Hi there, and welcome to Tuesdays Levy Letter. Its Peter here. Something of interest for you perhaps that I thought I should share with you. bbc.co.uk/lincolnshire have got a link on their webpage straight to a web cam of the Crown Estates barn owl nest. The nest box is in a secret location near Lincolnshire and the picture is updated every five minutes! Youll be able to get a very unique view inside a barn owls nest. Although, actually all I could see was a white ball of fluff! I presume that was the baby barn owl!
I had an email this morning from J.M. Berry. They write, Dear Peter, I am hoping you can help me. A letter arrived this morning from a lottery sweepstake in Spain. I have heard of things like this and all they want are your bank details. Although it says if you want a certified cheque tick this box and leave out bank details. But some people may put their details down and I am worried. They say I have won 815 810 00 euros. Can you help? Well, thanks for getting in touch. We have looked at this problem before and some people can get conned by letters like this. Of course, you always have to be very careful with your personal details and never give out your bank details to anyone. Thanks go to J.M. Berry for that note and for highlighting that problem. Thank goodness you realised it was a scam! St Charles Borromeo Im not sure if you know about this little gem or if you can remember a piece Look North did last year about an incredible church in Hull. Its called St Charles Borromeo and its right in the centre of Hull near the New Theatre. Well, its apparently the oldest post-reformation Roman Catholic church in the city. Its incredible inside with beautiful paintings and ornate statues. So if you ever get a chance to take a look, then I really recommend it and there are some photos on the internet of it as well, so use a search engine to find out more. Well, its badly in need of restoration and Ive heard about a charity event to raise some money for its restoration. The Cottingham Singers have decided to help with fundraising and theyre joining forces with the Arterian Singers to perform Vivaldis Gloria in St Charles Church this Saturday. So good luck to both groups performing this weekend. Lincolnshire Show Yes, its that time again. The 124th Lincolnshire Show is this week! It starts tomorrow and well bring you coverage of the show on Look North. Obviously getting to the show can be quite tricky and there are lots of other ways to do so without having to drive there. So take a look on bbc.co.uk/lincolnshire for more info on park and ride and bus routes to the Lincolnshire Showground. If youre going, then I hope you enjoy it. Dont forget to take your camera and let us take a look at your view of the show. Its the usual address of [EMAIL PROTECTED] to get in touch. Fuel Its a topical one this one, but its also a story that sounds like science fiction! The latest fuel strike by oil tanker drivers has finished today, but the cost at the pumps is still a matter of concern for many motorists. So this story caught my attention! Scientists have found bugs that can eat waste and excrete petrol! I keep re-reading that and it just doesnt sound true does it? These are not normal bugs that you might find in the garden, they are genetically altered tiny bugs that can feed on agricultural waste like woodchips or straw and then excrete crude oil! This bug poo hasnt been put into the tank of any car yet, but research is continuing. So there you go! I dont totally believe that yet as it just sounds completely bizarre. But could we be buying bug poo at the petrol pumps in the future? Well, that's it from me for now. I hope youre having a lovely day. It doesnt look like the weather is going to break this week. Its threatening to rain even now. We havent had our summer already have we? Well have the forecast for you tonight anyway.
