Had a bit of work to do outside for an while this evening marking out a bit of a field. Chap rang me from a half hour away saying it was raining so I jokingly said to put the rain in the boot & bring it here.

Well it started pouring fcuking rain about 5 mins before he arrived & constantly at it the entire time we had to be out! Soaked now.

We have actually been fairly lucky, though last Tuesday night there was a shower so heavy I got a leak in my roof

Did he break the bonnet on the back of th e loader or is that some type of guard to stop grass going into it?

One of the drivers reversed into a trailer, did a nice bit of damage without even looking at the cosmetic side of it.

A good loader to carry grass, that pit is fair high there and didn't knock a stagger out of it. The grass is fierce dry as well so that helps too.

We had a light drizzle for about 20 mins before lunch. It was just enough that they joined up to cover the concrete in the yard.
I was driving home later this afternoon to NCD on the M3 and there was a good spell of rain from the Oldcastle to Navan junctions. Unfortunately the rain didn't reach as far as my place.

Not a drop here. I had a 90% of rain at 4pm. That's moved to 1am. I'm after spreading fert, probably burn the fecking place now.

I'm fed up looking at the rainfall radar watching heavy rain pass both sides of me. If I had silage down it would be stuck on top of the place.

Lucky enough I was doing a bit of whitewashing yesterday and it bought on the rain

Wind here all morning

The North easterly hasn't brought much rain to North Clare so decided to cut the main meadow with the idea of baling tomorrow. Would have liked to leave it till next week but no real settled period on the horizon so decided to get it done. Crop not as good as last year but not too bothered as I have a good 65 bales from last year all the time.

Bit during the night, nothing today. 80% chance of rain apparently. Showers forecast for the rest of the week. Just not getting them so far.
Much rain up there?
