Default BBC weatherman thinks Piers is wonderful

Never thought we see a BBC weatherman sing the praises of someone who is so relentlessly attacked by folk on here and elsewhere. Looks like the rehabilitation of the Haygate One has started? Is it time we gave Piers a second chance or is it a case, for me, that absentness makes heart grow fonder? Big Jim

You mean you never thought to see a BBC weatherman sing the praises of someone who relentlessly attacks the Met Office without explaining anything.

Personally I wouldn't give him time to boil an egg -which is more than the weather presenters on the BBC get. I wonder they squandered it with such irrelevance.

Is it time we gave Piers a second chance.


No.

or is it a case, for me, that absentness makes heart grow fonder?


What language is that?
I am fond of his absidity, though.

Ah right, it was on a blog. I take it he never mist this then?

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk...g-8799266.html


The report states drivers were travelling at high speed without headlights

It was such accidents and reports of them that made me a believer in lunarcy. Inclined me to think Piers wasn't a total waste of time. It's your attentions to hime that have made me a convert.

Accidents like that don't happen if the mist isn't very thick. And the acidentees thicker. And if the mist is any more than mist, nobody should be driving over 30 mph. They shouldn't be out in fog if it isn't an emmergency. I hope their insurance is voided. Cars don't bend like that unless hit by someone at high speed, while travelling themselves at a similarly stupid rate of knots.

Accidentee - what language is that from? And while we're on the subject,
where did you find emmergency?

Jim: why do you love the left -wing planning Heygate crap planning so much. With the right people there it wouldn't be so bad, but the right people aren't
living there , are they?



However the hypocrisy of those who laud the Inner City areas yet live far away from them......knows no bounds,

A stopped clock is right twice a day..... Sadly, Piers would not acknowledge
that his forecasts are just that.....a result of waiting for the "clock" to
stop and "hit" them.....................................

Theres some lovely individuals living here, though - real salt of the earth types. I wouldnt swap it for the world. Surely youve heard the phrase "as the lawns grow wider so the minds grow narrower". I went on a day trip to Gillingham in the summer - I couldnt believed the rascist 'banter' that was going on in that cafe near the station. Other people sitting there just seemed to accept it - or were too frightened to say anything. No Ill stick with the Heygate, thanks

Reminds me of a Southwark 'community day' recently where kids who had done bad had now done good' so to speak. So these ex 'bad' kids who now get paid money for writing songs about 'bad' people's stories told in very bad songs, gets up and mumbles how he wants to give something back to the community. To which the chap next to me shouted.

"You can start with my mobile phone you nicked last year you little *******"
