Headline News

Headline news- the weather. Hurricanes and floods that come close to a biblical scale aside, there must really not be a lot of news happening if the leading news is the weather.

A bit of snow is always a sure thing to get some headline news. Reports from around the country of how people struggled to get to work. Cue footage of traffic jams and people waiting for delayed trains. Because of course these things never happen in the rush hour usually. And thanks Mr weatherman for telling me to wrap up warm this weekend. How would I ever function without your valuable advice.

It’s the same in the summer when there is a so called heat wave. [a heat wave in summer? Who would of thought] Some dick of an anchor man is on the beach in some run down seaside town sweating in his suit asking people who have flocked to the beach what they think about the weather. “Ooh it’s so hot, you don’t need to go abroad when you have this sort of weather do you?”
Well you’ve convinced me. Why go aboard when you have Southend-on-Sea?

And yes I know it’s cold out but after all it is winter. It should be cold!
Complaining about the cold in mid-winter is like complaining that public toilets smell of piss.
Not that I hang around public toilets of course.
