Floods of Tears

I don't ever recall our farm being as dry as it is this year. 

There was a report on the radio on Monday that the roads were flooded just two miles up the road from here while we had barely 2mm of rain.  Yesterday they had another 35mm of rain, we had next to nothing and I went home with dust in my hair and ears yet again.  Sometimes is taking the mickey here.

The wind is in the North for some strange reason and it looks as though the rain is following the river.  This is a disaster for our potato crops, they still look OK for now but they are desperate for rainfall, we will yield hundreds of tonnes less than the neighbours' crops that caught the deluge.

Still we have almost finished harvesting the daffodil bulbs, we just have a block left that have been sold to be processed into an Alzheimers drug and then we can do the poeticus varieties.

No other news on the farm, sorry it's so boring.
