Is that Longford, looks good & dry

Yes. Good bit of dry land but rock just below the surface. Can get scorched during a dry summer. There is about 2 acres of wet rushy land at the bottom of the hill which has remained that way despite shores and drains put into it.
We leave it as a nature reserve now.

Hasn't been reseeded in about 20 years, would be a rotavator job.

We'd have similar veins of rock beneath the surface in our area... I wonder would a soil mulcher outfit be the best thing for reseeds in such areas..

America has never been at its highest defcon rating. I thing it's reserved for nuclear attack. And from watching documentaries, the highest defcon was during Cuban missile crisis which I presume was defcon 2

I was in an engineering meeting and a guy rang into the boardroom and we took the call on the the speaker phone.. nobody in the room would believe the guy and he was made a right joke of.. American MN company too..

I was working in an office of Fleming construction (we are paying his debts now) in bandon. Watched the TV for about an hour and then back to work.
