Swansong?

It appears Tomasz will be on for the 23rd and 24th of October, for the lunchtime shift! Please, please, please can there be a Country Tracks then: Although there's little chance of a short-sleeved rugby shirt during this cold snap, but it would be a treat to see Tomasz in *those* jeans, maybe the last time for a while.

The 25th and 26th will see Tomasz doing the overnight stint-- so Shipping Forecast and BBC World-- Canadian fans rejoice for the latter (or wherever else you international Schaffanatics may lurk)! Also Radio 2, so a chat with the classy Janice Long on the cards for the wee hours of Monday morning. He also may be on BBC radio station near you (BBC Devon is often a good bet)

The 28th and 29th has Tomasz on the News Channel/BBC News At One, plus Radio 4 after You & Yours. Let's hope these appaearances will remind the Met Office and the Beeb what a superlative chap His Loveliness is!

Rumour on Twittersphere is that Radio Five Live are coveting Tomasz to be their weatherman. I hope my mentioning of this rumour, helps it to come true... my spies tell me that Tomasz was approach to do Strictly Come Dancing this year!

I can't see Tomasz appearing on Britain's Got Diarrhoea (confer this month's Viz). Let's hope he can do something for Children In Need? Let's Sir Terrence on the case. Even if he doesn't, the latest Janet & John CD is available from www.charitygoods.com-- Clinging To The Wreckage.

In absence of Tomasz this week, a bedtime story for you...



I did have a nice picture of Tomasz, but a little box says the image upload gubbins, is unavailable at present [comedy harumph]

Staying damp

Tomasz was back on telly today, and his caption said: "Staying damp", perhaps appropriate for many a devoted Schaffanatic. Or at least that's what it ought to have said...



I can only imagine Tomasz's caption writer is so excited by Tomasz's chuckle at the beginning, (s)he had a case of sausage fingers.



At the end of the News At One forecast, Tomasz wanted to "end on a positive note". His mere presence is a positive note of course, especially when he talks of showers "flirting" with us us, or the rain "coming and coming and splashing". And is it me, or does his suit struggle to contain his biceps these days?

Meanwhile Alex Deakin answered an oft-posed question, why do weather presenters wear casuals for Countryfile and Country Tracks? According to Deaks, is "to be down with farmers"! It appears that Janice {i} appreciated Alex's black jeans too. Of course when Tomasz wears jeans, a whole swathe of discerning gentlemen appreciate it-- some of which may be farmers.

Alex Deakin then informed us that his intials are ARD. I'll leave you to make your own jokes. Meanwhile will Tomasz make an appearance on Country Tracks?

Finally it's not just our Tomasz not has on-air mishaps on BBC News, Louise Minchin got all in a fluster over a.... dropped pen.



Thanks to Terratec and Toptellyfan for the uploads

{i} Not a farmer, as far as I'm aware.

Flirting with the south coast

I noticed on Country Tracks today, that Ben Fogle was going for the snuggly-fitting jeans look-- but of course he was no match for The Schaf!

Tomasz sporting a fine pair of denims today for the five-day forecast, with glistening buttons which caught the eye; conspicuous because the strain they were under, no doubt [wink]. He generously turned sideways to the screen plenty of time, giving us a nice view; just to prove I was paying attention to the Tomasz's report, it was the wettest November on record {i}.

Tomasz had a nice T-shirt today too, with an interesting-looking logo. Sadly we couldn't see what it was, or if it had any holes in it; he was wearing a white fleece-style garment over it, which both complimented and complemented his physique-- plus we got a cute smile at the end. Oh you do know how to treat us Mr Schafernaker, in these gloomy late-autumn days...



I love the way he talks about showers flirting with the south coast. Just for balance, Tomasz looking dashing in a suit and leaving us embued with optimism. The man is priceless!



Thanks to Terratec365 for the videos.

{i} There's a joke I could make there... but I won't

Impressive Pole

I know I ought to be refined, and discuss the finer points of Tomasz's bewitching presentation style, weather forecasting and jolly phraseology. However yesterday was a Country Tracks performance, and Tomasz was wearing his casuals; as ever, he did not disappoint.

I suspect that Tomasz must lie in the bath wearing his jeans, to get them to be so co-operatively taut. So nicely taught in fact, I'm sure we could see his other 'nether garments' at a couple of points (not talking socks or shoes either). He is certainly blessed with the physique to wear jeans in such a way.

Interesting white woolly pullover too, although that is not even quite enough to contain his rippling physique. Not that I'm complaining, keeps perve... err.. discerning viewers such as me, happy.

High pressure in the south

Tomasz did a sterling Country Tracks forecast today, I can only approve of the autumn attire: A t-shirt covered with a white pull-over really accentuated Tomasz's divine contours, and those jeans were flattering: It appears he's very 'blessed', if you catch my drift; reminds me of a draught-excluder I have for some reason [wink]. Nicely reared too, as the gentry might say.



Definitely an area of high pressure in the south don't you think? And the weather looks settled and dry for the week ahead too [wink #2]

Ta muchly to Terratec365, for the video.
