"24 hour news. Got to have a label for their fear mongering so they got the met office to name storms. Twats. " Remember the storm of 1987 … ‘why weren’t we told and prepared’ etc 🤷♂️ So if people aren’t informed … we complain … if people are informed … we complain! We live in a world of graduated risk management now, on the principle of inform and prepare. Personally, I’d rather know in advance … rather than … ‘where the fuck did that come from!’ However, I do agree that the media have a lot to answer for in sensationalising everything and over reporting … cos it’s a story!

"Wind is above 70mph at the minute and to increase in the next couple of hours. All schools, shops and businesses are closed for most of today and a do not travel warning issued. I've seen the widespread damage done with recent storms and trees across roads and swathes of forest brought down so this is going to be much worse. I'm just waiting on the usual social media pics from the top of a mountain or along the seafront from the actual twats." In the 30 minutes since I wrote this the windspeed has increased to 92mph so it's no joke. | |||

"I grew up and lived in Blackpool for many years so I've seen a bit of wind. What we used to call a bit of a blow is now sensationalised with a name and 24 hour rolling news cover as if it's the apocalypse. A few slates will be blown of, a tree or two will fall over and someone will lose an advertising board. It's a winter storm. All will be well tomorrow." Ha ha exactly When o lived in Blackpool a few years ago a little friend of my daughters that weighed about 10 Kilos soaking wet took off as we went round a corner onto the front! Lucky I was holding her hand honestly. We’d have been on Sky News today! | |||
