Just made my blog before my end of month deadline!
I expect that you will be expecting a good old moan from me about the weather in this blog.............the sun is shining this morning :-)
It is the weather that makes farming so exciting, you try and make plans but someone somewhere can put a spanner in the works so easily. It must be so boring being a 'Mr. Supermarket' when you can fly produce in from overseas when the local supply is held up with the weather.
Iain is still busy picking fruit, we are just getting started in our late tunnels which should give us strawberries through until early November!
Willie, the contractor who cuts our grain, is tearing his hair out trying to cut bits and pieces between the showers. He is hoping to be here to cut our barley in three dry days, that could be anytime from this weekend to the end of September!
Kirsteen and I are heading down to the big smoke (London) to the Speciality Food Fair in a couple of weeks time to see what is new and to speak to some of our suppliers, well OK its an excuse for a couple of days away!!
