As for what's getting my goat...... the foccing weather predictions in this country!! How in this day and age can the met office still not have a damn clue what the weather will be like more than 10 minutes ahead??
I'd have better lick flipping a coin than listening to the weather report.
Tonight for example all day we have been forecast 'heavy showers' from 5 till 11. So cancelled our planned ride out with my mates but here I am sat home and not a foccing drop of rain to be had!?
And this is about the 5th or 6th time this month I've either cancelled planned rides for no reason or been caught out in tropical typhoons on 'sunny' days
Honestly.... they couldn't predict night time at sunset the bunch of useless twats
Don't get me started with that lot.
BUT use their app it has a 6 hour historical rain radar so you can make your own weather forecasts with reasonable accuracy and no super computers in sight.

Yeah I use their app..... that's the bludy problem Haha but to be honest I only use the hourly forecast widget on my homescreen, I rarely open up the full app and use all of the functions.
Just annoys me they cant be a bit more accurate with it for at least the same day. I've literally been stood out in biblical grade rain while the met office app is predicting sun with a hint of cloud ?
