Not a great shot, but you get the picture. Just when you thought it was safe to go home after another long day, there is a burst of flames next to the gateway of the next field you want to be in. Some idiot had set fire to a caravan, which was next to a pile of tree cuttings, 10 yards from our pea field and 20 yards from a nearly fit field of wheat! A call was made to Hugh, Pugh, Barney Magrew, Cuthbert, Dibble and Grub. They were there quickly and soon had things under control. We do not seem to be able to have a season without the involvement of our local Fire Brigade. This week will see the bulk of our remaining crop cleared, with a bit left for next week.
