    Cloudy and cold with a chance of showers and a moderate breeze from the south west temp 11c feels like 10c, not much change for the day.

    A very good morning to you all. Good Friday today and I just feel that Easter has sneaked up on us very quickly indeed. It still looks a bit dismal outside and the forecast is not brilliant for this weekend. If I can get into the garden for just short burst of activity then that will do for me.

    House Martins, Swallows & Swifts
