It was very fortunate that I managed to get all the paddocks cleaned up this morning as later in the day the rain became torrential - wind was also fierce at the top of first field - quite calm at the bottom! Here are Belinda and Barry Norton in a beautifully clean field - before the heavens opened.
Before the rain came I also spent some time peering at Bert's ears, trying to see if I am imagining the hair growth.
Unfortunately, in the photo above, she would not prick her ears up - but I am hopeful still. Greeves retreated to the shed as soon as the first spot of rain hit him and remained there chewing all the hay he possibly could while I sat in the Mule with all doors firmly closed,, knitting. Sam is in trouble tonight though, as I think it must have been him who has picked the plastic stuff off a couple of little screw holes in the roof and now cold drips fall on me periodically.
