Ο Καιρός Τώρα

The Cyprus Meteorological Service provides some helpful advice on t'weather, including a report on what the weather is like right now (just in case you hadn't noticed). It went a bit chilly this afternoon, particularly when clouds blotted out the sun. Night has now fallen and there is a full moon - the Meteorological Service website confirms that this is indeed the case. Of course, one of the delights of the BBC is the Shipping Forecast and thanks to the wonders of modern technology, one can now listen to it at any time. It used to be one of the markers that I had stayed up too late if the Shipping Forecast came on the radio, which would mean that it was five to one in the morning. But it is a sheer pleasure to hear Charlotte Green at any time. Fellow Beatles obsessives will know that they owe a lot to their producer George Martin.  One of Sir George's other projects was 'The Master Singers' who had a couple of minor hit records round about the time that The Beatles did Revolver, namely The Highway Code and The Weather Forecast.  Go to Batesline for more about 'The Master Singers' and to listen to an mp3 of the The Weather Forecast.
