    I would of been happy with this as a 1st cut 6wks ago given how everything looked then, that's only got a bag of urea and 0 7 30 since and that's it now coming out as an excess paddock ha.

    Second cut quality dropping away here ready to cut with a week and a bit but no dry spell to do it. Looking like we'll be able next week. Looking forward to the jobs for the week ahead. Taking tyres and plastic off, putting tyres and plastic back on, picking stones, pulling ragworth, picking more stones, pulling more ragworth..... we do have such enviable jobs at times!

    Second cut should be cut a week ago now dry cow silage I’m afraid. We’re taking a chance to mow tomorrow afternoon and Monday. Will tedd on Monday with chopper booked for Tuesday am. Smash and grab job

    Looked into a field today and for the first time in months I could see lush green grass blowing in the wind. We just seemed to have avoided all the rain up to now.

    I just happened to look at Google maps this evening and switch to the satellite view.
    For here the image is just from about four weeks ago. It's amazing the differences in colour it's able to show that you wouldn't spot on the ground.

    Aran islands look well too. :pac:

    The guy I renter my field out to told me yesterday he'd be up Friday to cut it.
    I hope he has a chance to do it.

    All forecasts seem to go for positive trends from this weekend onwards for better weather. Not tropical heatwave or anything but dry and temps of mid to high teens, which will do nicely. No need to be writing it off just yet.
