I went to the field yesterday, haven't been for a while. It was good to be there. It always is. There were 16 of Philip's sheep grazing, nonchalantly in the chilly wind.
Dramatic weather, light shafts and long shadows.
Main reason for going was to deliver a load of campfire wood and re-roof the wood shelter in built last year. The rather flimsy corrugated plastic I had used didn't survive last winters winds and this is the rfist chance i've had to do the mending!
Happiness is a well stocked wood store.
Managed a quick inspection of our growing trees. The silver birch are the most vigorous. I reckon a couple of them are >12feet now. They love it there. Unlike the beech trees which seem to cower away in the plastic tubes, barely poking their leafy heads out.
