The CWU on post offices workers going on strike. Farming update from south Wilts beef farmer on coping with cold weather & the lambing/calving season. And a makeover for the RIAT

Mark talks to Chris Roche from CWU, the trade union representing workers at post offices going on strike. One of those is in Melksham and it's over fears they may be shut down or franchised into retail outlets.

It's been a cold few weeks for us all, but especially so for farmers and their livestock. We get a farming update from Minette Batters, a beef farmer in the South of the county, on how she is coping with the cold weather and whether it impacts on the lambing and calving season.

And we hear about a makeover planned for The Royal International Air Tattoo this summer, Chief Executive Tim Prince tells how the experience on the ground will rival that of what's happening in the skies.
