Not Real Country People
Yesterday, we didn't do very much other than have a riding lesson and make a vague plan to go to the local ploughing contest today. We knew it was on, but we only found out yesterday (from Mrs Farmer) that it also included a little flower and produce type affair, which I would have quite liked to have a nosy at for future reference.
But then I remembered this morning that I had Pilates (which was very hard work; I need to get back into the habit of doing a bit at home as well), which means a late lunch, and then we walked Jo and it didn't seem worth going to something that (Country People) started at 8am.
Instead, we did some gardening: Mike finally got the back lawn mowed for the first time since mid-August, and I did some weeding. Tomorrow, I feel that the chainsaw is on the cards again. Hopefully, we'll get it done, and a nice big stack of dead stuff ready to burn, then have a few dry, windy days and *then* the wind will switch to going up the valley and we can spend a day burning it all.
