* A local fisherman has donated a rescued boat to Wells Nursery School in Norfolk for the children to use in their outdoor play. After finding the boat abandoned in Wells harbour, Daniel Warnes gave it a lick of paint and invited other locals to contribute parts to the project. The boat was soon fitted out with a new mast, an engine, a radio, levers and a control panel. Nursery teacher Janice Whitaker said, 'The children are delighted with their new boat.
