Funny that Simon, whilst Francis has a slightly odd manner ,I find his
forecasts and broad pictures very informative ,quite unlike Ms Willets who
strictly follows the party line ,and always with a smile, pretty irritating.
Good job we are all different innit ?

Hi,

Well I'm sorry Helen, I'm not usually one for nitpicking but you
really must keep a close eye on the final news item preceding your

Nothing, but NOTHING compares to the sheer stupidity of that Francis bloke
on Sky News! He kept trying to make his 'forecast' relevant by telling us
that the weather in the areas that were hit by the tsunami were hot "of
the sticky sort". Thanks Francis. I'm sure we are all glad we now know
that and it makes so much difference :-( He then goes on to deliver one
of his trademark forecasts which tend to blow more hot air than actually
give us any indication of what the weather will be like. 'Favourite'
moments include him waving his arms about in the general area of France,
Italy, and possibly the rest of Europe saying "There's some rain around
about here". Just HOW has that guy managed to stay in work?!
