Local news

Isn't local news great? Whenever I come home for the holidays I'm always reminded how much better Gordon Burns is than any of the Midlands Today people. And at lunchtime you get to play the Gordon Burns weather game, which is where the first letters of the place names on the local weather map spell out a word. Today's word was eclipse.

Aaaaah, NW Tonight, with its always predictable lineup of:

Murder (in Manchester)
Murder (in Liverpool)
Murder (in Lancashire)
Drugs, Guns, Violence, Attempted Murder (regionwide)
and finally
Kittens!

Miss it.

NW Tonight is special. My small village's finest hour was when we made it onto Diane Oxbury's weather map! (We made it onto the traffic news as well, but they managed to misspell the name of the place.) Great in its own, inimitable way.

Lucky people. We've never made it on there when I've been watching.
