Grey and miserable

It's weekend, and after a sunny week, what do we have?  Rain and dull grey skies!  Overcast through to mid-morning but then patchy rain set in and stayed with us for much of the day, becoming more persistent for a time in the afternoon.  Drying by evening but still cloudy and dull.
