Seems like I'm not such a regular blogger, my mind seems to go blank when I try to think of something to write, but think I need to comment on the exceptional weather here, been high 20s for 3 days now and no rain.

Fields looking a bit bare after the first crop of silage has been taken, and the lambs, so prolific for the last few months are getting scarcer in the fields and appearing through the local livestock mart and from there onto our plates. Very nice but very expensive.
Brambles looking good in the hedgerows, I think a bumper crop this year, they're starting to form very nicely.

The mackerel have put in an appearance, reports of buckets full being taken from Whitehaven pier, makes me wish I could get the old rod and reel out to go and catch a few dinners.
