Also yesterday I noticed my google desktop weather bar is a complete phony. It was saying the weather was nice and bright while clearly outside it was completely clouded over with just a dash of rain (the dash that turned into the hateful gonna get you rain today).

So, I was on the phone to the gorgeous Alison (you never know, she might be reading), and she was doubting we'd be able to play tennis on wednesday since it looked like rain etc, and I was saying 'oh, of course not - my superior google desktop weather predictor says it's fine' (I didn't actually say that, just that the weather was going to be ok, but it's leading up to my sarcastic comments about google's desktop weather thingy...), even though clearly all I had to do was turn my head 90 degrees left, look out the window and see that the weather thingy was wayyy off base.

Just as I'd said that, the weather thingy suddenly updated and went all the way from bright and clear to overcast with chance of rain! What! There's definitely some dodgy privacy issues here, since some spod at Google is listening in to my call, called someone up in Paris and said, oy, is it bright & clear, they've said Non, and they changed the google bar. Right there and then. Not even a cunning transitionary phase of 'bit of cloud, could get worse', just wham, straight into 'yuk weather, stay at home'.

Anyway, it still says nice and bright for wednesday, which is the main thing, because that means I'm still right about the weather and we *will* be playing tennis...
