How many of those moaning so much about the "Barbeque Summer" being "wrong" actually read the Summer forecast and understood the limitations behind it?
I don't recall the Met Office representatives being over-eager to discuss the limitations of the forecast when they were lapping up the media attention at the time of the press release.
Not sure how many Daily Mail readers there are in the Met Office itself but I'm sure they've a few folk who'd jump at the opportunity to appear on I'm A Celebrity.
