Nice to see so many familiar faces at Cereals Event today. Even if a few of them were a bit red-faced as the day wore on…!

Everything for a pound… fairplay to sticking to those principles!! bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Delighted to spot that Geoff Sansome is on the birthday honours list. Congrats Geoff, well deserved.

Headed out with the platemeter this morning. It's a year when the average stats don't really tell the story and grass growth here has been a million miles away from the Forage for Knowledge data. Pleased to be averaging circa 50kg/DM a day over the last week. Second cut?!?
