Only two weeks left of my summer holidays now - and the weather still hasn’t improved much.
There hasn’t been a lot happened on the farm over the past week due to heavy showers although Tuesday was lovely and we cut more hay.
Unfortunately it was so wet that we couldn’t touch it much with the turner and ended up carrying on with the endless job of floor washing.
My auntie and cousin were staying with us this week, so for a change I went for a walk in the Cairngorms one afternoon with them and to brighten it up a bit we went grass sledging in Aviemore afterwards.
It was great fun. I wish I had a grass sledge, and then I could go sledging in the summer as well as winter!
Since there wasn’t much for me to do on the farm I did a bit of cycling with my mates and we camped out in the garden for a couple of nights – a good laugh!
The hay has dragged on later and later this year and it would usually all be baled long before the Black Isle Show on Thursday. Certainly not the case this year.

Wow, grass sledging sounds fun!!! I've been sledging in the mountains on holiday, but not on grass! I might try that, so thanks for the link. Sorry to hear you've only got two weeks of your holiday left, I know you may start earlier than me, but I've got another four! This weekend me and my dad are going to Hereford to see my family for a big gathering, and I'm going to see all of my cousins, including my cousin from australia, who I haven't seen for AGES!
Ps. I hope the weather gets better for you!
