I'm VERY lucky in that, so far anyway, down here in the south we haven't experienced quite the same amount of rain that the north has. BUT, it is still very wet. Also lucky, that the kind farmer who I rent off, has a field which isn't muddy,boggy or poached to the armpits.
Being mild has been lovely for the fact that my mare is still in a light sheet, and it fits her better than her MW which rucks up her chest fluff! And the fact we still have grass for her - (mowed the lawn again only last week). I've given them no extra hay in this field nor had the need to hard feed. Bonus! BUT, it is really still too mild.
I just don't think we're going to get any frost. I feel quite sad about it. My local wood has bluebells and snowdrops growing, and the garden is sprouting daffodils! Think we're in for a rough ride with this weather, but not in the rough way that it should be!
How are you all managing? Thinking of all those flooded people.
