Hold onto your socks because it's going to stay windy. Get it? Wind sock? Get it? Sorry.

Hold onto your socks because it's going to stay windy. Get it? Wind sock? Get it? Sorry.

It's weather time with Phil Duncan but first let's talk about Dom's theme year for The Country - 1976.

Dom George and Phil Duncan weren't born then so they decide to discuss the 80s instead.

Credit cards, computers and VCRs all started for Phil in the 80s and the pair reminisce about the exorbitant price tag of the sought after Mitsubishi Black Diamond VCR. 500 bucks? Daylight robbery!

Why are we here? Oh that's right...the weather. Get used to those westerlies people.
