It could be a New venture driving round with a pop up bar/delivery service to your local villages

Well, it did rain after all.

This was the total. I tried to catch it all in a barrow.

Geese have really hammered some spring barley in the last week despite my best efforts. They eat it at night and when I am not looking, they are totally immune to any form of control, they use scarecrows for perches....

Have taken a couple of weeks off to plant my winter ( cool season ) crops.
Starting on the bread wheat, then the durum & will finish off with chickpeas

What's the idea of painting trailer floors?
Never dunnit.

Mainly to stop the rust getting any worse but it also helps the load slide out in a low shed.

 

[glasshouse]

Tried a different method for this fat boy

Ha, ha, I just looked him up and if I jumped in the truck at 9.45 , I could be sat eating them 5 mins before you got there.

 

[Farmer Roy]

Well, the summer “cover crop” of “weeds” did it’s job, providing ground cover, protecting the soil, sustaining the soil biology & capturing & saving every mm of rain that has fallen.
Now I have a full profile of moisture & it is time to plant bread wheat into it

Moon rise, perfect cold clear skies tonight

looking back towards the sunset
