Or to be more accurate, it wasn’t the shearing that was the biggest job – it was gathering them all first.
In my mind July is always a catchy month, with the majority of the last 10 or 15 years being very much a case of grabbing a bit of silage when you can.
Thank you Jeremy Clarkson and team for making us smile. A brilliant series – educational, emotional and I’m sure opened the eyes of many viewers to the never boring, extreme multi-tasking and financially unstable world of farming.
We have been keeping busy by topping, striving to mix and match cutting and grazing, hay making, preparing for silage and, as ever, fencing.
