The next week or so continues to look at least a little wetter than average for the UK & Ireland, but with temperatures holding up near average. Still signs of a change to overall (perhaps not consistently) warmer & drier conditions sometime next week, while W. Europe heats up.

I regret to inform you that BBC Director of Comedy Jon Petrie, the man who successfully renewed #MrsBrownsBoys so many times, has decided to leave the BBC. Sad times indeed 😞

According to @BBCNews, fall in inflation was "unexpected." Last week, growth in country's economy was 'unexpected.' Unexpected by whom? These well-paid and so-called analysts and experts are obviously in the wrong job. #bbcnews
