We, here at The Taxman, have finally splashed the cash and hired a meteorologist. He will be giving us some extremely irregular seven-day weather forecasts that will hopefully provide our dear readers with the perspicacious knowledge required to prepare for the week ahead.

Heavens above, why do you curse us with this rain?

22 July 2006

Well Taxman readers, what a great summer it has been so far! Here is what to expect in the upcoming seven days.

Weekend

I am delighted to report that it will be a dry and sunny weekend with temperatures in the low forties around most southern parts. If you want to catch those rays, which may or may not give you skin cancer later in life, head down to the south coast where you'll be able to catch at least 20 hours of sunshine from a cloudless sky.

Monday

An area of high pressure continues to give us some glorious weather, guaranteeing an enjoyable journey to work, where you'll arrive with your shirt sticking to your chest and a bright red face.

Tuesday

There may be some ominous looking clouds in the sky which will be a concern to many, but there's no need to mention the r-word just yet. Fingers crossed it will stay dry overnight, but you better get on your knees and pray just to be safe. Temperatures remain high so expect to wake up in a pool of your own sweat once more. Enjoy it while it lasts.

Wednesday

Things take an almighty turn for the worse on Wednesday as that area of high pressure has by now moved on to central Europe, so those continental bastards can steal our sunshine. Yes there will be showers in some places, but most of those places are up north so not to worry just yet. The rest of us can expect a breezy start and temperatures in the late twenties. Better put a sweater on.

Thursday

Yup, you guessed it. We knew it would happen. It's going to bloody rain on Thursday, even in London. Heavens above, why do you curse us with this rain? Why?! Get your umbrellas out.

Friday

Rain, rain, rain - all bloody day. I can't stand it anymore! Lush, green grass; fast-flowing streams; clean, fresh air; replenished reservoirs; thriving crops; the key to life on Earth – I've had enough! I'm emigrating to Mali where it doesn't rain at all and life's just one big barbecue. Enjoy wet and rainy Britain, you losers.

And that's your seven-day forecast, have a great week!

You will find yourself consoling your mate this week after he gets fired. His suggestion of a night spent at a casino in town however will be poorly judged as he encourages you to blow your entire salary "because you still have one". The next day you will be declared bankrupt.
