the last time that i looked a 'forecast' was a prediction of something
that will/might happen - that's probably why it hasn't happened yet
and in particular when it's the forceast for tomorrow!!

Been described as 'any fool' is really one of the kindest compliments
bestowed upon me of late.

define rural and Northerner.

rural is surely well understood whether you linve N E S or W.

Northerner is far more subjective, someone living in Penrith is a
southerner to someone 19 miles up the road at carlisle!! somoene that
I knew once said there wasn't anything decent south of the M62, bit
harsh one feels.
But obviously Orkney and Shetland makes you fairly Northern, but is
that not also an islander, a scottish islander, is someone from Orkney
not a southerner to someone from Shetland?
