You may recall from my last missive, Tomasz was in contention for Radio Times's best weather forecaster poll. As you have probably gleaned from title, our man was triumphant with a 15.1% vote-share-- beating Carol Kirkwood (AKA "Schmirkwood") into second place (4.9%).

Calling all Schaf-fans! The Radio Times has a poll to determine the best weather presenter of all time:

You know what to do... as good as those other weather(wo)men are, Tomasz surely commands your vote.

Radio Times
The lastest edition of Radio Times, features a large feature about the Great British Weather programme, airing next week. BBC weather forecasters past and present appear, including The Schaf.
Tomasz pictured with Carol "Schmirkwood" Kirkwood, in some cute shots. So impressive is His Loveliness, he appears inside the front cover too!
The magazine is also worth buying, because there are fun interviews and photoshoots with other forecasters; such as Alex Deakin {i}, Laura Tobin, John Kettley, Bill Giles and Michael Fish and others. The Radio Times edition in question, is out today.
Meanwhile, Tomasz has been having fun in the Blue Peter garden...
{i} In shorts, on a deckchair, for all you Deaks fans out there.

Va va voum
Many thanks to Matt for informing me about this: Yesterday on the News At One, Tomasz did an excellent ad-lib on that broadcast. He talked of weather having "va va voum" {i}, before switching from French, to an Italian-style hand gesture (akin to Gino Dicampo). I missed that!? Whadda mistake-a to make-a!
I've investigated the comment by John Barrowman (about Tomasz) in the Radio Times. At first it does sound like a dig "the last person I wanted to meet" [LOL], but actually the reverse is true...
I don't see why Tomasz needs sympathy because of this [scratches head]? I've never understood the issue people have with John Barrowman. I can understand that some people find him irritating on a personal level, he can be too 'full on' for some-- fair enough
However I note some object to him on a 'political level', usually these groupthink self-appointed voices of that pernicious fallacy, "the gay community". From what I can tell, the objections are because he's happy in himself, honest and out... but camp with it-- apparently that's not 'correct' behaviour. Well stereotypes exist for a reason, just go down to any pride festival or a gay bar. Anyone would think JB had burnt committed genocide or something-- what harm does he actually do? Beats me.
Besides there are people who aren't "stereotypically" gay in the media, such as Scott Mills... although I've heard these people complain that Scott isn't enough of gay man. I can only imagine these detractors have a chip-in-their shoulder, because they're insecure about their sexuality or define themselves by it-- and irked by public figures who are happy and secure in their sexuality [a psychologist writes...]
Laissez-faire I say: I like you John, if nobody else does: I think he's warm, indivudal, affable, intelligent, talented, fun, charismatic, harmless, compassionate, fun, charitable, amusing and a positive person. All the attributes I'd admire in Tomasz in fact... except for Tomasz is even/much better looking than JB
I can well imagine why John Barrowman wanted to meet The Schaf, and take him out for Sunday lunch-- I bet those two make a superb double-act. John Barrowman is very priviliged to go for dinner with His Loveliness {i}!
Sadly I'm don't move in the esteemed circles that Mr Barrowman does; nor do I possess his charisma, so the likelihood of my meeting Tomasz is low alas. Probably just as well, because I would be so nervous and probably a gibbering wreck! I'm sure Tomasz just as adorable off-screen though and a tygrysku.
Finally it appears that Dan Corbett will be doing Country Tracks tomorrow... so "little troublemakers", "lumps of treacle" and "whoosing" to be had. Tomasz is on overnight; just before 00:30 on Radio 4, as far as I can see. That's the blog, for now.
{i} Imagine getting beef, a couple of Yorkshire puddings and some warm gravy off Tomasz. Oof.

Mixed salad
I'm worried for Tomasz, he may get Janet Street-Porter on his tail now! The Schaf used the term "spits and spots" today; the usage of which by Dan Corbett, gets JPS all excited. Sadly Craig Charles doesn't share the admiration of the Dan C, given the fomer's unwarranted needling of the latter on Radio 2 this week. I hope Janice Long returns before long (pardon pun).
Anyway, back to His Loveliness with his mixed weather and groping hand motions. But what's this... he mistakenly called Scotland "Wales". Yeah he corrected himself immediately, but he should sacked immediately for his outrageous racism and burnt as a wicker man on the Outer Hebridies. Yes.
Even if our szkcoki friends aren't so keen, I'm pleased to tell Tomasz he doesn't just have admirers from Scotland, Ireland, England, Poland, Ilse of Man and the Channel Islands... visitors come to this blog far and wide. You're well loved in Canada it would seem.
I hear that John Barrowman has mention The Divine One is the Radio Times this week, regarding JB's Saturday show. I get the impression he has made arch comments about our hero, I shall investigate! Nobody denigrates The Schaf on my watch, you don't want to make him angry....
