Don’t know exactly,father was strimming and smashed rain gauge with a rogue stone [emoji85]

That tells its own story!I would have had one ordered off amazon 5mins later!

Not had any rain over weekend here in Gloucestershire. Put off contractors to cut for silage on Friday due to weather forecast. Cutting 100 acres tomorrow so expect it will rain then!

How short of grass are you?

Probably shorter than you from your pics a day or so back

To be honest I’m never too worried about it,no point stressing over something i can’t control

 

[farmboy]

I still find it mad how different our weather can be considering the distance between us as the crow flies

Sure is, apparently there’s been flash floods on the bypass between puddletown and Dorchester yet we’ve had nothing like that here

Any idea what to do with a cow with a nose bleed which keeps coming back. She has had her forth calf in January is giving 44 Lts and is back in calf 60 days would like to save her if I could.

How long has this been occurring?

 

[fermier]

She had her last bleed 10 days ago and before that about 6 months ago she seems to loose quite a lot of blood each time for a few hours before it stops.I should have said she has had a nose bleed today.

So twice a year? Jeez I got nose bleeds as a youngster twice a week for just sneezing. Glad they didnt give up on me.

Let her go, she will be fine

11mm for May

So far. We had a taste yesterday, not sure how much exactly, enough to wet us as we put on the silo cover, at least there wasn't the usual wind as soon as you open the cover up

Cracking morning for making dust.
