We've just had a spell of mild weather and because I'm not working now I could accept it without feeling guilty but as in former times, such weather would have been abit of a draw-back. In those past days, corn was a large part of the cropping of the croft, and we looked forward to a nice breeze to dry the stooks from the previous nights dew fall, or indeed from damp conditions like rain.

One hardly ever sees grain crops these days; is it becouse of the general change in the weather; or is climate change a part of my vivid imigination. Is any other blogger of this frame of mind ?

The fifties were good years as far as I'm concerned and although the good and much admired friends to the crofter, the clydesdales, were on the way out, and the tractors on the way in, the sense of nostalgia was pretty evident. but the work had to go on and the legacy of the horses clearly remained as the horse impliments were duly adapted. Horse reapers, hay rakes, botato diggers, etc. took on a new look and worked for many years improvised as they now were.
