Should have posted this on Weather, but thought it might get more attention on here.

Are most of us fed up to the back teeth with this present awful weather? Freezing temperatures, snow, sleet. rain and high winds.

I put the blaim on playing about with climate control. I say bring on climate change, global warming and the green house effect. (at least over these isles).

I suggest we all go out and buy ourselves a gas guzzler, as many patio heaters we can afford, and throw away those stupid energy saving light bulbs, etc, etc,etc

And while we are going down this track I much prefer to see the ruddy robust smiling faces of the true right winger, than the pale sullen faces of the liberal leffties who seem to hold the rest of the worlds troubles on their shoulders. Life is for living lets all get on with it, we only come this way once.

Yes, bring on global warming. I heard that London will disappear below sea level eventually.....can,t wait!
I too am very fed up of the weather but then I am of the opinon that anything below 25 degrees (C) should be classed as freezing.

Alas global warming is something of a false advertisment to the best of my knowledge (gained from Jake answering a question of mine I think) as it messes around with our seasons but does not guarantee long hot summers. I mean if we're going to mess the planet up entirely it might be nice to get some bl00dy fringe benefits.
There's a guy in New Zealand who's often on radio here in Ireland, and he offers a weather forecast service based on historical weather and the moon phases at that time - reckons if it affects the tides, then also the air? Anyway, he's been on for a few years now and is uncannily right every time, down to the exact day.

He's predicted a colder wetter summer this year, with some bright periods.
He has a website - wish i could remember his name!

Is this him by any chance Whickerman? here

(too much time on my hands thanks to the weather)

yes aog I'm thoroughly fed up with it...I try not to let it get me down - weather happens & there's nothing we can do about it - but I've had enough of being cold, wet & buffeted about now. I thought twice about buying a thick padded coat, hood, fur etc in the late autumn but so glad I did... I started wearing it at xmas & I haven't had it off since.

the old jokes are the best :o)
It's never been the same since that Charlton girl stopped giving us weather.

Yes the Old Jokes ARE the best'. ''My brother-in-law has a Wonderful doctor - He gave him 6 months to live. When he couldn't pay his bill-he gave him Another 6 months'' Boom boom.
It's quite sunny down here. A few showers, sure, which are annoying but otherwise it's quite nice.

You realise that global warming would make Britain colder, right?
Yes Krom. I think that's what i was trying to say in my own little way.
Robinia - that's the bloke. Gets it so right they keep having him back.
Get a life man . If it was sunny for a week you would be you would be on ere saying you want rain. !!!!!!!! uk and irish have the best weather not too hot not too cold.
I've been avoiding the impulse to respond to this part of the OP for a while, but seeing as AOG is actually the one who brings it up:

And while we are going down this track I much prefer to see the ruddy robust smiling faces of the true right winger, than the pale sullen faces of the liberal leffties who seem to hold the rest of the worlds troubles on their shoulders.

Can I be the first to point out that you spend quite a high proportion of your time on this site moaning?

Also, it's usually right wingers who insist that society is collapsing who are miserable company rather than Liberals. In either case, you're being rather silly and not a little melodramatic here.
Never mind the rain, sleet and snow. We have just had thunder, lightning and hail stones. The sun is back out now. Wish it would make up it's mind, then I'd know what clothes to wear!
