After a cloudy cold start, by 10am it was lovely and sunny. That continued all day, but rather cool.

Very cold start to the day. Did have some rain during the night. Looks like there was a sprinkling of snow up on the moors.

A cold night producing ice on my ponds this morning but a cracking sunny day by way of compensation.

I thought it could be quite 'mild' on the East Coast of Scotland; 3° lower than London it says here:

(rubs hands) Right !!! ........... 2 weather tales about Scotland:
Was in Drymen one May (south shore of Loch Lomond) and due to drive to Mull that morning. Drew curtains at The Buchanan Arms (wee plug there
) and it was snowing 
. Panicked !!!!!!!!!
We were all for cancelling the journey, which involves driving across The Rest And Be Thankful - errrrr, how can I put it, 'picturesque' at the best of times, when someone suggested 'phoning the hotel on Mull to see how deep it was there.
Did so and the chappie didn't know what I was talking about: beautiful sunny morning here, quoth he.
So we went, crossed TR&BT (still snowing), caught the ferry in Oban, sunny and calm, and enjoyed a superb holiday on Mull.
Was in a timeshare place at Kinloch Rannoch (you can rent for a week but they try to get you to buy - no thank you), right on the shore of Loch Rannoch, facing south. This was in early April and it was hot. The national news said that Fort William, about 40 miles as the crow flies, was the hottest place in Europe !!
One of the days we were there, knock at the door (we were on the balcony, paralysed by the heat) and it was one of the young chaps trying to sell apartments. I complained spectacularly that there was no air conditioning. He was quite taken aback and said, "It's no' always this hot" in a defensive and aggrieved tone.
That sentence, "It's no' always this hot", entered Fambly folklore for many years to come
