If you'd ever seen Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, you'd know.
Absolutely lovely now and has been for an hour, or so. Sunny and warm, out of the breeze. If the farmer hadn't been muck spreading today, it'd be perfect.
Absolutely chucking it down here. Saw it coming on the radar and in the distance over Salisbury, so thought I'd get the grass cut before it arrived. Job done and feeling smug.
Then my raised bed wood arrived and I helped the chap shift it all. We both got soaked.

His card had three addresses on it.
*Stormforce~beka* The pack said my grass seed was bird resistant.
If you're struggling to get it to germinate, mix the seeds with some compost. Put it all in a bin bag for a few days, then spread it. The birds won't bother with it then.
Perfect on the patio now.
Just been over the river to take my water sample. Met an older chap and his wife over there, who live in the next village. Don't know them.
Anyway, he asked lots of questions about what I was doing and in the end he gave me his card offered to give us £200 for more kit.
*Stormforce~beka* No, in the field that takes me to Downton in the mornings.
It's been flooded all year, then the farmer put the cows and calves in there, who promptly churned it up. He's now moved them.
Not bad here. Bit of high cloud around, but it's Sunny enough. Much cooler than yesterday, although it's a lovely 18C in the greenhouse, so I'm staying in there until it warms up a bit outside.
