Where are the big rain storms from the Atlantic? We've gotten some westerly winds, finally... going either side. Unless there is some serious rain soon I think the farmers are going to be struggling with their crops. My veg plot would The farmers I talk to here south of you are cooked for this year. No corn. The wheat is not high enough for the harvesters to cut -- and it's pretty hard to feel sorry for a French wheat farmer, let me tell you! (They'll get the losses back from the government or Europe). have been dead this year had it not been for pumping water from the well now and then to keep it alive. Just got the garden pump back from the shop, it had blown a condenser. But the well is dry, no help there. We've also got town water, I notice that the pressure is low and there's a lot of air in the pipes. I've had to water some shrubs and trees just to keep them alive, though. -E |
