I trust you will not object to including this as many boaters use the BBC weather forecast, writes Julian Warne.
What really gets on my nerves is its telling of a 'heat wave on the way', that is just the normal high summer temperature, I keeping charts for of the weather, that I need for my business.
Our now being told the fourth heatwave is on the way, yet living just above Leeds none of them could really be classed as anything more than the normal summer temperatures. But no doubt they were London temperatures!
We took our boat out for a somewhat limited cruise on the Leeds & Liverpool Canal in the last 'heat wave' just taking light summer clothes, that proved useless in the Pennines!
Another thing is that you now never hear the BBC telling of a 'cold front' anymore. Talk about propaganda!
