for 26 minutes? A typical mans routine takes just 32 minutes form start to finish. Both sexes spend less time getting ready for work than they do for play, with men needing just 13 minutes to shower and shave before leaving for the office - it always takes me longer than that while women take 54 minutes to get dressed for work, it is still half an hour less than they do at the weekend. Men spend just 10 minutes deciding what to wear for a night out, thats more than three times longer than the 3 minutes it takes them to select a suit, shirt and tie for work. There we are women spend two years of their lives getting ready to go out. Guests Dont forget if youve got a guest youd like to see on the programme one day soon - if theyve got a connection with the area or if they come into the area and you know about it, give me the details and let me know and well try and get them on the programme.
