Last week we were invited to a friends new home & garden , we were able to identify all except one shrub for him , I didn't have my camera with me so asked him to email a photo to help us identify the shrub it arrived today , this is it ! I'm afraid it's a terrible photo ,I'm hoping someone will instantly recognize it . It has leaves like a Gooseberry shrub with yellow flowers ... Thanks .

Looks like Golden Currant (Ribes aureum), a North American native. It's common in northern Arizona, otherwise, I would have had as hard a time IDing it as MG!

Funny you should say that Tug after spending ages trawling through photos on Google I had come to the same conclusion , Thanks for looking MG ...
