Philip. Nice little attack on the less responsible media on Saturday and
Sunday in your column in the Torygraph.


Pity that the Sunday Telegraph kept up its record of seemingly screwing
something up in the weather section every week, which must be really
annoying for Philip. This time they for once managed to get all the
Celsius/Fahrenheit conversions correct, but the reports from cities
around the world for the previous day were in many cases pure fantasy.
For example, London had 10C and rain, Birmingham had 11C, and the
figures for Amsterdam, Brussels and Paris looked almost as implausible.
I'd guess that they'd somehow managed to reuse the data from several
weeks ago.
