Hello, its Peter here and welcome to Mondays Levy Letter. Its the start of another week, and if you did anything over the weekend I hope it went well. I hope youll be able to join me tonight on Look North at half past six. Well have all the days news and stories from our region. A government committee at Westminster says fortnightly refuse collections are not the answer to the nations recycling needs. Its what residents of North Lincolnshire have been telling us for over a year now of course. Do you think having heaps of rubbish outside your house for two weeks would make you recycle more? We'll be live in Scunthorpe, and we'll hear from London.
As rain continues to cause heartache for flood affected residents, we'll be in the East Yorkshire village of Gowdall to speak to people trying to get over the trauma, and worried about the future. And if you've ever dreamed of sailing around the world, or wondered what would make somebody want to do that, don't miss the result tonight of our competition to find a crew member for the Clipper Round the World Yacht Race. Somebodys dreams could become a reality in our once in a lifetime opportunity. It certainly sounds like an adventure. And as usual well get the weather forecast for our region, thats all coming up at six thirty tonight on BBC One. Thank you for all the emails and messages weve received at Look North recently, the floods are still dominating the topics of discussion. We had lots at the end of last week about people without insurance benefiting from government money, lots of people against that it would seem. We had a huge response on that, and dont forget we do read every single message, even if we cant respond to all of them. Keep the messages coming in. And of course if youre got anything you want mentioned in the Levy Letter, or any comments to make or pictures to send in, you can reach me on [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Chef I dont know if youre a fan of Gordon Ramsay, he seems to divide people a bit, either you love his foul mouthed, straight talking style, or you find him a bit over the top and full of himself. Well it seems no matter what you think of him, hes not a very good fisherman. Its emerged that Gordon faked footage of him bringing fish out of the sea on his cooking programme, making it look like hed caught them himself, when in fact the programme makers had a professional fisherman out on a boat twenty minutes before doing all the hard work. Im not sure its really important whether Gordon caught the fish or not to be honest, as long as he can cook them, and those who have been lucky enough to go to his restaurants say he can certainly cook. But as I said earlier, he seems to be someone who people like or dislike on his personality rather than his prowess in the kitchen. Well thats about it from me today, join me tonight for Look North at the usual time 6.30 on BBC One. If you know anybody whos not signed up the Levy Letter and you think theyd like one, send them along to our Look North website, www.bbc.co.uk/looknorthhull and they can find a link there to sign up for a free daily Levy letter. Hope you have a good day, bye for now.
