You missed my irony, Scott. Teaching is an incredibly difficult job, beyond most in the MetO.

Especially with some ******* from OFSTED watching your every move.

Tudor Hughes.

You can never control your mouth, can you, hughes?

Inspection is necessary, to get the best deal possible for kids, but teaching is an amazingly complex and difficult job; as I said, far beyond most in the MetO. However, the pay may be comparable to teachers, after 10 years in the job, so why don't the MetO strikers who've decided decided their lot is not good enough, leave and re-train as maths and science teachers? If they are good enough, the teaching profession would love to have them.......but they would have to be good enough. Pay teachers more; they do an incredible job, as do junior doctors in the NHS.

How patronising!
Isn't meteorology 'an amazingly complex and difficult job'?
This is bourne out by how few times you dare to forecast at 10 days.

Patronising, but absolutely spot on. The MetO do not issue a forecast at 10 days for the general public, apart from a 6-15 day forecast, which is bland and general. Neither do they analyse any of their 6-15 day forecasts, so we have no idea of their accuracy. I think that actually puts me ahead in that one respect, don't you?


I am sure they do analyse them, just don't makethe results freely available.

Meteorology, is in no way as difficult as teaching, I can assure you! Again, you are conflating two completely different things. Twice in a day.


Twice in a day, eh?
Naughty Col!

You are upset. Calm down and think before you post, Col. 🤔🤔 I'm sure mitchell will step in here and criticise your spelling......

I disagree with you and that makes me upset?
What astrange thing to say.
