    A man is celebrating the ninth anniversary of his heart transplant by walking from Pendeen to Land's End as part of a 5,000-mile (8,047km) trek around the UK coast.

    Kieran Sandwell, 47, from Dawlish, is on day 250 of his walk to raise funds for the British Heart Foundation.

    Before he started his adventure he had a close encounter with his old heart which he had donated to medical research.

    "It was bizarre; I had goosebumps all over and kept staring at it."

    Hundreds of passengers were delayed for three hours on the Isles of Scilly last night after the Scillonian developed an electrical fault.

    Engineers were flown out to fix the problem while passengers were looked after by local businesses.

    The breakdown means Tuesday's shipment of frozen and chilled goods to the islands has been cancelled.
