Mostly hazy sunshine here today just about reaching 16C - it's amazing the difference a month can make at this time of year - also the origin of the wind can make a tremendous difference. 

It reminds me of my wedding day which was on 04.04.1964 - we got married at Berkhamsted and when we emerged from the church we were met by a slight flurry of snow, fairly large flakes. 

That evening we caught the 'Honeymoon Express' which was a Viscount to Jersey where the following week was glorious - I hired a scooter for our travels around the island - don't remember feeling cold even though we did not have any motocycle kit, and at times we sat on the beach.

Where exactly do you live in South Derbyshire near Burton on Trent?  - as a young lad I was living with my grand parents at Belvedere Road in Woodville.
