Default Loved this in UKMO's Cold Weather Alert

Advice: Prolonged periods of cold weather can be dangerous,
especially for the very young, very old or those with chronic
diseases.

If you want more information about how cold weather can affect
your health please visit www.nhs.uk. If you are concerned about
your health or somebody you care for, please contact NHS Direct
on 0845 4647, www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk or your local pharmacist.



Hmmm. Thank God for that advice, otherwise those tens off
millions that read the UKMO web site would have died......... Do
these F&^%$ing idiots realise how ridiculous they sound?


I suspect that the blame should go to the NHS, who presumably wanted
that to be included, rather than to the Met Office.
