Steady rain/ heavy drizzle here in east cambs right now. Spuds are just poking through in a few local fields and wheat has been irrigated down the road for the last week. Fingers crossed theres enough to do a bit of good

Was about 12mm forecast for overnight but only got half that, looks like we could get some more though today though.
Keeping stuff ticking over quite nicely, fodder beet are now visible down the rows and there’s a green haze over of canary seed so that’s promising.
