    Oh dear no need for my sunhat today.  Cloudy all day so UV2 again.  Going to stay cool too  No rain forecast for us till later so should get some work done in the potager.  The currant bushes need some weeding done and mulched with compost.  I still have some of last year's glut of blackcurrants in the freezer.
