I’m supposed to get T1s on next week. I put the row crops on and now the tramlines have been refilled with water. The LGP tyres would flatten too much crop. Every job is turned into a mess. Lambing has finished but the lambs really aren’t enjoying this. Chimney renovation at a standstill as can’t get two dry days in a row. Tiresome.
 
35 mm in rain gauge this am, 8mm yesterday !!!
i was in the greenhouse yesterday afternoon when it came down so hard I couldn't make a run to the house. Mrs Fred arrived back from Devon and said it had been completely dry on the roads until they reached the Hampshire sign about a mile away, then the roads were running with water.
