Does RTE still do the weather forecast from Blarney Castle? ;-)

Don't malign them, I have it on good authority that they took delivery
of a new piece of seaweed only last week g

In the short time we've lived out here, it's become apparent that we
should look at the waether forecast as giving a general auggestion of
what might possibly be going to occur. Frequently, the weather that's
predicted passes right over the top of us and goes on to (rain)
somewhere else.

We're about 8 miles from Bantry - to get there we go up & over a
reasonably high mountain pass. The weather 'that side' is often
significantly different to what we get 'this side' - so the idea of a
weather forecast covering even the south-west of the Republic is
really quite laughable ....


Macgillycuddy's Reeks? Remember the Goons going on about that?



The good thing is that we seem to get changeable weather - so if you
don't particulary like what's happening at the moment you only have to
wait a few hours for something different to come along....

I can see that the Irish perspective on life has started to reach you
already. Good thing.
