Okay this the usual low level of my typical posting, and I guess against the
backdrop of the Asian earthquake tsunami disaster, a tad inconsequential .
However, watching BBC breakfast news this morning (obvious, being breakfast)
I noticed a Carol Driftwood remark which made me think "well what is it to
be, good or bad?".
As Carol was giving the forecast, she made reference to some very mild, in
fact much higher than average temperatures forecast today for parts of the
UK. I think she said at one stage something like, and of course in her usual
style "there will be some luvverly beltingly high temperatures today".
Well it was obviously meant to convey how wonderful it is to have such high
temperatures. Now if we really want high temperatures than surely we should
welcome global warming.
If on the contrary if it's felt that high temperatures are bad, see the
BBC's report.

Then why the hell are they asking their forecasters to smile and give every
impression that unseasonable warmth is good, and then get their journalist
to have a right gob on, when covering a Global Warming news report?
Inconsistent if you ask me.
Warm is bad warm is good, warm is bad warm is good
