Oh what televisual annoyment: what is the BBC playing at having their weather maps of the UK in beige? They have been perpetrating this crime for a few years now and they are showing no sign of repenting. Let me put it simply... beige is the intuitive and internationally recognised cartographical standard for things like desert and beaches... why would that be I wonder?....perhaps it's because it is the colour of SAND??!! It has been even stranger over the non-stop rain and flooding of June and July to see a weather map that looks like the shape of the British Isles cookie-cutter-ed from a map of the Sahara Desert.



This crime is almost as bad as the one they perpetrated during the eighties by starting to say 'an' infront of words beginning with 'h's. You BBC idiots! Doing this if your style of speech means that you drop your 'h's is perfectly correct, but they did not, in their efforts to pervert reality they used 'an' and pronounced their 'h's crisper than ever. Now I have to suffer hearing decent, otherwise intelligent folk, every so often saying awkward things like 'an hotel'. Yuk. Could their pretty little BBC news-reader heads have been confused by expressions such as 'miles an hour' where everyone drops the 'h', or did they did they do it deliberately to mess with peoples' heads?

I'm not going to get involved in the classic argument about one of the worst and most cretinous perversions of reality, perpetrated by a certain crisp manufacturer... because the gets have obviously just used the salt and vinegar packet colour for cheese and onion crisp packets as a cheap publicity stunt, so I'm not going to fall into the trap of giving them a free plug here. I never buy wrongly colour coded crisps, and I suggest you do the same. It's the only way to teach these people a lesson.
