Visitors from Australia !

We have spent an enjoyable morning showing Australian lowline breeders The Schiller family from Lik Lik Lowlines in Queensland, our stock. It was great to hear positive feedback on our cattle from a fellow breeder with Jacqui, Colin  and Christina commenting favourably on our animals.

The weather is doing its bit to make australian visitors feel at home with the scorching temperatures set to stay . It's been over 30 degrees pretty much daily here now, Not ideal for our grass crop and it puts a second cut in doubt if we don't get some rain soon.  It's one extreme or the other as always, last year it was so wet everyone struggled to get their crops in .this year the late spring put us a good month behind with  growth and now this prolonged unusually hot dry weather is causing difficulties.

 I for one would be happy for a return to the usual uk summer temperatures mid 20deg sounds great to me!
