Its grim up North / South !

It has rained everyday since Christmas , well very nearly . I thought last winter was the wettest I would ever see but no , this winter has topped even that . The land is beyond saturated . It is a mass of mud . Today we brought all our sheep inside that are having twins several weeks earlier than normal . When a field is too wet for sheep to stand in then it really is wet . At least we are not under water like Somerset ( yes my holiday destination in June )  or near the river Thames . The days are dark and every week sees a new low pressure weather system  moving in on our drenched little island . Its grim !
