Just a few miles West of you Bob, and 50mm would be welcome.... ?

We’ve had over that now and it will do us to Oct, at the earliest

 

[jondear]

Another 9 mm today added to yesterday is 30 mm enough to do something!

Warm though . Good growing weather . Second cut has grown in a day.

Nothing really today in the end, and the rain forecast for tonight looks less and less likely by the minute. Saturdays rian has been downgraded to 15% chance of a shower ?

H2O makes all the difference.

Bought this yesterday.............................................View attachment 883862

Just noticed this! Well done. Good car. My independent Volvo man had one in (56 plate) that a young lad had bought on flee bay for £1,500!! One area of the body was a bit iffy but otherwise cheap soft top. Apparently older ones have rust areas. Mechanics are usually bomb proof if serviced properly

 

[Martin Holden]

So on we go , rain comes and it's gone bitter cold again .
I'm a right moaner. Just hate to have to stop wearing shorts now I've started. How inconvenient [emoji848]

I know the feeling

Seems OK, just a budget weekend toy, but plays a nice 6cyl tune around the lanes................

Is there plenty grass in ayrshire?

No problems I think . Big cut of silage on the holms next to me , about 3 weeks ago and although a little barren for a few days afterwards , there is now a thick bottomed 2nd cut growing.

I measured 38.5 mm of rain in May though.

I never had a lack of grass in May and June through drought - only ever from poaching. In 2010 we had six weeks dry which ended about the 1st of July - still had some grass though. Mind you there wasn't a rock outcrop on the farm , only bottomless clay.

Bit different from the east side
Grass stunted here and lots of poor brairds

Shame. 24mm for June already here.
