Timothy Belmont was working up a porcine sweat today at Cullintraw, fourteen acres of land belonging to the National Trust, between Comber and Castle Espie in County Down.
There were a mere six of us today, though we got the task accomplished.
We completed the rush-cutting and made larger stacks.
At lunchtime I handed round a box of mini chocolate-chip muffins. Apart from that little indulgence, I had a banana, clementine, apple and some strawberries; washed down with tea.
After lunch some of us dug a trench at the edge of the field.
The blackberry season is almost upon us! I sampled a few ripe ones in the hedgerows, and they were juicy and sweet.
