The Fire Brigade will accept properly dressed volunteers to help beat the edges of the fire. It needs a strong heart and lungs but is an unforgettable experience.

I've never seen it as dry as this - crows feeding well on the bodies of fallen stock. There's heavy rain forecast for the west, tomorrow, but it could just as easily wizz past, like it did last night. Buried stones are at their easiest to spot now as the turf above them is dead and easy to pull away.
