Title: Your day in one sentence
Post by: SallyintNorth on January 18, 2020, 01:08:18 am
Inspired by iPM, and also by Rosemary's diary and my utter inability to be as succinct as she, I thought it might be fun to have a thread where we occasionally write one sentence about our day.

Took ages to get tractor and flail-mower hydraulic pressures equalised to enable connection AND it was SO hot in the ISO container store while doing so:  eventually achieved, but it was almost as hot out in the fields.

Its thick and ready to cut , the Old Boys that make my hay are all shielded and like myself going round the bend.
