All i can hear is Jim Trott saying "No, no, no, no, yes". "But not as big as the great storm of......" Still my miserable fucking neighbour is going to get a shock when the rotted fence post goes down with the two panels either side of it. It's my responsibility to repair it but he can piss off till the spring.  |

There is NO hurricane. Michael Fish was on the radio last night while I was driving back with a short clip wistfully describing how forecasting is so much better now than it was then. I almost felt sorry for him. A long career in meteorology - and all he gets remembered for is 'that' forecast. He's never been able to shake it, poor man. |

I have laid the birdtable we have in the back garden out horizonally on the lawn. This is the extent of my preparations.
I'm a survivalist.

Have just noticed that next to our block of flats is a building site with a lot of stacked up pallets and tiles and that sort of thing.
Wouldn't fancy being one of the lower flats tonight.

But he is remembered. How true is that of any other forecaster? It has almost given him a strange sort of national treasure status. |

It's usually marked in the deeds to your house/flat. |

John Kettley has semi-legendary status in our house, thanks to my singing this to the boys one holiday a couple of years ago:
Although he did morph into a waterpark rather than a weatherman once the boys adopted it  |
