Reckon we had that at Easter. I leave for work at 5.45am and it's supposed to be about 12°C - is it bollox, more like 7°C....freeze. Then it's supposed to be sunny and 22°C..... turns out to be 18°C and raining. I want a job at the Met Office...reckon I can do just as well on a forecast.

Weather forecasters and horse racing tipsters have the easiest jobs in the world, they fuck up on a daily basis yet still stay employed?
And totally ruin your day in the process, without any hint of an apology.
What's all that about?  :grumble
