Foncer. Ne pas penser à hier, et le moins possible à demain, voilà l'état d'esprit qui a guidé la réalisation d'Adrénaline, le troisième album d'Hervé. Une collection de chansons composées à l'instinct et enregistrées dans la foulée en équipe réduite à Brixham, sur la côte sud de l'Angleterre. Une sorte de retour aux sources pour Hervé, qui, en véritable numéro 10, s'est entouré de sa famille, de ses proches et son équipe qui l'accompagne depuis cinq ans pour remobiliser une forme d'énergie collective et remettre la musique au centre du jeu.

The health of the fishing industry relies directly on the number of fish in the sea, and the balance between conserving fish stocks, while also catching enough to make a living, is in constant tension. The Blue Marine Foundation charity has launched legal proceedings over the previous Government's decision to set fishing levels on multiple UK stocks above the level suggested by scientific advice. DEFRA says catch limits have been set in line with obligations under the Fisheries Act 2020 and the Joint Fisheries Statement.The practice of fishing by trawling the sea bed has come in for criticism from conservationists, because of the disturbance and destruction it can cause. The latest report by ICES, the International Council for the Exploration of the Sea, points out that bottom trawling is one of the major causes of environmental damage to the seabed. We visit a Government-funded trial underway in Brixham, where a new type pf fishing gear is being tested, which it's hoped will have less impact.And poor health experienced by many fishermen could be contributing to a decline in numbers working in the industry. That's according to charities and organisations that work with them. Last year, there was an 8% drop in the number of active fishermen in Scotland - part of a steady decline over the last decade.Presented by Anna Hill Produced by Heather Simons
Pollution has been piling up in our waters for years, damaging areas of natural beauty and even infecting drinking water in some areas of the country. Water companies like Thames Water, Yorkshire Water and Northumbrian Water have now found themselves paying millions of pounds worth of fines over historic sewage spills. So why does it keep happening and how can we fix it?In this special episode, Kamal and The Telegraph's environment editor Emma Gatten look at the state of our waterways and who is really to blame, and ask the new environment secretary Steve Reed what he's going to do about it. And join The Daily T for a trip down to Brixham, South Devon to meet the residents poisoned by cryptosporidium.Producer: Georgia CoanProducer: Tom DiamondSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyStudio Operator: Andy WatsonSocial Media Producer: Niamh WalshOriginal music by Goss Studio Hosted on Acast.

Was gefällt Ihnen am Podcast? Was nicht? Wir freuen uns über eine Teilnahme an unserer Umfrage: https://1.ard.de/ZHuH_Umfrage Und nun zum Podcast: Wer „Südengland“ hört, denkt schnell erstmal an das bei deutschen Touristen so beliebte Cornwall. Doch wer aus London Richtung Süden fährt, der sollte auch in South Devon anhalten und sich von den sanften grünen Hügeln und beeindruckenden Stränden hier begeistern lassen. Zwischen den Küstenorten Torquay, Paignton und Brixham liegt eine Bucht mit dem passenden Namen „English Riviera“. Hier lässt sich so einiges erleben. Zwar sind die drei kleinen Städtchen mittlerweile schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen, aber auch heute noch kann man hier bei sehr mildem Klima hervorragend urlauben. Sei es mit einem traditionellen „Fish & Chips“-Gericht an der Seepromenade von Torquay oder bei langen Küstenwanderungen entlang des „South West Coast Path“. Vor Jahrzehnten urlaubten hier in Torquay vor allem die Reichen und Schönen aus London – und mitten unter ihnen war auch eine junge Frau, die später zu einer der bekanntesten Krimi-Autorinnen der Welt werden sollte: Agatha Christie. Sie wurde hier geboren und ließ sich an der „English Riviera“ auch für Tatorte, Mörder und Mordmethoden inspirieren. Der Reichtum der Landbesitzer wiederum ist heutzutage einigen Aktivisten der „Right to Roam“-Kampagne ein Dorn im Auge: Sie fordern mehr Zugang zur Natur und Wildnis – die in England oft in Privatbesitz ist. Wir begeben uns auf die Spuren von Agatha Christie, lassen uns zeigen, wie man den Fisch für das Nationalgericht „Fish & Chips“ so knusprig bekommt – und wandern mit den „Right to Roam“-Aktivisten durch den malerischen Nationalpark Dartmoor. Für uns war Konstanze Nastarowitz in South Devon unterwegs.

Farmers need more money - so says the National Farmers' Union which says the incoming Government should increase the agriculture budget. Over the next few weeks as well as hearing from politicians about what they propose for farming, the environment and rural communities, we're also going to hear from rural and wildlife groups about what they think incoming MPs should be focusing on. Starting with the NFU which launched its manifesto at the end of last year. Fishermen in Looe say the closure of the Plymouth Fish Market is a disaster for their industry. Now the day catch has to be sent around 30 miles further, to Brixham Harbour for auction. The Looe Harbour Commissioners are trying to help the fishermen by transporting the fish to Brixham.Our topic for the week is vets. While they'll still be involved in a emergency, the role of a farm vet has changed a lot over the years. They now work with farmers on whole herd health. But that doesn't make the job any easier and as we'll hear this week recruiting vets in rural areas can be a challenge.Presented by Charlotte Smith and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
The date today is the 5th of May 2024. Today's walk is from Herons Rest to Brixham and back again along the South West Coast Path, Dart Valley Trail, John Musgrave Heritage Trail and Greenway Walk.

Also, in the week The Sunday Times Rich List is published, Simon and David share some secrets about how the blue chip PR world tries to get people on the list - and also get people off it! And does the PR industry look after the mental health of its own people well enough? They take a look at a concerning report.Producer: Eve Streeter Editor: Sarah Teasdale Executive Producer: William Miller Music by Eclectic Sounds A Raconteur production for BBC Radio 4

https://youtu.be/Mbo4t5qo5pw EZRA 6 – A DECREE AND A DEDICATION – Part 2 In Ezra 5 we found the Jews attempting to build the temple again after the building had stopped by the powers of Babylon. The resumption of the build of course gained attention from the enemy. But we then saw what happens when a king or government recognises something of the power and greatness of God – there was a new freedom to build! – and we drew parallels with the temple the Jews built back then and the temple God is building today – his church. We prayed for our government to recognise the power of the Church to heal and help in society today. Now we will complete this chapter and discover what it looks like when God is on the move. 6 HALLMARKS OF A MOVE OF GOD in EZRA 6 You may be familiar with the quotation in the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, “They say Aslan is on the move.” It was a cold and depressing time in Narnia. But Mr Beaver, who had never even seen Aslan in his life, was full of hope and expectation. The very mention of Aslan's name seemed to have a marked effect on those present. Today I want to talk about what it would looks like when God is on the move. Ezra 6:13-22 The Temple's Dedication 13 Tattenai, governor of the province west of the Euphrates River, and Shethar-bozenai and their colleagues complied at once with the command of King Darius. 14 So the Jewish elders continued their work, and they were greatly encouraged by the preaching of the prophets Haggai and Zechariah son of Iddo. The Temple was finally finished, as had been commanded by the God of Israel and decreed by Cyrus, Darius, and Artaxerxes, the kings of Persia. 15 The Temple was completed on March 12, during the sixth year of King Darius's reign. 16 The Temple of God was then dedicated with great joy by the people of Israel, the priests, the Levites, and the rest of the people who had returned from exile. 17 During the dedication ceremony for the Temple of God, 100 young bulls, 200 rams, and 400 male lambs were sacrificed. And 12 male goats were presented as a sin offering for the twelve tribes of Israel. 18 Then the priests and Levites were divided into their various divisions to serve at the Temple of God in Jerusalem, as prescribed in the Book of Moses. Celebration of Passover 19 On April 21 the returned exiles celebrated Passover. 20 The priests and Levites had purified themselves and were ceremonially clean. So they slaughtered the Passover lamb for all the returned exiles, for their fellow priests, and for themselves. 21 The Passover meal was eaten by the people of Israel who had returned from exile and by the others in the land who had turned from their corrupt practices to worship the Lord, the God of Israel. 22 Then they celebrated the Festival of Unleavened Bread for seven days. There was great joy throughout the land because the Lord had caused the king of Assyria to be favorable to them, so that he helped them to rebuild the Temple of God, the God of Israel. HALLMARKS OF A MOVE OF GOD Everything falls into place In verse 13 The king's governors ‘complied at once' with everything to do with the rebuild of the temple. There was suddenly great provision and compliance to enable the temple to be built. Those who had opposed the build were now helping out! Sometimes things just fall into place. I was speaking to a friend recently who was sensing that after some time in another role, God was calling him back to school teaching. He then got a message from a past pupil who was now at Oxford as a postgraduate and had credited him in her dissertation because of the help and influence he had had on her life. Days later he was offered a teaching job in a local school with no need to apply. “We know who you are and the job is yours if you want it.” Sometimes things just fall into place and the enemy does not stand a chance. That's how Andrea and I met, it's how we were directed to move to Brixham,
https://youtu.be/JLXzCaupbsE Sermon notes: Praying for the Persecuted Church Introduction: On average, every 2 hours, a follower of Christ, one of our brothers or sisters in Christ, is martyred for their faith, somewhere in the world, not to mention others around them who may be injured, bereaved or traumatised in the same incident. At our monthly prayer meeting for the Persecuted Church on Thursday evening, using the OpenDoors excellent videos, the six of us heard a story of a young Nigerian boy who survived a shooting by the Boko Harem Islamic extremist group. However 7 members of his family including his father lay dead. He was so full of anger against his family's killers and God that he became very angry, bitter and violent, desperate for revenge. Thankfully an OpenDoors trauma counsellor and her team were able to talk to him in time, and he broke down and wept, and was able to recover his faith in God and forgive the killers. We also heard the testimony of a teenage girl in East Africa, who was a member of a family from an Islamic tribe who had all become Christians and were ostrasized by their community. One evening, when her parents were out, a man from the village came into the home and raped her. She was so traumatised physically and mentally that she lost the will to live. Thankfully she received help from OpenDoors trauma counsellors, recovered, and now uses her difficult experience to help others who have suffered in similar ways. These are precious members of our family in Christ! As we prayed, the horror of these two incidents dawned on us and we felt the urgent need to encourage more Christians to join us in united prayer and to support organisations like OpenDoors. I knew I should take the opportunity to speak about it today! How should we pray for the persecuted church? In the course of my preparations the Lord gave me numerous confirmations that He wanted me to share this message today. For instance on Friday evening, during work on the sermon, I stopped for a break specifically to take communion with Christine. When I sat down with her at 9.30pm, she was watching TBN on TV. The programme that was just starting was 'Pray for the Persecuted Church with OpenDoors!' It gave me further testimonies for this sermon. As I was doing my final preparations this morning, an old friend phoned me in great distress with a very serious health issue. He asked me to pray for him over the phone and I used words from the Bible passage I am about to read to you. Afterwards he read the very same scripture to me which came to his mind as he had been studying it quite recently! In 2 Corinthians 1:2-11 Paul shares a testimony he and his companions experienced:- Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God. For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ. If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer. And our hope for you is firm, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort. We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers and sisters, about the troubles we experienced in the province of Asia. We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired of life itself. Indeed, we felt we had received the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead. He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us again. On him we have set our hope that he will continue to deliver us, as you help us by your prayers. Then many will give thanks on our behalf for the gracious favour granted us in an...

A new study has found that small-scale burning of heather on peatlands can be beneficial to ground nesting birds, and the peat itself. The practice of burning heather has been controversial - it's sometimes supported by managers of grouse-shooting moorland, but opposed by many conservationists. The study will span 20 years and is now half way through. It compares three different management techniques - controlled burning, mowing, and no-management. We speak to Associate Professor Andreas Heinemeyer, from the Stockholm Environment Institute at the University of York who's led the research. Experts from the Wildlife Trusts however, say peatlands are vital for carbon capture, and bogs should not be managed for heather. They say heather's a sign of peatland that's dried out and the best way to manage them is to re-wet them. They don't want any burning of vegetation on peatland at all. All week we're looking at the fishing industry. Recruiting more UK workers is a problem for the sector. A new Fishers Apprenticeship hopes to attract more young people.The programme is a collaboration between the fishing industry and South Devon College, and is open for applicants right now. We speak to a fishing company in Brixham who are looking for apprentices and South Devon College who'll be teaching them. Presenter = Anna Hill Producer = Rebecca Rooney
Brexit was supposed to revive the fishing industry. Free of the shackles of Brussels rules, the UK's fishing fleets would once more be able to make the most of British coastal waters and revitalise their coastal communities.This is what Boris Johnson told Ian Perkes in Devon back in 2019. Four years later, the Brixham fish merchant's business has seen sales plummet 30 per cent and export costs rise by as much as £3,000 a week.In this week's episode of The i Podcast with our chief news correspondent, David Parsley, we are going to take a look at what went wrong.Then we are joined by i‘s chief features writer, Kasia Delgado, who has been looking at the four-decades-long deal between the media and the Royal Family, that has come under intense scrutiny.As Prince Harry's bombshell claims continue to make waves – the media's relationship to the Royal Family is fraying, and Kasia takes us behind the scenes on how this deal is being upended.

Top chef Angela Hartnett loves cooking fish but wonders why so much of the huge range of fish and seafood that's landed by British fishermen is exported to continental markets. We may eat some of that world-class catch when we are on holiday in Spain or France, but not at home. What are the cultural barriers to eating fish? Is it a hangover from the days of the Catholic Friday fast? A sense that meat is more vital and sustaining? Or just that we are a bit rubbish in the kitchen and at a loss when it comes to cooking fish? Angela reports from the fishing port of Brixham in Devon as the trawlers come in and the fish is sold by electronic auction in the neighbouring fish market. She shares her thoughts with fellow chefs and seafood restaurant owners Mitch Tonks and Nathan Outlaw, together with representatives of the fishing industry. Meanwhile on the East Coast, we hear Mike Warner out fishing for herring - the affordable, plentiful but neglected fish that was once a staple, Pen Vogler gives us the historical context, and Angela has some conclusions about how to turn this island into a land of fish lovers at last.

Talk 15 God speaks to us directly (Part 1) The Bible is full of examples of God speaking very directly, often without any human involvement. Some of the ways he speaks like this include: an audible voice angels dreams and visions supernatural signs promptings. We'll look at each of these in turn, starting with some biblical examples and then illustrating wherever possible from my own experience. I say ‘wherever possible' because I can't honestly say that God has spoken to me in all of these ways. An audible voice There are many examples in the Bible where we read that the Lord spoke to someone, but it's not always clear how he spoke. Consider the example we looked at earlier in the series. We looked at Acts 13:1-3 where we read that the Holy Spirit said, "Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them." The Holy Spirit may well have spoken with an audible voice on this occasion, but it's just as likely that the spoke through one of the prophets who were present (v.1). On other occasions, however, it's perfectly clear that God's voice was audible. To mention just a few examples: Isaiah heard the voice of the Lord saying, ‘Whom shall I send and who will go for us?' (Isaiah 6:8). When Ezekiel had a vision of the glory of the Lord, he fell face down and heard the voice of one speaking (Ezekiel 1:28). At Jesus' baptism a voice from heaven said, ‘This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased' (Matthew 3:17). On the road to Damascus, Paul had a vision of Jesus, fell to the ground, and heard a voice say to him, ‘Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?' (Acts 9:4). Peter heard his voice while praying on the rooftop in Joppa (Acts 10:13-16). And on the isle of Patmos John heard a loud voice, the voice of the Lord, telling him to write (Revelation 1:10-12). All these examples seem to make it perfectly clear that God sometimes speaks with an audible voice. But to be absolutely sure about this, let's turn to the well-known story of Samuel (1 Samuel 3). Hannah, Samuel's mother, had been unable to have children, which, in the culture in which she lived, caused other women to despise her. But she prayed fervently to the Lord and promised that if he would give her a son, she would dedicate him to the Lord's service. So, when Samuel was born in answer to Hannah's prayer, she took him to the temple where the boy ministered before the Lord under Eli the priest (2:11). In chapter 3 we read how one night, while Samuel was lying down, the Lord called him by name. Samuel, not knowing that it was the Lord, ran to Eli and said, Here I am. You called me. But Eli replied, I did not call; go back and lie down. This happened three times, and by then Eli realised that it was God who was calling Samuel. He told him that, when the Lord called again, he should reply, Speak Lord, for your servant is listening. This was the beginning of Samuel's ministry as a prophet and it's very clear that God's voice was audible. The fact that Samuel thought that it was Eli who was speaking shows that Samuel heard what was being said. From this it seems reasonable to assume that this may well have been the way that God spoke to Samuel on a regular basis. And I have no doubt that if God could do it then, he can do it today. Having said that, although God has spoken to me in many wonderful ways, I have never heard his audible voice and I know very few people who would claim to have done so. However, rather more frequently we hear of God speaking through the ministry of angels. Angels As far as I know, I have never seen an angel and have never heard an angel speak to me – although we need to remember that some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it (Hebrews 13:2). But both Old and New Testaments show that God sometimes speaks to his people through the ministry of angels. The word angel comes directly from the Greek word aggelos (pronounced angelos) and simply means messenger. Angels are God's messengers. They are ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation (Hebrews 1:14). A good example of this is when the angel Gabriel appeared to Zechariah, the father of John the Baptist and told him that his prayer had been heard and that his wife, Elizabeth, who was barren, would bear him a son. Humanly speaking, this was totally impossible because both Zechariah and Elizabeth were now far too old. I think Zechariah's question was quite understandable: How can I be sure of this? I am an old man and my wife is well on in years (Luke 1:18). Gabriel's reply in the next verse illustrates perfectly the ministry of angels: I am Gabriel. I stand in the presence of God, and have been sent to speak to you and tell you this good news (Luke 1:19). Angels are God's messengers. They stand in God's presence and are sent to speak to us. The Gospels and Acts give us plenty of examples. About six months after his visit to Zechariah, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, to a virgin whose name was Mary (Luke 1:26-27). It was angels who brought the good news of Jesus' birth to the shepherds and told them where they would find him (Luke 2:8-14). It was an angel that came from heaven and appeared to Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, strengthening him (Luke 22:43). And it was the angel of the Lord who descended from heaven and rolled away the stone from the mouth of Jesus' tomb and told the women who had come to anoint the body of Jesus that he was risen (Matthew 28:1:7). In the Book of Acts, as the disciples were looking intently up into the sky, two men dressed in white stood beside them (Acts 1:10). They told them: This same Jesus who has been taken from you into Heaven, will come back in the same way as you have seen him go into Heaven (v,11) These men dressed in white were undoubtedly angels sent by God to remind them of Jesus' promise that he would come again (John 14:28). In Acts 5:19 the angel of the Lord opened the prison doors and released Peter and John. In Acts 8:26 an angel told Philip the evangelist to go south to the road that leads from Jerusalem to Gaza. This led to the conversion of a key national leader from the land of Ethiopia. In Acts 10 it was an angel who spoke to both the apostle Peter and the Roman centurion Cornelius (verses 3, 7, 22) resulting in the conversion of Cornelius and his entire household. In Acts 12 it was the angel of the Lord who once again released Peter from prison (verses 7-11). And in Acts 27:23-24 it was an angel who stood beside Paul before the ship on which he was travelling was wrecked on the island of Malta and said: Do not be afraid, Paul. You must stand before Caesar, and God has graciously given you the lives of all who sail with you, Now the Book of Acts was not written simply as a historical account of the beginnings of the early church. Most scholars are agreed that Luke's intentions in writing it were not merely historical. They are theological and missional. Luke is not just teaching us how it was, but how it can and should be. And in recording the frequent activity of angels, he is surely telling us that we can at times expect angelic intervention too. There have certainly been many anecdotal reports recently of people claiming to have experienced the presence of angels in one way or another and I see no good reason to doubt this, particularly when the testimony comes from a reliable source. As far as Eileen and I are concerned, although God has never spoken to us through an angelic messenger, I am confident that we have experienced angelic help on at least one occasion. In 1977 I served as Acting Principal of Mattersey Hall for six months before being appointed Principal in 1978. During that time we were still living in Basingstoke although I was at Mattersey much of the time about 200 miles away from home. One weekend I went with about 50 of our students from Mattersey to Newport in South Wales. There was a big inter-church meeting on the Saturday night and on the Sunday the students went to different churches to sing, testify, and preach. I stayed in Newport to preach in the church there. After Sunday lunch the pastor, Eric Dando, asked me if I would like to phone Eileen, which of course I was grateful to do. After telling her that the weekend was going well, I asked her how she was and was shocked to hear her reply. I'm O.K., she said, but I very nearly wasn't! Oh! What's happened? I replied. And she told me what had happened to her on the Saturday night while I had been away preaching in Newport. There had been a women's missionary meeting in London and Eileen and several of the ladies from the church in Basingstoke had gone to it. They had travelled in two cars and on the way home, on the road between Reading and Basingstoke, several horses ran into the road in front of the cars. It seems that they had escaped from a nearby field. One of the horses collided with the car in which Eileen was travelling in the front passenger seat. The impact was so great that the front of the car roof caved in to within an inch of Eileen's head. The car was a complete write-off and, as the people from the car in front walked back to see exactly what had happened, they feared the worst. At this point it is important to explain that at that time the wearing of seat-belts was not compulsory in the U.K. and the car in which Eileen was travelling didn't have any. Bearing in mind the speed at which the car had been travelling when it collided with the horse, both Eileen and the driver should have been thrown forward through the windscreen. Indeed, the woman seated behind Eileen was thrown forward so violently into the back of Eileen's seat that it was twisted out of position. Yet Eileen was not thrown forward, and none of those travelling in that car was seriously injured. They all walked away relatively unharmed. As she related the story afterwards Eileen told me that throughout the whole incident she was strangely conscious of something – or someone? – holding her to the back of her seat, preventing her from being thrown forward. Was it a coincidence that on that very evening I had been preaching in Newport on a subject I have rarely preached on before or since? My subject was ANGELS. Of course, I cannot categorically state that Eileen was saved by an angel. But I am certain that Eileen's life was spared by divine intervention of some kind – and, as we have seen, the Bible does say that angels are messengers God sometimes sends to be of help to his people. More recently I had an experience of answered prayer which several of my friends have suggested might have been brought about by angels. It was Sunday May 9th 2021 at around 10.45am. I was travelling from Brixham, where we live, to Newton Abbot for a COVID test. This was required because I was due to go into hospital on the Tuesday for an exploratory procedure on my larynx. Shortly after I started my journey I noticed a gentle banging sound coming from the rear of the car. At first I wasn't too concerned and anyway I didn't want to stop as I didn't want to miss the appointment for the COVID test which was at 11am. If I had missed the appointment the procedure would have had to be postponed. So I continued my journey hoping that the banging was nothing serious, Within a few miles, however, the banging had become much louder and I was getting scared. Finally, in desperation I called out, Lord Jesus, please take care of this! No sooner had I said this than I saw in the mirror a car behind me flashing its headlights. It drew along side me and indicated that I needed to pull over into the layby that was a few yards ahead. When I did so the problem was obvious. My nearside back wheel was coming off! Two of the five nuts that hold the wheel on were missing and the other three were loose. If I had continued like that, the consequences could have been fatal. Relieved that the other driver had pulled me over in time, I asked if he could help me, explaining the urgency of getting to the COVID appointment. This he gladly did and, when he searched in the boot for the wheel brace, he discovered that there were two spare wheel nuts there! It took less than a minute for him to fix the wheel and he was on his way. And I reached Newton Abbot just in time for my appointment. I think I have never known such a quick and dramatic answer to prayer. Now, of course, I cannot be sure that the man who fixed my wheel was in fact an angel, but I'm open to that possibility. But in a way it really doesn't matter. What matters is that the Lord answered my prayer, saved my life and brought me safely through the operation. Whether or not he used an angel to do so is unimportant. As we have seen, the Bible does tell us that angels are God's messengers and that they are sent to minister to God's people. I believe it because the Bible says so, not because I've had an experience that may or may not have involved an angel.

Happy Wednesday, Fairy Sleepers! I hope you have had a wonderful week! This week's story is called The Missing Will, written by one of the most prolific detective novelists of all time, and I don't mean Authur Conan Doyle, although he is a very close second. See if you can guess the mystery of the writer and The Missing Will. One side note: Shameless self-promotion. ;-)During the intro, I mention that the author grew up near a town called Brixham, England. I honestly had no idea of that fact until I did the research this week, but that is the town my book The Hundred Year Hotel by J A Lambert takes place because I found it so magical when I visited. The Berryhead Hotel in Brixham is the real hotel that inspired the fictional story. If you like Fantasy Fiction and magic, you will enjoy the story and can find it on Amazon. Working on the audiobook now! If not, no worries! Enjoy tonight's story, and I hope it makes you very Fairy Sleepy! Until next time, goodnight!

In 1688 a large invasion arrived in England from the Dutch Republic, led by William of Orange. It was a risky move, driven partly out of fear of the English allying with Louis XIV of France, who was threatening to attack his country. King James II of England was fast losing popular support for his Catholic sympathies, a fact exploited in William's propaganda to the English.www.historyeurope.netwww.patreon.com/historyeuropeMusic: Henry Purcell (Overture in G minor, Gordion Knot Untied)Intro by Nico Vettese (wetalkofdreams.com)Picture: William III Landing at Brixham, Torbay See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Who are you? It's the question others always ask -implicitly if not explicitly -when they first meet you. Do you know clearly yourself? On what level? And how do you express who you are in a way that is authentic and encourages deeper exploration? This is what we explored on the call. Transcript https://www.happyscribe.com/transcriptions/e8e3b352b0d346819065b71e93859d3b/edit_v2?position=0.81 ([00:00]) Welcome to honest talk about heartbreak, dating and relationships, relationships, the podcast helping you navigate your path to happy ever after with your host, Rob McPhillips. OK, so we've still got a few people to join. I expect that will be joining us in the next 10 minutes. But rather than everyone wait, I think what it might be best to do is we'll go into breakout groups and just to ask each other the topic of the day, today's meet up career. https://www.happyscribe.com/transcriptions/e8e3b352b0d346819065b71e93859d3b/edit_v2?position=42.13 ([00:42]) And it's just a chance to get to know people. In a little bit more detail. OK, so he had an interesting how did most people respond? https://www.happyscribe.com/transcriptions/e8e3b352b0d346819065b71e93859d3b/edit_v2?position=58.9 ([00:58]) At this point, I want to look to the question of who you are and generally how how did it feel? https://www.happyscribe.com/transcriptions/e8e3b352b0d346819065b71e93859d3b/edit_v2?position=70.52 ([01:10]) Really awkward. Yeah. I think it was quite comfortable because we were such a small group and we were all kind of one, I think. https://www.happyscribe.com/transcriptions/e8e3b352b0d346819065b71e93859d3b/edit_v2?position=82.85 ([01:22]) OK, so what I'm interested in is what were the different answers that people had? https://www.happyscribe.com/transcriptions/e8e3b352b0d346819065b71e93859d3b/edit_v2?position=94.89 ([01:34]) I think for ourselves, we was kind of associating ourselves, relating ourselves to our circumstance with which which we want to. Well, what we're challenged with, like trying to change, like relationship status or trying to. https://www.happyscribe.com/transcriptions/e8e3b352b0d346819065b71e93859d3b/edit_v2?position=114.15 ([01:54]) Stablish Will Hermes. So we didn't identify ourselves, such as about usually what people would do through hobbies, interests. It's because of the nature of this meeting is themed. We we associated ourselves with our status where we are. And what kind of Drew was, hey, I guess we take. https://www.happyscribe.com/transcriptions/e8e3b352b0d346819065b71e93859d3b/edit_v2?position=138.95 ([02:18]) I don't think we're going into any philosophical discussions, at least not while I was desperately trying to connect the. And who are you as a person or personality or I think. Well, I took it literally as a question. What's your background? What are you trying to achieve? I think the rest of the group at the time was discussing a case that was in terms of relationships, because that's the context. https://www.happyscribe.com/transcriptions/e8e3b352b0d346819065b71e93859d3b/edit_v2?position=166.99 ([02:46]) Yes. OK, what about other groups? https://www.happyscribe.com/transcriptions/e8e3b352b0d346819065b71e93859d3b/edit_v2?position=172.72 ([02:52]) I was pretty much similar in our group. It was pretty much, you know, this is my age, this is where I live free and all that sort of thing. This is what I like to do, this demographic and psychographic a group. https://www.happyscribe.com/transcriptions/e8e3b352b0d346819065b71e93859d3b/edit_v2?position=189.97 ([03:09]) We took it a bit further and we can't discuss the tests that we took earlier. And what if we agree with the style and related to that? https://www.happyscribe.com/transcriptions/e8e3b352b0d346819065b71e93859d3b/edit_v2?position=198.27 ([03:18]) Okay, so which test is that the most Brixham and the attachment or the love language mainly....
Fathom: getting below the surface of the UK fishing industry.
‘All fishermen know the job is dangerous… it’s nice to keep it in your mind that there are people who care about you at home… rather than, you need to wear your lifejacket, you need to do this, you need to do that!’ Ben, skipper at Newlyn This week is a special episode of Fathom to celebrate and share #MaritimeSafetyWeek, #SeafarersWeek and the launch of a powerful new fishing safety campaign, #HomeandDry. We have taken this opportunity to have a conversation with not one, but five people from across the industry, getting to grips with what safety means, and how the difficult, sometimes tiresome topic of safety should be talked about. We have collated all interviews into one podcast, a wonderful collection of conversations which you can sail through and catch snippets of emotion, experience and expertise from the quayside. We kick off with Fathom host and the CFPO Chief Exec Paul Trebilcock, who explores the positive changes happening within the industry. We then speak to Dave Driver, a skipper from Brixham, a man who’s time at sea has witnessed the loss of close friends. Importantly, campaigning for safety awareness within the fishing industry does not have to be a story of fear, danger, risk and rules. The new and compelling #HomeandDry campaign, which has been crafted from extensive research conducted with fishermen, tells quite a different story - one of home, community, family and love. Our interview with skipper Ben from the Real Cornish Crab Company highlights a heartwarming and important message, that fishermen go to sea and arrive home safe for those who love them. Roger Gee of the MCA offers a glimpse at a new code that will improve the safety of fishing vessels, and urges anyone to get in touch with suggestions. We also hear from Patch Harvey, Cox of the famous Penlee lifeboat, who shares some life-changing advice on keeping your crew trained and prepared at sea. By weaving together these voices, we tell a bigger story of fishing: one of pride, preparation and community.#HomeAndDry homeanddry.uk Support the show (https://www.seafarers.uk/?gclid=Cj0KCQjw7qn1BRDqARIsAKMbHDZJUvawq90oigSKfM7JnjhgzThGXfui8JHzk1SnepwZn1dOTjTUIaUaAjriEALw_wcB)

John Smith is known for his delicate and intricate guitar work, honey-and-gravel voice and songs of lost love. He was born in Essex, but brought up in the seaside town of Brixham in Devon. Struck down by illness as a child, he took up the guitar and practiced obsessively in his attic bedroom overlooking the sea. In this episode, he takes Matthew to the harbour wall to sing “Salty and Sweet” and up onto the cliffs where he found peace and solitude as a teenager to sing his own compositions “Save My Life” and “Hummingbird” and the traditional Somerset song “Hares on the Mountain”.
A tantalising taste of all six beautiful episodes of Season 3, featuring The Lost Words Spell Songs: Jackie Morris and Beth Porter in Pembrokeshire; Martin Simpson in Scunthorpe; The Unthanks on the Northumberland Coast; John Smith in Brixham; Lisa Knapp in Tooting and Duncan Chisholm at Sandwood Bay.
The date today is the 6th of May 2019. Today's walk is from Herons Rest to Broadsands and Brixham and back again along the South West Coast Path, Dart Valley Trail, John Musgrave Heritage Trail and Greenway Walk.
Dan Saladino travels from Brixham to Tokyo in search of Bluefin tuna. In recent months there have been more sightings of the endangered fish in British waters but does that mean we can eat them? The Bluefin is the rarest, most valuable and at risk of the seven tuna species found around the world. Found in three main stocks around the world, in the Pacific, Southern and Atlantic Oceans, some populations of the fish have declined by more than 97 per cent. The vast majority of these large, fast and magnificent predators end up being auctioned in Japan where they are prized by sushi chefs. Dan looks at the past, present and possible future of our relationship with the Bluefin Tuna, hearing how its numbers fell into decline in the latter half of the twentieth century and why there are hopes for its recovery in years to come. He travels to Tokyo to witness the tuna auctions at which some single fish have fetched prices as high as £2.5 million and finds out what led to its appeal in Asia. Chef Mitch Tonks describes his own experience of Bluefin, both as a fish he's watched hunting along the UK's southern coast and as a food he's eaten in Japanese sushi bars. Professor or Marine Conservation Callum Roberts explains how we should react to the increased sightings in the Atlantic, and a police investigator describes how criminal networks are also targeting the Bluefin trade. For the fascinating tale of how Bluefin tuna came to be so important in Japanese food culture Dan talks to Trevor Corson, author of The Story of Sushi: An Unlikely Saga of Raw Fish and Rice. Presenter: Dan Saladino

Boy Leslie er en "Brixham trawler", en seilkutter bygget i England i 1911. Med sine 79 fot og 6 m bredde, et dypgående på 3,10 gaffelrigget med storseil og mesan, baugspryd og klyvere, hadde den kraft nok til å trekke en 12 meter bred bom bak seg, hvor trålen var festet. Det ble bygget flere tusen slike kuttere i England fra slutten av 1800-tallet og fram til første verdenskrig, men de ble fort for gammeldags da større dampbåter og moderne ismaskiner kunne forsyne London og industribyene med fisk på en mer effektiv måte. Mange av dem fikk et nytt liv på norske hender, til bruk i makrellfiske eller lastefart langs kysten. Da ble de ombygd og forandret og etter hvert kondemnert. Slik gikk det også nesten med Boy Leslie, men i 1979 ble den kjøpt av en forening med private entusiaster i Arendal. - I dag er Boy Leslie et seilende kulturminne for hele Nordsjøområdet når det gjelder denne typen båter, sier styreformann Bjørn Abrahamsen i Fartøyvernforeningen som eier og driver Boy Leslie. Etter en flere år lang restaurering, med et budsjett på rundt 14 millioner kroner og med store tilskudd fra Riksantikvaren, er nå Boy Leslie mer enn ship shape. Nå fremstår denne seilkutteren slik den gjorde da den kom fra verftet i England. I MUSEUM blir det seiltur ut fra Pollen i Arendal, gjennom Galtesundet og ut for å smale på kulingen ved Lille Torungen. - Skuta kan godt gjøre både 10 og 12 knop, sier skipper Abrahamsen, som også kan fortelle at Boy Leslie på andre året på rad vant den prestisjefylte "Limfjorden rundt"- regattaen for klassiske seilbåter i september 2017. Programleder Øyvind Arntsen, sendt første gang oktober 2017
The British fishing industry suffered decades of sharp decline during our membership of the European Union. The European Common Fisheries Policy has long been regarded by many as a disaster, both for fishermen and for fish stocks. So will Brexit bring a bright new dawn? Will fishing boats from other nations be forced from our waters, could new 200 mile limits provide our fleet with copious fish to catch? Or will our Brexit negotiators focus on maintaining markets for big businesses like finance and the car industry, offering our fish stocks as sacrificial prawns? Tom Heap visits fishing communities in Peterhead, Hastings and Brixham to gauge the mood and meets the conservationists hoping that new measures could revive our fish stocks. Producer: Sarah Swadling.
