The Met Office......

[herthab]

.....is full of useless cunts.

There I was, eagerly anticipating a scorching August spent largely lazing on beaches in Devon because we were told that we'd actually get a fucking summer this year and now the incompetent pricks have changed their minds and are forecasting the usual washout.

If they can't be more accurate they shouldn't fucking bother.

[Simon Pieman]

The 'heatwave' was our summer.

I am completley repulsed by the vile weather

I refuse to take off my gladiator sandals though! even though they go all slippy and horrid in the rain

It better start getting sunny for V festival - I dont envisage wellys as part of my attire!

You don't want to fuck with the Met Office, they'll hunt you down.

Hyacinth Bucket sprang instantly to my mind then.

Did you know that the Met Office, had moved from Bracknell to Exeter?

[Phil_S]

That makes sense. Given that most of our weather comes from the South West. They can now go outside look at the clouds, stick their finger in the air & make the foecast. It'd be a just as acurate.

Shouldn't you be out selling The Big Issue, with your dog tied up with a piece of string?

 It's a good point, but I rather like the idea of taxpayer's funded jobs, being based in shitholes....it's only fair, what do they do all day anyway...a euro met office would surely do the job.

They shouldn't try to be so clever.It just isn't possible to predict the weather months in advance.

I was away on my holiday in the Scilly isles last week and the weather was great six days out of seven.Come back home and its awful,i had three layers and my slippers on last night,i wore a coat and a hat to the West Brom friendly   

Oh well,where we would be without the weather to moan about

Got a job so stick it up your arse you bald cunt

My garden mission this year has been to sort out the lawn.  And after ruthless scarification, weeding, feeding and buckets of lovely rain, it's actually starting to look rather lush - despite the presence of the hulking great beech tree at the bottom of the garden.

A silver lining to those ugly grey rain clouds.  Hope that helps.

[Jamiesfuturewife]

Not helping mine and Larwoods wardrobe dilemmas thought is it Ardiles??? huh???

I refuse to get my Ugss out!!

[Ardiles]

This is true.  And do genuinely sympathise with your Ugg-related predicament.  (You could always get a pair of wellington boots and paint them Ugg colour, maybe?)
