The problem is that when we had floods etc a few years back everyone shouted that the Govt had not done enough/anything.
 This way, by crying wolf everytime there is a drop on the old barometer they have meetings, fill sandbags and generally try to panic everyone and the media laps it up. I bet there are OB units all over the West Country and Wales to bring us "up to the minute" reports.
Doesn't matter what they do. If it rains it rains, if the wind blows it blows ~ there is bugger all we can do to stop it.
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.

Bring back the weather czar (Tsar).... Old wotsisname ~ Dennis summatorother. Wilson appointed him ... an ex footy referee .... oh come on you must remember.

Anyway him .... he sorted it. Week after he was appointed to resolve the drought crisis it was pissing down. I always wondered if he did a rain dance in the Cabinet Office or something.

What was his fvcking name?
