Under the Weather

Its a crappy day. The weather has turned full circle and the cloud is down and it is piddling down. I suppose we need it to top up the water table ready for summer but I would have liked it to wait until tomorrow at least. On the first of May we have 7 horses coming to graze down the fields for us and provide natural fertilizer for them as well. I have to get the fences sorted and the water trough in place and can't do it in this weather. I got most of the perimeter grass sorted and cut so that it doesn't interfere with the electric fencing but I still have a bit to do. It's always the same with animals though isn't it? Always something. Still, the bonus of having the horses here is that we get to ride them for free in exchange for the the grazing. I reckon that is a good deal so roll on the sunshine so we can get out for an evening hack in the forest and watch the sunset with a glass of chilled chardonnay. It's a hard life, back to varnishing the landing floor then to some painting .............. toodle pip
