    And they fertilise as they go along.

    Once played cricket on a field where sheep had been allowed to graze. I was fielding at turd man.

    Nice weather, don't need me coat.

    I'm well aware of Mick Box of Uriah Heep fame. Don't know if he ever played cricket, but do they play cricket in Denmark?

    The reason I ask is, and this is true, I've just read about a Danish bloke whose name is Knakkergaard.

    When I lived in Reading, in the seventies, there was a guy who rented out old and very used cars. The name of his company was U Hire A Heap.

    A week into a period of rain every day. Lawn and fields greening up as we speak. I'm sure I can hear the grass slurping.

    No torrential rain. A few downpours, but usually steady heavy drizzle. Ideal for getting everything wet.

    Well, 13 weeks after having those stitches in my leg, I've finally been signed off from the wound clinic. Never had a cut take so long to heal.
    Still got quite a bit of scar tissue around it and on the tendon on the outside of the ankle, but all good.
    To be fair, I never had any pain with it, nor did it stop me doing anything, just wouldn't heal.

    Glad you’re in the mend.,

    How are you and your daughter coping with the animals in this heat Remote?

    My local Parkrun is advising against taking dogs tomorrow so it must be tough on your small holding. Hope you have plenty of shade.

    Daughter and partner were at royal Cheshire show for 3 days. Back for a day and off to N Yorkshire for a wedding.
    Muggins is on animal duty.
    Tractor work to be done but I'm dawned if I'm going to sit in a greenhouse on wheels in this heat.
    Plenty of shade in the fields, but their water intake has gone through the roof.
    The sheep were sheared last weekend so they'll be cooler. Hope they stay in the shade and don't get sunburned.
    Lots of farmers making hay while the sun shines. Literally.
