Busy Week, roll on the weekend and hail the Fatside!!!

Been some week at the coal face...
Hard to believe it`s the end of May and under a month until the longest day with these cold temperatures of May. Spring has been a long one this year!...

Monday; started real nice with dry weather-great for mowing!,
Tuesday was overcast but dry and had a cold but fun evening cycle with Christian..
Wednesday it got colder again as that biting cold North to North easterly onshore wind returned and it was baltic up on the hill, cut you to the bone!
Thursday it got even colder wind chill with the drizzle and i was in the tractor mowing all day only getting out to refit a thrown drive belt a few times...
Salvation came on Thursday evening toasty in front of the stove and a big glass of wine...
Friday the drizzle gave way to Sea Harr!, it was pea soup up on the hill!, day in the shed doing maintenance...
Some phone pics from the week...

A sign!!!




Some new friends over the fence...


They don`t say much!...


Tuesday heavy fore casted rain moved north over the Forth all day....


Every morning starts with some maintenance on something or other... moneys worth out this filter!...


Wednesday big sky day!...



Stripes...


Easterly tailwind cycle home everyday was nice, loving the Dawes Ultra Galaxy for commuting...


Thursday horrid cold easterly rain!....



Home sweet home...


Friday and freezing two hours mowing Driving Range  in thick Sea Harr then washed grease and Back lap fairway mower...


Most younger generation Greenkeepers will have no idea what this job is unless they work on a budget run course with old kit and no mechanic and grinder, but it helps keep it\s cut....


Jungle Warfare;  Here's what i am always on about, this will have to wait until next week to wash and grease, its the weekend!, time to ride bikes!!!
