there's public WiFi. It's down it a fiction called air drop on one of

these, iPhone, the idea is really you're out with a friend. The take a

going to be a lot of dry weather with sunny spells around. The winds

turning lighter as the weekend goes by. Here's Saturday's forecast:

Starting with a dry note and sunshine. Cloud bubbling up. It

could bring passing showers. For many of us, it will be a dry day. In

the sunshine, temperatures into the low 20s, which should feel pleasant

enough. Then, some reasonable weather on Sunday. Then what do you

know? I think I might have found summer. Look at temperatures on

Tuesday. summer. Look at temperatures on

Tuesday. Hello there. Lots of showers around

today. But it looks more promising as we head into the weekend both

Saturday and Sunday we're going to have spells of sunshine and showers

tomorrow, fewer than we've seen today. Maybe a chance of rain into

the south-west later on Sunday. This was today's rain, though. We had
