Small child had the rain gauge upside down so not sure how much rain there’s been. Won’t have been a lot tho. Nicely washed some fert in that I spread yesterday. Just wish Id had more time to get more spread.

Doesnt look to be much rain in the forecast after today, might be as well left in the bag the price it is, we had 3.5 ml rain , it will help the grass on even without fert.
We will spread the fert when it gets a bit more droppy whenever that is!

I got smashed by a bloody Hereford steer on Thursday giving them a bag on the ground outside just to help keep them quiet and he ran round and at me from behind and flattened me prancing round like a f**king angry bull trying to have another go before I got to the quad. Fine every day till then and since.
I'm still limping with a massive bruise down the back of my leg. I'll be glad to hang the f**ker up in a couple of months 🤬 🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🗡️🗡️🗡️🗡️
