'Loads' of weather revealed by Wikileaks

More weather than ever

Secret documents unveiled on the internet have shown that Petersfield gardeners have had to face 'loads' of weather over the past year.

More than 90,000 previously secret weather reports have been posted on the Wikileaks site, showing that entrants to Petersfield In Bloom were reeling from some rain, sunshine, a sprinkling of snow, lots of cloudy days and even a fair bit of wind.

'Who'd have thought it?' said one passer-by. 'All that weather in one year - wow!'

The leak was slammed by Blooming President Miss Rose Petal who fumed: 'This is just irresponsible! How many gardeners have had their flower beds put at risk by this nonsense?'

Weather tis nobler...

We are delighted to have received the following letter from four keen weather watchers...

To the chaps at Petersfield Newswire.

We should like to go public to thank you most whole heartedly for the valuable public service you provide.

We do not refer to your welcome reportage, which succinctly summarises and presents to us, in manageable chunks, the news that most affects us in our locale.

No, no. we refer specifically to the on-line weather forecasting system that has proved so incredibly accurate.

No need to listen to the boring old News at Ten any more, waiting for what seems like an eternity for some weirdo or floozy, with windmill arms, who is more intent on stamping their personality on their little three-minute slot, only to find that Petersfield's own distinct microclimate once again isn't worthy of a mention.

Each morning we simply get up (quite separately I would like to add), log on to Newswire, and look at the masthead to see what the day ahead will bring.

Keep up the excellent work.
