June in Manchester

A grey day in the office in Manchester. As the icing on the cake it pissed down especially hard on the walk to the car.
When I headed back home down the highway to happiness (aka M62) I arrived back in the land of L postcodes to sunshine. So we went walking the dogs in the woods past 4ft yellow irises (a rare extra photo today), and watching flocks of swifts hunting low over the meadow.
A day of contrasts indeed.
