The Weather forecasters have as much idea about tomorrow as do most of the informed guessers , it may be cloudly if the Sun does not shine who can tell.

Read once that some parts of the world are easier to forecast than others independently of monitoring and modelling sophistication. Aus is, apparently, one of the more difficult areas, the US one of the easier ones.

I imagine forecasting availability of energy in the UK is becoming more difficult especially when coal mining is being restricted by carbon dioxide emmissions limits and political limits on nuclear.

Thanks mate. 40 mins by train to central London is good. Your driving times are good too. Must say, surprised you want to leave but each to their own.

This was posted before. Can't believe anyone can actually believe that this tells the situation as it will be in the future.

I would take a look at the economics of power generation. Gas is not the only means of generating power, or even one that we are reliant on over here...

By George, you ARE brilliant! Of course, Hemp! Enough of it and the British will see through their shallow materialism and drastically cut their power consumption, the crops will EAT up carbon dioxide and the cows will go back to being sane again! Well Done. Take a smilie and a wink
