Can confirm, the last couple of weeks has been a bit of a rollercoaster though thankfully, it looks like we dodged the worst of the weather! @Sawdusty Surfer thanks for the update. Looks like we'll be able to get pegs in with no bother Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I chose that view as it is the only really bad bit I've seen. It is the main entrance to the crew field and so has the largest volume of traffic of any gateway onsite that doesn't benefit from hardstanding. Pretty much everywhere is still solid. 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post deebeedoobee Posted June 13, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 13, 2019 So we had rain over night. It is currently NOT raining in Pilton but looking very overcast. RAM jam jar = 3mm rain fell over night Well sticky stick = no water in well. Mud showing at 3.5 inches soft to wet big dogs paws = Refuses to go out. Must have a bladder the size of a space hopper by now. ground wet will update this afternoon after I’ve dragged the mutt out (by the collar if necessary) and walked the top of the farm. 63 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So 0.5 inches more mud than yesterday and a softer consistency? I need another tent peg video to reassure me @Sawdusty Surfer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big dog sounds very much like my 2 in nice weather they can be in and out all day long but yesterday they went for a walk at 7 and didn't go out again until we dragged them out the door at 17:45 because the weather was bad.

They know things are going to be improving soon - if they stay of the ground for a little while then they won't churn it up. If it was a lost cause I'm sure they'd be straight out and wallowing in the mud. Great sign! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
