Spring is spring, the grass is riz .... er, hang on!

By now, we were expecting to have been reporting on new growth, buds, leaves, etc on the trees. Not a bit of it. After a week of the satirically-named British Summer Time, we still have biting east winds and sub-zero temperatures. The amount of growing that's been done is .... zero.

The sheep are not pleased. They still get a diet of hay, and they're very, very bored with it. Another part of the land was seeded with grass in February, but hasn't produced anything, and we're worried that it may not at all.

Ho hum. Here's hoping for better in a week or two.
