Across the UK, across continental North America,

and around the world on the internet by webcast and by podcast,

my name is Howard Hughes and this is the unexplained.

Fairly spring-like at times, although the skies,

I can't bear those dull grey skies that we have in wintertime.

We've got a lot of those, but a lot warmer than I remember

November being when I was a kid. Look, when I was a kid,

I was a little bit more than a kid.

I remember my memory of Liverpool,

November's was some frosty, foggy, crispy and cold.

Bonfire night where we do the fireworks here in the UK.

Always being a freezing cold icy night, you'd have to be careful about

slipping over on the ice. Well, there's none of that now.

It does feel very much like spring at the moment.

I'm recording these words in an evening time

and I'm wearing a t-shirt.

Admittedly with a scarf for comfort and reassurance around my neck,

but that's it. Unheard of some years ago,

so weird weather, but no more talk about the weather, okay?

The news is all about, apart from the result

with the ongoing debate about the US presidential election,

which I'm sure will be ongoing as you listen to this.
