Default A degree of hype

Same here Tudor in Basildon, its now 15.00 and its just reached 29.3 Deg C
in the shade with a light easterly breeze.
We saw all this hype during the winter forecasts and I am sure its all this
health & safety legislation that drags this country down. Cant even buy a
good flykiller anymore and even the weedkillers dont seem to be as effective
in the garden.
It never mattered in 76, so why now???


What on Earth does "health & safety legislation" have to do with the
accuracy or otherwise of weather forecasts? I've seen health & safety
blamed for a lot of things, but that takes the biscuit!
