Did anybody hear Ronie Corbett pretending to do the weather again this
morning on radio, ? what a laugh.
Outlook rather cold ,portions of the country getting a dusting of snow like
the Highlands of Scotland getting up to 15 cms .
I think they should get Ronnie Barker back too,at least he could put it to
music as well.....

Unbeleivably they gave him the Country File slot. Not only did he
obviously have little idea of what he was talking about, but he also
kept looking up into the corner and sounding like he had lost he
place. In the end the only information I got from him was I should get
a parker and wear mittens!

Why let what used to be the most detailed forecast on TV be let down
in this way. There are still some farmers, growers and walkers who
rely on this to plan their week.


Some farmers and growers in Devon now use my web site for planning. Sad isn't
it.
The Internet is the future, TV is rapidly becoming just entertainment value now
:-(
