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!

Think you could be crediting them with too much intelligence. They love mud just not rain.

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.

This is the best weather forecast I have EVER read. Ever. This is the stuff of internet legend.

If @Sawdusty Surfer steps up with another tent peg it'll be game over for work here.

Just back from a quick walk round the site with the dog and can confirm it is looking promising

My main thoughts about the weather this week are great sympathy for the splendid folks who are already on site working hard to make sure we can have a nice time in two weeks.

Is deebeedoobee on site?

[Madyaker]

Shit...we’re sinking

Glastocam looks depressing at the moment - the TOR is obscured by gloom and the tracks in front of the pyramid look distinctly wet and muddy. Accuweather 10-day forecast also looks depressing.

The VW T2 is still at the garage being fixed so that may not make it to the farm either.

Sciatica, tent and muddy conditions - time to make a "Muddy" clashfinder listing with bigger gaps between acts and longer sessions at the same stage.

Please no further hyperbole without data to support your claims?

Can you check that the sticky stick definitely doesn't need recalibrated?

Not at all.  While you're not worrying, don't look on the webcam.
