Current Weather at Strickley

Saturday 20 July 2013

All go

The contractor has come with his forage harvester and trailers and pick up has begun. Henry is whizzing round ahead of the action "rowing up", and trailers of grass are now coming in to the pit where James is buck-raking. The heavyish breeze could be a bit of a problem as the grass is blown around as it is picked up and directed at the trailers. But, mustn't grumble. Just be thankful for the dry fine weather.

I've been packing up packed lunches - ham buns, sausage rolls, crisps and yogurts. Plus plenty of weak orange squash of course. I don't think they would comply with the latest government guidelines for healthy lunch boxes. There is a bit of lettuce in the buns as a token gesture.
