Much improved

A much nicer day than we've seen for several days now; a little rain in the early hours but then much of the day was dry, sunny and warmer.  The sky gradually became hazy by tea-time as a band of rain began to move in, but with sunshine and much lighter winds for the most part, the weather was much improved.
