Shawbury
More recently, (2004 - 2008ish) Grianne (hope the spelloing is right). Lovely lady, great sense of humour, very nice personality, wonderful Irish accent that melted the guys hearts, always smiling. We were sad to see her go.
Never forgetnight brief back in the early 90's (before IT briefs). Met man came accross drenched and placed his slides on the OHP, he turned to look at the screen and said "oh! sorry about the mess, I used a water soluble pen and didnt know it was going to rain" cue much laughter.
Then the black flag brief given by the met office. They produced some stats that disclosed that 45% of their forecasts were accurate. The question was asked "Why dont you reverse your forecasts and you will be accurate 55% of the time?" = 1 dumbfounded met man.
