Cold and cloudy

If it was January then we wouldn't be saying it was cold.  But it's June, and a high of 12°C is really quite pathetic.  We've had some generally cool weather now, excepting the odd short spell, for several weeks now and it's about time the weather got its act together.  Hopefully that telling off will do the trick, folks.  In the meantime, today's been another dull, overcast, cold and breezy day, the only saving grace being that it's been dry.
