Now come on all of you...where is the positive thinking?? We all know that when the morris men start dancing a lovely, balmy, summery, micro climate is created, but only if you BELIEVE !
Regarding the ditches on the old site.. however much I tried to avoid them I always fell in at some point, usually after a few ciders.
The really cold year was 1984. I made a mercy dash home to gather up spare blankets, quilts etc for our camping neighbours.
I'll nip over to Bromyard to examine the field, after our next deluge,due later, and let you know.
Positive thinking...buy some sun tan lotion.
