    It was a lovely sunny day and a journey to see Tornado was almost mandatory. There was only one obstacle, I had an eye test appointment in the early afternoon - would I have sufficient time to get to . . . ? The nearest spot is Leyland but I'm...

    The morning had dawned a little misty but this soon cleared and the sun emerged, some clouds gathered but it was a predominantly sunny morning. However, towards lunchtime the clouds thickened and rain looked a distinct possibility. We have had...
