Extra, extra, read all about it now.

Oh, baby.

Extra, extra, read all about it now.

Oh, baby.

Yeah, that was me coughing there.

You know what?

I'm not even going to stop and start again.

Why would you do that? It's Monday. Good morning. The 8th of April 2024. It is your BBG with you. I hope you had a terrific weekend. Whatever you were doing, whether something exciting or just chilling as I did for the most part of it.

It is another wet and grim and grey morning here in Salford.

They're telling us we're at the tail end of Storm Kathleen.

Did you laugh out loud Friday at some of the hysterical coverage in the broadcast the media about a storm? I was going to record some of it and use it in the Richie Allen show this week, but I couldn't be arst.

Arst is a technical term, by the way. Look it up. It has its own entry in the Oxford Concise Dictionary.

There was a guy called Chingi, I can't pronounce the gentleman's name. He's the young reporter

for Sky. Chingi Marriyiki, I think his name is. And he's a pretty respectable and presentable and professional reporter on the spot for Skye is

Chingy. He's been around two or three years, but he gave me belly laughs on Friday. He was in

Blackpool where it was a little bit bloy. That's all really. And he said, storm Kathleen. And then he said,

this is the first year on record where we have reached the letter K as earlier as this in the

named storms part of the storm season.

So I laughed out there.

So we should be very, very scared.

I mean, this is proof climate change is real.

We've never reached the letter K as soon as early April, ever.
