Hell of a storm over mid Kent tonight, lightning, wind, heavy rain and hale, don't wish to think what my rape and peas will look like tomorrow!
Has passed over me now, but watch out for my rape pods and dust in the wind. never seen anything quite like that, it was a dust storm which would have fitted in well in the american dust bowl. Spose it's one way to deal with the blackgrass, export it on the wind:LOL::LOL::LOL::LOL:

If you bg seeds land there they will be in good company just hope my broom rape seed don't travel in reverse. You may have to google broom rape as its hard to explain but as a pulse grower you certainly won't want it in your soil!

Quite dull here yesterday though, an not really hay weather today either:scratchhead: We are only what 25 miles from you?

Went and cut about 30 acres today nonetheless, looks as though it will need baling on Wednesday come whatever
