1) Less than one third of the release related to the summer forecast.

So what?
How much detail do you want for a seasonal forecast?

2) Forecasts of global annual mean are not relevant to the 'summer'
forecast.

That was mentioned in the 'background' section. So it was 'setting the
scene' if you like of a high chance of a warm summer here in the
context of generelly rising tempertures globally.

3) A high probability of exceeding the average ... how high is high?

At least 70%.

4) Only 1 in 8 chance of being 'similar' to 2003 and 2006.

And?
It's a probability forecast. The best thing to do for seasonal
forecasts. You can't expect them to commit themselves one way or
another at this range.

5) Where is the forecast for? The UK or England?

The UK. It says so in the 'background' section.

6) At my location, it would need to be similar to 03 and 06 to be similar
to 04 and 05.

?

On a scale of one to tosh, I rate the 100 words spent on the forecast as
tosh.

I suggest you read things properly before coming to the conclusion
they are 'tosh'.
