Got round to re-doing the gateway that I axed and widened during haymaking to get the baler in, 2nd cut now sufficient to actually provide some food for something which would have escaped without a gate there.

Driving around a couple of new-to-us fields with the concrete mixer on the back.

There were tramlines from the last tenant, the GPS was in the concreting tractor and I needed to know the area for spraying glypho as the landlord had no idea at all - in fact they said 50 acres, I made it 35.......... it used 38 acres worth of spray later.

Many Happy returns.

As said above the years get quicker.

In 'Time' on Dark Side Of The Moon the line "Then one day you find, ten years has got behind you, no-one told you when to run. You missed the starting gun"

I know that this is historic music but it needs hearing by everyone young - pity I didn't listen properly when I was 21.

Sadly, next year I shall be 60 which I find very difficult to believe.
