March 20th and finally some heat and warm rain, the grass has been scorched bare by the cold and the frost, absolutely no grass at all, some time before there is any thing for the cows to eat. The first 2 acres of Broad Beans have been reduced to nothing , having looked so well at Christmas time. After the miserable January, sales have now bounced back strongly, Old Winchester stocks now coming under pressure, and Stoney Cross gaining ground all the time. Roll on April.
