Will be for dry cows more than likely as its old grass which if left to go into pit in 2 weeks would deteriorate so chanced it. same story re paddocks not cleaned out in the last round so hopefully we'll get a bit of heat soon to kick on growth and can skip those paddocks

You slow not daring to look her on the eye while widening the arc and speeding slightly. As you increase to a slow jog so does she you get to eye level and decide to go for it. You know you've one chance as she's almost out of the yard. You go for it and are making ground, thinking I have her. Once you reach eye level you know and she knows there can only be one winner. She accelerates away but you being the hero give it one more go, with nothing left in the tank and all you can see is her freeze brand you know you're bet. In one last effort to prove who's master you swing your right leg to land a kick not realising that the yard was scraped yesterday and it hasn't rained for weeks. You miss and land on your ass in the one pile of scutter the scraper missed. Sound about right
