Not much happenning yet......

So I gave the grass a bit of a trim.................
I reckon, that in the history of the whole wide world, this particular bit of turf has never, ever seen a lawn mower!!! So, this was a first and almost certainly the last time it was ever going to happen! I had to swerve to avoid the odd cow pat that had survived from a few weeks previous, but all in all, it looks pretty good. I expect this time next year it will look like a first world war battle zone, so I took a picture of it, just so I could remember what it used to look like...... Don't know who that fat bloke is though....

Finally got it finished today....

So I started round about 10.00am this morning, got all my tools together, lugged them all out into the field only to find that some ******* had nicked my wire!!!!! Now, on the basis that a herd of cattle arrived earlier this week, and there are tyre marks (tractor tyres) leading to and away from my posts (at the precise spot I left the wire....40quids worth), it's my guess that we know who the culprit is!!!!

I imagine I could get myself in some deep water by naming him here, but we know who you are........

Anyway, thanks to some sterling help from Geoff (Father in law) and an amazing bit of ingenuity from the good folk down at Hallwood Farm, who invented and made a very simple but invaluable tool for stretching bits of wire, I got the field fenced off and hopefully cow proof, by about 4.00pm.

Shan't bore you with pictures of my piece of grass, but I will enclose a picture of Noodles, who has been out with us all day, and found that rolling in cow pats really can be quite good fun!....This is her shortly after her shower.
