Back to normality

A drizzly start to the day, a marked change from recent days, and my wait on the platform at Darwen Station was much less pleasant than last week.  The drizzle gradually lifted to low cloud, which eventually brightened in the afternoon, and the rest of the day remained dry if not particularly inspiring.
