Sunny skies are back

A cool start but skies were encouragingly bright from early morning and remained fairly clear throughout the day.  Although winds were light, temperatures remained cool, although the sun, having crossed the equator now, is getting quite a bit stronger.

We went out to Southport for the day, where it was quite breezy on the seafront, and it's that time of year where I can't work out whether I need a woolly hat, cap or wide brimmed sunhat on!
