Lawrence, fancy going ? :-)

Maybe Paul B. will go and tell them it's going to be mild - LOL.

(Like the photo...bit of a teaser, eh?)

Darn, on my birthday and all!
Any chance it might be snowed off on the 24th!??

Pretty hefty price for the CD-ROM. Half an hour allocated to the actual
forecast itself too!

Is this the sign of things to come for the UK Met Office or have they
carried out such a public event in the past?

Why are you? I'll tell you what, you pay this time and I'll pay the next

I'm as usual going to jump the gun as it were, and put my big foot in it.
But as JCW posed, have they (ukmo) held this sort of event before?
At £395.00 a lump per delegate I doubt it.

Blimey at least Metcheck are cheaper with their LR-codswallop-Forecasts !

Cherie Blair's not speaking-is she?

Hefty price to attend, too - £395 per delegate :-(

Will. Give me a little credit at least. I only said the winter will be
normal or above. A lot of evidence. Roeder. ecmwf, TWO backs me up.
Seeing as I have not put much work in, and only made comments. I feel
the LOL is bit uncalled for.
I am doing my best!

Aha! That's what you did wrong, Paul.
You should have said "could" ;-)

Paul, I think I know what the problem is, we're all scared to death that
you may be right about the winter forecast :-0

It seems the dear old Met Office are digging an even bigger hole for
themselves here - or is it a case of the more you talk about something,
the greater likelihood there is of it happening?

Surely aiming such an event at the corporate world - for a disaster
preparing scenario that has a very big chance of not happening - is
leaving them open to lawsuits - instead of just the proverbial egg on
face!

Strange indeed...
