More rain!

The Farmers are now officially piddled off!  The grass isn’t growing sufficiently to put out the stock, and if it was, the land is sodden, so another reason that stock is being held in the farm.  In the meantime, our own pond is rising, and the river is also.

But where is the toadspawn?  Not long ago it was all here.  So has it been swept away, or has it stuck to the weeds.  I fancy it isn’t there, but we will see when it subsides.

It was rising at three inches an hour.

And here it is three feet above normal.
