More of the same

Another drizzly morning with thickish fog on the hills above Darwen, visibility down to about 100-150 yards. Yes this is July folks!  The weather today was basically a repeat of yesterday - but worse! Temperatures a tad down, the wind a little stronger and more in the way of rainfall.
