You've read the forecast now buy the Met Office tee-shirt to match your mood... Oddly there doesn't seem to be a sunshine one. Just woe and clouds and lightning. Go figure...

I was kind of taken aback by a tee-shirt ad on the Met Office Mountain Weather forecast page this morning. Yep, the Met Office is selling tee-shirts based on its weather symbols, mostly the gloomy ones... It's kind of an odd blurring between the commercial and a publically owned institution. Odd.

Anyway,the collection's a cooperation with a tee-shirt company called Rapanui - I've nicked the image above from their site by the way, please don't sue us, you might sell some tees as a result, maybe... - and there's a range of tees and sweatshirts to choose from in both men's and women's versions.
