I know I'm tempting fate but when is it going to rain ? No doubt when it starts it won't stop but it would be nice to have some mositure soon ! No grass, crops struggling going to have to start feeding sheep before long !

Our local forecaster on the local station has said that its the driest May in the SW since records started at least.
It's the Easterly wind through the daytime that is burning everything out now again.

Cattle men are soon going to struggle I fear.

Turf are in good order all the same, a lot in the shed already
For fuel do you mean? I suppose if its cut too far ahead like a couple of years or something it would shrink too much?
if I had time I should be logging for next winter.......would dry nicely that for sure...
