All of last night I slept rough on the streets of Milton Keynes. 

It was really hard and I was completely freezing. 

I, of course, only did it for one night and was able to go home to a warm house, but that's not the story for many people here in the new city.

On my night on the streets of Milton Keynes, I met up with Jimmy, who said he would look after me. 

I put myself in this position by presenting myself as homeless to the council. 

It sadly couldn't help me and referred me to the local YMCA, but because I'm over 35 it couldn't accept me either. 

The organisation said I would need to apply with a housing association, but that can take weeks or even months.

So far this year in Milton Keynes, three homeless people have died on the streets. 

This is a subject I have reported on a lot over the past few weeks. 

The council says it is doing what it can deal with the problem, but the government has rejected its bid for £2m to help homeless people in the town.

So to see what happens if you end up on the street, I decided to present myself as homeless to the council.

It was damaged when a 37-tonne lorry tried to cross it, despite only having a three-tonne weight limit.

The lorry driver from Girteka Logistics, based in Lithuania, lost his job over the incident. 

Bob Johnson, the town's mayor, was the first to drive across it this morning.

He said: "The major problem has been in local trade, there's no question about it.

"There's been some serious reductions in people coming into the town. Not because they don't want to come here, but because it's been difficult to get here."

Mercedes boss Toto Wolff plays down the possibility of team-mates Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg coming together during the title-deciding Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

It wasn't only Marlow where the crowds came out in force last night. 

There was plenty of "ooing" and "ahhing" in Bedford for the annual turning on of the Christmas lights. 

Thousands turned out along the town's Embankment for the free fireworks display.

The whole event went off with a bang and Father Christmas even made an appearance.

The "biggest crowds so far" turned out in Marlow last night to see Mary Berry, the queen of baking, turn on the town's festive lights. 

Just look how many people turned up...

Businesses in Marlow hope trade will return to normal when the town bridge reopens this morning. 

The bridge has been closed since September after a 37 tonne lorry got stuck on it when the driver ignored a three tonne weight limit. 

Around a thousand people gathered last night to celebrate - among them Mary Berry who was there to switch on the Christmas lights!

The Thames bridge in Marlow reopens to excitement from TV star and resident Mary Berry.

It's a cooler start to what's going to be a bright and breezy day today. 

There'll be a lot more in the way of sunshine, but we've still got that chilly and quite blustery north-easterly wind.

You'll feel that particularly towards coastal areas, where you'll have to factor in quite a bit of wind chill into today's temperatures, despite the sunshine.

Highs of 9C (48F).
