No facts or figures I'm afraid but loved the fresh feel today.. only when it's like this do you realise just how warm we've had it so it's a nice change. Still hope summer has another go before we look forward to Autumn.

Not so much rain in these parts but less sun too - seemed cooler than yesterday. A colder night too.
