Posted by signmanMaybe we should e-mail them, "for the Birmingham,Brighton,Lichfield and Reading weather ,tune in to Brummies Talking."
I certainly think it would be more accurate, and I think I would do a better forecast by looking out of my window at night. I'm sure that is all most of them do anyway.

Well, I've just got back from galivanting around in the rain, (it's p**************g down) and now I'm just going to do liver,bacon, onions and mash, and gravy, and read the latest edition of Digital Photography magazine.
What a night,the wind was whistleing down the chimney and the sash window was making a lot of strange noises but discovered I had not closed it properly,no wonder it was so cold LOL.
Felt a bit too close to nature LOL
What a boring morning..Dr first then the Dentist,my gums are so sensative I had to be a really brave little soldier,Lord did it hurt..she reckons the worse is over now LOL
Fancy making up a real fire but I think will have to get the chimney checked first,would be nice for Christmas.Have been thinking about a wood burner to cut fuel costs ??

It was pretty cruel last night, not the sort of night to be out at sea. I bet it was a bit rough down by John. I don't think you will find you make much savings on a coal fire or a wood burner unless you have a back boiler fitted as well. They were little diamonds those little back boilers, its amazing how many people had them took out to have gas fires fitted.

It was really rough Phil, picked an old lady up who got blown over, and the shingle is everywhere. Thought I'd do a you and change my avatir, but I've only got one photo of me, taken in Malta about 15 years ago.
