Obviously it’s still 3mph from the south west of you are a sprayer driver ? but what are you seeing it’s a bit tame so far in the Midlands. Like a normal day in Cornwall

hardly that bad and it’s similar to being in Cornwall here, most of October/November was like this :rolleyes: hence why I don’t have trees.

Might be a different story when I get outside if there’s suddenly a lot of problem sheep like Twin lamb disease etc, taking 5 bales out to the sheep and moving 2 electric fences on turnips will be fun mind....

In my case it's listening to the tattle of the gable end on the old barn roof....:oops:

The Lab poked her nose out of the French windows and went back to her bed! Tempted to do the same...

Yeah yeah... we know you just want the wood!! :)

I'm off to do the rounds as my Lad is still here, so if we have any road trees down, I have help until 2pm!

Well I've just driven down and back up the M5 - its a bit windy out there. Multiple accidents and a car on its roof. We had a max here on 58mph - it felt like that and more in Gloucestershire on the motorway.
