I have just posted something on the southern hemisphere at my blog:

Something I could have known about last April but I was too concerned with tornadoes and the onset of the hurricane season.

I have learned a lot since then, not least of which is that cod liver oil can assuage the symptoms of gout in a few hours, less if you are lucky. For this I thank a lad from Leeds and I apologise to you now for forgetting your name (Rob?). We only met for a few hours and were both busy at the time.. Many, many thanks and I hope you read this one day.

Point out to your children that you were a great help to one of the world's foremost thaumaturges in an hour of need. If there is anything I can ever do for you...





Forget it.

Anyone know if the climategate people have a weather library at Leeds, still?
There used to be an axillary there when we had a Met Office at Reading. It has all gone to **** since Thatcher the Snatcher, so I wouldn't be surprised if things have been got at wherever that place was.

(Not much chance of getting a decent alternative north of t' border now is there!)
