To have a conspiracy theory...

[pointythings]

I reckon the energy suppliers have harnessed the technology that controls the weather. So first they give us a long, cold winter so that we spend £ loads heating our homes, and then they give us a long, sticky-hot summer so that we spend £ loads cooling our homes.

I'm going to do a rain dance outside on our trampoline.

I think you're onto something although whenever I have moaned about the weather it's been a lot df has said to take it up with the government seeing as they own and control the weather df blethers a lot of shite but hearing that 40 times a day I nearly believed him

I think you could be right, I also think if they hadn't of privatised utilities all new builds would have solar panels.

Atmospheric Geoengineering

Kirjava now I'm worried...

Though miffed too, I mean, if they can do all that then why isn't it a pleasant 24C during the day, with a nice breeze and some clouds, all rain to fall during the night to keep holiday makers and farmers happy?

Pointy - because then we wouldn't spend nearly as much on emergency fans/air con or heating etc as mentioned above! My oh is another who is fond of this subject amongst others (think David Icke) and I have to say I do sometimes find myself almost believing him........

I blame the lizard people.

But YouTheCat that makes no sense - lizards don't like cold winters. Although I suppose they could hibernate. Maybe we should all just hibernate, that would sort the feckers.

Hopelass David Icke is waaaaaay too far out for me. I stop on the borderlines of the X-files.

Icke blames the lizard people too, so it must be true.

It's the illuminati/lizard people. Lizards only lay eggs in the summer July-September...isn't it weird Prince George Alexander Louis is a July baby? I bet they needed a really hot summer to get that egg hatched quickly.

Yanbu. Look up. See the chemtrails they are spraying everyday in the sky? They are controlling the weather, no doubt. Don't even care to duck or don a tinfoil hat. Look up HAARP.

History Channel report on the Devon flooding disaster of 1952

If you could harness the energy of children on trampolines you could power your home for free :)

Everyone knows that rainfall depends on how much washing is hung out before going to work.

"Survivors told how the air smelled of sulphur on the afternoon of the floods, and that the rain was so hard, it hurt people's faces."

Fanny knows the truth

I think energy producing trampolines would be a blight on the landscape. They should only be allowed in the inner cities.

I'm off to setup a Facebook campaign

Scratch that, perhaps energy producing trampolines could solve the energy crisis and the obesity epidemic.

Oh, but what happens when the kids get lighter? More kids? Bigger trampolines?
