Weather

[Veem]

Still raining here, but as I have good waterproof clothing, I got dressed up and went out to pooh pick. Rain turns horse pooh into a mushy mess that takes as twice as long to clear. I feel much better for having gone out to do something in the open air. This weather is due to continue here tomorrow too.

As my boys are considerate enough to poo in one area, sort of (!), I raked it all into a big pile yesterday - ready for making into the next batch of poo bricks/logs - being rained on breaks them up a bit, and adds enough water to make perfect "bricks" (brings a whole new meaning to "shitting bricks" ). But that's another topic entirely!

Mine are not tidy like that and just go wherever they are when they feel the urge - except if they are in the shelter and they very seldom do anything there.

If only I could toss them into the gas tank and burn them that way!

Sorry for the thread drift. I think Bayleaf, I and a few others could keep a Horse Pooh thread quite active, but we shouldn't take over the weather thread, even if it is more interesting!

And how about a chicken poo thread........

Let's not go there... At least you don't have to go round picking up the damned stuff!

Wind's getting up!

Blowing a Diego gale here, 2 power cuts so far.

The wind is gusting very strongly now. We have far too many trees around us for us not to be worried until this has passed.

blowing a gale here and rain hammering down - not quite so cold though.

Gales & rain all day here.
I spent ages getting soaked replanting 'leccy fence piquets in gales so strong it was hard to stand up at times.
Fortunately passed through now for others to enjoy.
