Rain but then brighter later

A mixed bag today: cloudy all morning but little sign of any substantial rain like it was forecast.  Rain did arrive by dinner-time, though not much, just some isolated little showers, a couple of them quite heavy.  Then in the afternoon the cloud lifted fairly quickly and before long there was plenty of blue sky and sunshine.  There was always still some cloud about, but nevertheless a pleasant end to the day.
