THE FIRE SERVICE extinguished a car fire in Broad Haven on Saturday afternoon (Jan 14).
The car, which was parked
on Sandyke Road, had its bonnet engulfed in flames. A van which was
parked next to the car has also suffered damage. Mid and West Wales Fire and
Rescue Service and Dyfed-Powys Police attended the scene. Nobody was injured in the
incident. Dog dies following cliff fall AN INSHORE RNLI lifeboat
and its volunteer crew were tasked to reports of a dog over a cliff near the entrance of Solva Harbour on Sunday morning (Jan 15). The call came through at 11.15am
and, once on the scene, the lifeboat crew recovered the dog and conveyed it into Solva harbour.
Once back on land, they handed
the dog over to its owners, who were being looked after by St David’s Coastguard team. Sadly, the dog did not survive the
fall. The lifeboat then returned to
station, arriving back at 1.15pm, refuelled and was ready for service.
ST CATHERINE'S ISLAND
featured in the series finale of Sherlock on Sunday night (Jan 15), where the much debated secret of Sherrinford was revealed. If you've not watched the episode
yet, be warned: there are some spoilers ahead. Despite rumours that Sherrinford
was going to be a fourth Holmes sibling, or a code name for Holmes' sister, Eurus, who was revealed in the penultimate episode, the Tenby landmark is actually a maximum security prison where the worst of the worst are locked up.
St Catherine’s Island: The location for a high security prison The finale to the fourth series
featured stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman at the Pembrokeshire fort as they attempted to save the day yet again. Not only did the fort feature a
high-tech base, it saw a lot of action with helicopters swooping around and armed men patrolling the perimeters. Last year, Sherlock fanatics flocked
to Castle Beach to watch the filming of the episode, although at the time the exact reasons for the island being used was unknown. St Catherine's Island closed its doors permanently in August last
year after troubles with planning permission. Those behind the fort said at the
time: "It has now been confirmed that the Island and fort will once again close its gate to the public, as it unfortunately faces an uncertain future. Our final day of opening to the public will be Saturday, August 27, 2016. “All the team here on the Island
thank you all for your support that you have shown and appreciate this may come as shocking news but please be aware we cannot be drawn further on the subject until the official announcement has been made."
