Last summer we decided to only post pictures backed with radiant blue skies. This was to create a slightly unfair impression of England being a country basking in delicious summery weather without any cares.
This summer we really don't have a choice, the weather of late has been ridiculously generous and, like many others, we have grabbed every opportunity to get out there and enjoy ourselves.
Anyone who has ever tried to capture that 'child on the swings' moment will, I hope, appreciate the following shots.
