It's much cooler today here than yesterday. Plenty of cloud cover, sun and sky obscured. Nice cool breeze. Tonight is our last night here in the tent before returning to our seasonal pitch at Northbrook Farm.
We have pitched our tent right next to the cricket pitch, Findon Cricket Club and so was able to sit out in our relaxers and watch the cricket yesterday afternoon, in between deliveries. The sun was out yesterday though, so it was a little too hot!
On the opposite side of the tent we have a view of the hills, plenty of walking countryside around here with footpaths all around the site, being in the South Downs National Park. There are deer and plenty of rabbits to be seen here plus birds of prey circling over the hills.

The alarm went off at 05:00 for my husband to get up and milk. I had a lie in till 06:15.
It's all go with another batch of silaging. We did about 75 acres last week, then held off mowing anymore till the weather settled. We mowed about another 50 acres yesterday and now my husband is "rowing up" ahead of our son; picking up and chopping the grass with a forage wagon. He drives to the silage pit, uloads and goes for more. Meanwhile our farm worker is buckraking the grass in the pit.
I was at our local supermarket (the wonderful Booths) when it opened. A quiet seven mile drive; I only saw one car and one cyclist on the way, with three times as many on the way back!
I have to get on now and make up lunch boxes, instead of idling on here.

And this shows the mower at work - blink and you'll miss it.
