The rain has been bucketing down here, again.
Much of the croft has at least an inch of water sloshing over it, turning into rivulets and then streams as it washes down the hill.
On top of that, it’s blowing a gale with trees losing branches, rubbish blowing in from all around, and buckets blowing away whenever I put them down.
And the temperature hasn’t gone above 4.8C all day.
And we’ve had three sleet showers.
So, if anyone wants a bit of wet, cold and windy, I’m more than happy to share…

Ta mate, but I think I’ll pass. We have more than enough of those kind of days at the moment in Southern Tas, it is our spring here. I am trying to keep our chooks out of the mud, I already have one girl on medication for coccidiosis. We had 36 hours away from the farm last weekend to find chooks ankle deep in mud. Murphy’s bloody law.
