    What’s your gym routine?

    Looking at the country you farm you would get fit by plenty of walking and running a bit. For Upper strength get one of these and chop a few Trees down and cut into lengths rather than use a chainsaw

    You need Baler Twine for fencing , old gates and pallets and a good supply of rusty barbed wire. That is all you need. :giggle:

    dew ponds

    Well the ones i know of on the Downs round here mainly fill by collecting rainwater. Dew alone would not fill them. I am sure some deeper ones tap into Springs but the shallow ones were just shallow saucers lined with puddled clay.

    Haymaking 2024

    As far as i know the forecast always said chance of Thundery Showers Sunday in the South and remaining showery into next week. I always go by what the text says , not the App or website automated forecasts. i.e. currently. Not a Haymaking forecast especially this late :cool: South West...

    Brian May- badgers

    Yes it is pretty pathetic of Brian May that he did not show his opinions being challenged by Peer reviewed backed opinions from leading Vets and scientists. My estimation of him has plummeted and he now seems a bit of a whining bitch.

    So…… summer

    There would be huge local variation due to Rain Shadow . In a mostly Westerly wind any ground immediately in the lee of Mountains and Hills can be astonishingly dry.

    Haymaking 2024

    Late for hay now . Forecast says rain here Monday. Not seen anyone making Hay round here. Just 2nd and 3rd cut silage. I cut some Wild Flower Meadows today but it will only be bedding quality.

    So…… summer

    Yes , quite possibly . It was amazing the other day when we had the haze from the wildfires in the U,S,. The Sun and Moon were tinted and you could smell the traces of smoke in the air.
