I know,cooped up in the house resigned to the fact that I’m not going to get much done on a rare dry day and it’s going to be horrendous tomorrow!

Tempting isn't it. But with no livestock I can't find an excuse to go out. What other industry would even consider working Christmas day cos the weather is nice ?

 

[Scholsey]

Who’s going to be the ‘hero’ lugging muck or slurry tank on this frost then?

No frost here. It'll take at least 10 days of dry weather before even considering field work.

 

[Wombat]

It’s just nice for it to be clear, cold and sunny.

Nothing we can do anyway without a week of this so enjoying the week off

Told myself the same....

I had booked Herself to move an electric fence and the Sucklers, although they did not take any moving..... FOOD!!!!! So they were happy to be out today, and not sheltering all day in a shed. Like us really...

Same here nice and dry didn’t make a mark. Filled four rings up with silage. Minus 2.5C here overnight.

Best fire up the muck leading or spreading this afternoon
Something aromatic for the local villagers

Took dog out at 9.30, she can't quite understand why the puddles are hard on top.

Family lower down in the village used to like taking out slurry mixed with silage effluent out on xmas day, it's a wonder they had any milk customers after that.

 

[serf]

Dried up a treat overnight in this frost , but only made the yard clean and dry , if go in fields you would fall straight through it
