This years weather

[DerekJ]

In this exercise, you are to assume that the summer's start and the end temperatures were as recorded this year BUT without the dreadful months between.

Given the start and end points, your task is to construct the temperature curve over the season and speculate what would have happened to the UK over the summer period.

You can include (but not be limited by)

1) The wrong kind of heat bringing the railways to a halt

2) Fuel stations being emptied due to excess blatting by irresponsible car owners

3) Carol Kirkwood, wearing a bikini, in the (ex)Blue Peter garden shouting Scorchio several times each morning

4) Power stations overloaded by air conditioning units or excess B&Q profits due to the sale of air conditioning units.

5) Greek debt worries ignored in the UK as everyone is at the sea side sitting on deck chairs, knotted hankies on their heads, trying to lick ice cream before it melts.

Answers to the Boardroom as soon as possible please.

Fraser, I get it but it was none of the above.

It was the wrong type of snow!

OK so it was high 20s in the spring and mid to high 20s in the late autumn. If this was a "normal" year  what temperatures could we have expected to see in mid summer?  35?

If this country experienced temperatures of 30 or above for a couple of weeks I think that it would grind to a halt just as it does in winter when we get an inch of snow.

What do you think?
