'Paul the Weatherman' is a very snappily dressed bubbly character who reads the local weather forecast on 'Look North' For all us Yorkshire folk! You can tell from his enthusiasm that it's more than just a job for him. Anyway, people send him photos of weather stuff, and he put them in his latest book and makes loads of brass..........Nice bloke though.

Aint that the truth Longdogs, when I'm trying to answer some of the questions on 'Eggheads' and 'The Chase' I think "I used to know all that, what happened?"
I usually come up with the correct answers about an hour after the program has finished...I am finding that happens with most things these days though, I can still do everything that I could do at twenty one, it just takes me ten times longer..... And Mrs Fox just doesn't have the patience....

Apart from this summer, I've always got one eye on the clouds when I'm "rambling" to anticipate weather changes .....

I'm going to use that guide to sound like an authority on the subject to my colleagues .....

Same here Omah, between the BBC the night before and a visual inspection on the day I can usually decide which waterproof to pack in the rucksack. Recently though, there has been more room for sandwiches....

Just saw this LD sorry for not responding sooner he is the weatherman on our regional news programme in Yorkshire he is funny and informative. He encourages people to send him photos and comments on them, he particularly likes clouds being a weatherman

Did you bother sending the photo to him in the end foxy?
