It's been a cool April, very little warm sun, maybe one of the coolest on record, we won't be hearing about that from RTE though, unless they weave it into some magical tale about extreme weather events.

He makes a very valid point in noting the the MSM is all over of man made climate change when it comes to CO2, but deny that deliberate acts of weather management have any effect whatsoever!

Talking to a couple of wise old farmers today who reckon we are in for a dry summer, it's all to do with oak and ash and where the swans are building their nests.

Aye, learn the tricks young and they'll stay with you forever, thank God. A few years back I was on a hillside with a tanker load of pig slurry when the front mounting to the frame snapped, creating what may be politely described as a dynamic load - a bit like my bowls at the time. Got it home...

Yeeeah! Loved the one I was given to drive as a student, you learn to double de-clutch pretty quick with an unbraked load of silage hooked up behind. Happy days!

Absolute classics both, and good ones will sell for a multiple of their original price nowadays. Will we see the present crop of tractors still running in their mid fifties and even sixties? The electronics will either have given up or be 'unsupported' by that time I should imagine.

We can’t even build one from the Shannon to Dublin or fix those that are under the streets already.

So what shall we do about it?

Liquid sunshine, that's what it is.

Just drove Cork-Dublin. 0C to -5C on the way.

Thankfully the roads are mainly dry at the moment, love the clear nights myself, just gazing into the vastness of the universe is so incredibly humbling, all the politicians should be made to do it regularly, just to remind them of how utterly insignificant they really are.

Since the cold snap started all the sniffles, coughs and colds have departed this household, so bring on the frosts!

Good to hear that we are going to have some wintry weather in winter, but hey, RTE will line up the 'experts' to tell us that it's all the fault of climate change. :rolleyes:

Apparently - Europe is getting sunnier Alongside heat and drought, another key trend from 2022 is that Europe is getting sunnier. Last year, the continent had its highest sunshine duration on record - the places in red and fuschia on this map had hundreds of hours of extra sunshine last year...

Irish rain is wetter, I’d swear it is!

Not that they’d be looking for a government handout at all.
