Shall we start a 'Weather Exchange'? Maybe a nice side-line for @Forage Trader... that written, be careful what you wish for, we had nothing from mid-May until the end of July. Brilliantly, now doing a lot of groundwork and foundations and have stone ready for gateways... but I can't go on half the place for fear of ploughing. :D :banghead:
