Nooooo, say it isn’t so 😭
Was it all a dream???
After nearly 10 years of working together @benshephardofficial is off to @thismorning (he is actually just moving next door & we’ll see him all the time 🤣)
The fact so many people are so sad he is leaving shows how much he is loved and what a great guy he is.
A great presenter, a great advisor, a great drinking partner, a great hugger and a great sweet stealer 😉
Good luck Ben & enjoy the lie ins😘
I’ll miss you 😢

👗 What did I borrow and how did it look?
Keep watching to find out….
Our mission of wear nothing new for 2024 continues, we’ve shopped in my wardrobe, bough pre loved from charity. Then when I needed an outfit for an event and thought ‘I have nothing to wear’ I turned to a friend (well @charlottehawkins1 😜) to raid her wardrobe and then borrow something. We could have searched second hand or hired-but no need to spend time or money when there was a lovely outfit (I’ve had my eye on for a while) next door. #SharingIsCaring
And I loved it 😍 thank you Charlotte & I didn’t spill anything on it!!
Had a lovely time @blenheimpalace #IconsOfBritishFashion
Jumpsuit @coastfashion
Would you borrow from a friend or wouldn’t you like to ask?
👗 Did you know we’re buying no new clothes this year?
Here’s an update of how it’s going…..
……Well just over one month in, it’s been really easy-we’ve been ‘shopping in our wardrobe’ and wearing what we have! We’ve added a few charity shop purchases and will do more through February.
Have you been doing this? Do you have any top tips?
🎵 🎸 How many @bonjovi songs can you spot?
#BonJovi weather for @gmb
See @jonbonjovi @davidbryanmusic & Tico Torres I included your picks!

Collect your Easter egg foil & make it into tennis ball size to recycle it ♻️

This is what I’d look like on a stamp! 😎

Today the @metoffice & @royalmailofficial released 8 stamps to mark the Met Office 170th anniversary (mine isn’t quite as long 🤣)

🗓️ Why do we have a leap year?
Our modern calendars contain 365 days in a year, the time it takes for the Earth to orbit the Sun but the actual time it takes for Earth to orbit its star is slightly longer—roughly 365.2421 days.
🌍 The difference might seem negligible, but over decades and centuries that missing quarter of a day per year can add up. So every 4 years (nearly) we add one day on 29th February-a leap day.
🔭 Many ancient calendars had entire leap months to keep them on track. Back in 45BC it was Julius Caesar who introduced a leap day.
Caesar and the philosopher Sosigenes of Alexandria made one important modification: instead of relying on the stars, they would simply add a day to every fourth year.
🗓️ In the 16th Century, the introduction of the Gregorian Calendar marked the last change to the Western calendar as we know it today.
To keep us on track, not every 4 years needs a leap day-so they eliminated centurial years not divisible by 400 (1700, 1800, and 1900 were not leap years.
🎉 People born on Leap Day are called ‘Leaplings’
There are only about 5 million people in the whole world
the odds of being born on Leap Day standing at about 1-in-1,461.
So if you were born in 1980, you’d be 44 years old, but this would only be your 11th birth day (29th February)!
#LeapYear #LeapDay
⏰ Clock change this weekend
When?
Which way do they do?
What will that mean for us?
@gmb
🤩Wow! Just wow!
🤓Sooo much excitement when a group of meteorologist were greeted by this at the top of the mountain in Andorra!!
So when I filmed I got lots of the optical phenomena wrong!! We were all so excited we got mixed up-see pic at the end for actual names!
The big white ring was insane-We’ve never seen anything like it, I’ve seen a few of them a few times but separately, but to see them all together on a snowy mountain 🏔️ was surreal and magical!!

☀️ 🌧️ 🌈 Do you love the weather & stamps?
The @royalmailofficial have revealed eight new stamps to mark the 170th anniversary of the @metoffice and depict the history, science and future of Weather Forecasting
The subjects covered include the Terra Nova Expedition to Antarctica, establishment of the iconic Shipping Forecast in 1924, and Barbara Edwards, the first British female TV weather presenter

A ‘Potentially hazardous’ asteroid the size of a football stadium will ‘skim’ past Earth this week, said @nasa
-The asteroid, called 2008 OS7, measures about 285 metres/890 feet in diameter
-It will pass our planet at a distance of 1,770,000 miles on Friday afternoon, that’s 7.5 lunar distance (ie 7.5 times further away than the Moon is from Earth)
-It is travelling at 40,000 mph
-A ‘potentially hazardous asteroid’ is more than 140 metres and within 4.6 million miles of Earth
-There are millions of asteroids in our solar system, 2350 are ‘potentially hazardous’

Everyone’s easter holidays 😜
A break in the weather means a…
A ‘very nice day out’ according to @officialgarybarlow 🤣

☀️ Did you know that the warmth of the Winter Sun has a name?
APRICITY
We’re the only country in the World to have a word for ‘the warmth of the sun in winter’ and I love it. a blue sky day and you can feel those warm rays 😎
🥶 It is cold in the wind!
So funny, on my walk upto the office I found myself saying the same as everyone else ‘ooh it’s cold out there’

LAURA TOBIN ON THE CLIMATE CRISIS, CHANGES WE ALL CAN MAKE TO HELP COMBAT GLOBAL WARMING AND ARRIVING LATE FOR WORK
This week on the #MondayMile podcast, I’m joined by meteorologist, author and @gmb weather presenter @lauratobinweather 😎
Us Brits love to talk about the weather, so it’s fascinating for me when Laura tells me about her meteorological journey, including how she fell in love with weather, how she became a scientist despite failing her Physics A-Level, and the lifestyle habits that keep her energised for those bright and early morning bulletins 😵💫
We also chat in-depth about the current climate crisis. Laura describes her first-hand experience of extreme weather events, lays out what our future could look like, and shares some simple ways each of us can help to reduce the impact we make on the planet 🌎 It’s a refreshing level of optimism in these bleak times!
Huge thanks to Laura for such an informative and inspiring chat – I hope you all learn as much as me!
