Olive tree water lines
It is certainly dry, this picture shows the direct result of irrigating the olive trees. Nice green grass along the row! A bit of a pain as we now need to mow under the trees only. We haven't cut the remainder of the lawns for a month, the only things growing are weeds and the grass along the rows. To reduce the need for mowing Morag has planted comfrey in between some of the trees. We hope this trial planting will grow and keep the weeds down, as well as looking nice.

The big dry
Summer rain stats are low. Just looking at January today, 25mm rain recorded, average is 70mm for January. But the real surprise for me was the last three Januarys have been 180mm, 200mm and 120mm. That's too much rain for happy olives!
