Is that the sun in your pics? Was this THE sunny day of the year in the UK?

D,

It was the sun, and hurrah for that I say. Here in Manchester we don't get much sun which is why I wanted a photographic record of it.

I'm jealous. You get dafs when they should be popping up their sunny faces. Mine were dead and gone by end of January, with months of cold gray rain still to go....

Hayden,

I get the impression it's cold and grey where you are. I thought California was always bathed in sunshine and the people were always happy. I've heard every song done by Scott Walker and by the Mamas and the Papas so it must be true.

No sun in Manchester? Where does it go?

Lovely daffodils, I saw real ones once.

The topography of Manchester is that it lies cupped by a circle of hills that stretch eastward from the north then down the east side and swing west. Manchester sits in the middle of a left facing C. Moisture from the Irish Sea moves East following the prevaling weather pattern and rises when it hits the Pennine mountain range whereupon it unloads its water onto... yes... Manchester. Mind you we never have a drought, which I suppose is a good thing.
