Weathercocks

Summer has arrived! Pour yourselves a large gin and tonic, find a nice patch of garden and relax with the weathercocks.

This week the Beast from the East has brought extreme wintry weather to Britain's shores, the likes of which we haven't seen for years. It's been a snow lover's dream, but if you're a tad intrigued as to why it's all happened and what part storm Emma has played in the action, then the Weathercocks are here with the answers in the form of a funny little song. N.B. this podcast is also suitable for fans of monastic chanting.

Is there more snow in the forecast? How big would a building have to be to have its own weather? Do the weathercocks still think "The Schaff" is alright? Answers within!

As the first snow of the winter falls outside we have a nice long ramble chat about weather in films: crazy weather; inaccurate weather; weather that stills the beating heart of the silver screen and jolts it back to life with a lightning flash! Then in one of the heartiest helpings of pudding in this podcast's brief history, we rip off The Bugle and go on a competitive pun run, featuring some of the squirmiest puns ever to pass human lips. Enjoy!

Update on the recent snowy weather in the UK, brought to you by the Weathercocks.
