getting darker...

will this be the last week we can do anything after work?  i think i'll be ok for at least another week, given that i don't have the hour's drive anymore!  but the nights are closing in (although it seemed worse today as it was cloudy, had rained all morning...)


anyway, i longlined round the 20 acre and back along the track, was about the last one there and don't think anyone else had done anything


molly was very good, more than happy and didn't play up, just as well as my boot lace came undone half way round the field and she didn't want to stop and eat grass whilst i sorted it out!


forecast for howling gales tomorrow, shame as a hack had been planned with a friend...so hoping the forecast is wrong...

Longlining for 20 acres? That sounds like a long way!! Well done.

Now that I am not working, I no longer have to deal with the "closing in of darkness" this time of year...used to hate it. But you are managing to cope so far. Perhaps you can work something out with your schedule.

Hope the weather forecast is wrong. It would be nice to get that hack in on the weekend.

di, it's called the 20 acre field; i've no idea if it is, but the track goes round the outside of it!

jean, yes, you'll have a better winter than ever before! i COULD go down in daylight, but the working day is 9 - 5 and people will expect me to be here. we'll see....

i may return to doing stuff in the morning!
