Damn, can no longer edit previous post, but just found out how 'soon' new The Thick Of It is starting... 8th September, 9.45...:woo: now the tough decision, to do a marathon of them on the DVDs I have, or on Netflix? :?:

Sounds awesome either way!

Must be great to get away with so much incompetence.

and I suppose you have a 100% record of predicting things in the future. Fact is that climate change is making weather patterns less and less like they ever were in history in similar circumstances, which is bound to make the weather harder to predict. Get over it and move on.

I couldn't do any worse. Quite literally. Today is predicted SUN for afternoon. Looking at the sky it appears more grey cloud, with a chance of some showers ...

The BBC have sun forecast

Scottish TV have more showers developing

The Met Office tell me heavy rain for the whole day (already inaccurate)

The BBC main weather site have heavy showers developing for around 1600 hours, even though there TV channel forecasts bright sun.

And you wonder why people get pissed off.

Wound up unexpectedly in the countryside yesterday... Nice bit o sun where there were supposed to be heavy showers.

Also, me and a local farmer have an ongoing mystery. There is a grassy bit where I sit - all flattened, then we have discovered another two? Yet I am the ONLY person to be seen in this area. The farm thinks it may be DEER seeking a hiding place to sleep.

PLUS, should be getting on the kids' flumes later on. They have brand new water jets, and I can hardly wait.

The WEATHER !! Again!! There are, once again, FIVE different forecasts. I am working like lightning this morning, coz I want to go out on my bike. The Met Office tell me I won't be out on my bike past 4 pm, so am having to race to be in the countryside no later than 1 pm.

F* Saturdays.

Your world must be something like the reverse of this

Also, thought you weren't listening to the MET Office, seeing as they, in your own words, 'always f***ing get it wrong'...

Also you got confused in threads again, surely your ranting should go in the Sucks thread?

Good luck. Hopefully you will still be on here. anyhow, had a great day. followed advice of the met office and got out the countryside just in time before it chucked it down. Rest of the afternoon was brilliant..... Sunny, good music and nice company. Good scenery. also, when it did start raining, had a really random conversation about food for cows ... Cost of buying v cost of making. great day, and i love the met office again. plus, i think i am quite well prepared for a meeting on monday, with lots of stuff to ask about. :)

(and now for a double post, brought to you by Nikolai Baker)

well, I officially live in that Yorkshire now! Move was tedious, and I still don't feel like I'm fitting in considering I don't go out clubbing or anything like that, but I've escaped Norwich, so I'm definitely in s better place than I was!

if your a Leeds local (Nati/Timsk =P) and fancy a quiet one down the boozer, preferably one which does cock...tails, drop me a PM xD

    • Less so with 5 Live. But with Nihal, Nicky Campbell and Mark Chapman get what you are saying.6 Music does have that with Huw Stephens, Mary Anne Hobbs, Gilles Peterson, Marc Riley and Mark Radcliffe
    • Agreed, Martha seems to quietly taken over as host of the Tuesday Bass and Big Beats show that Annie Nightingale did would be good to have some promotion to be done for her show. Agreed with this on bank holidays on a Radio 1 dance day inpaticular would be quite good to have Sarah Storey, Jaguar, Jeremiah Asiamah, Charlie Tee and Martha presenting. I always felt that in Christmas and New Year previously having Victoria Jane to do a Future Soul take over playlist.
    • To be fair to him, this week and next week he’s on his podcast tour which was arranged well before he started on R1. After that I would guess he’ll start being on everyday? 
    • It’s Jamie’s dream of a lifetime to be a full time Radio 1 presenter apparently, but he can only do it 2 or 3 days a week. 
    • Radio 1 generation meaning??  Today's 10-30 yr-olds? I doubt it. They'll still know Pete Tong though, because he is rhyming slang!
    • There was a time when everyone knew Zane Lowe or Annie Mac or Judge Jules or Dave Pearce or Annie Nightingale. Does the Radio 1 generation know the current bunch?
    • Looks like it's off to Preston! 
    • Would be nice to give more presence to the specialist shows over bank holidays. Surely the best way to promote new music credentials over anthems? As much as I accept it's very popular.
    • Peak radio 1 ! I agree with Bluestraw there was huge presence by specialist presenters then , certainly something I think radio1 could do more of now. Remember the takeover where specialist DJs would swap into main shows for a week? Or do we recall In New DJs We Trust, the competition on Chris moyles show where the winner would get a DJ set at radio 1s Ibiza weekend, and that is how Danny Howard’s radio career starters
    • Yeah. He started on R1 in the late 90's when they used do the 'Sessions in the Nations' where they used to split for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. He then moved to daytimes, firstly on weekends in 2003 then they replaced Mark & Lard on the mid afternoon slot in 2004.  Then he moved to late evenings as a specialist DJ.
    • Thanks for sharing that - I don't think I've seen it before. Didn't realise that Colin Murray off of Countdown and R5L used to be on R1! Several other current R2/R5L/R6M names there too.
    • 29th April has updated to show Dan back as presenter but still Nels in for Alyx on Introducing Rock. 6th May schedule has updated to show that the Radio 1 Big Weekend Shows will now be the following: 6am-10am 10am-2pm 2pm-6pm 6pm-8pm Still no presenters listed.
    • Where do we think Radio 2 in the Park will be this year? Personally I'm thinking Swindon after Scott's clue of it having many roundabouts and since Big Weekend is at Luton I can't imagine they'd go to Milton Keynes.
    • Yeah, I feel like they need a big push on Jack to cement him in his new position. But it shouldn't just be Jack, you've got Sian and Alyx for instance, who are relatively new faces.
    • Now in it's third week, the new Capital Breakfast Show seems to be settling down well and there are more of the informal, random Jordan topics appearing.  Though it is clear he wants to be seen slightly differently. It really is a very decent listen.
