Turned out nice again

I don't know who made a catchphrase out of that but it seemed appropriate for today - a chilly start with high cloud that developed into a nice day with plenty of sunshine. It has been noticeably cooler due to a change in wind direction.  The good news is that the fine weather is set to last through the weekend!
