Misplaced Late Medieval Hamlet - Day 2 - 4 Hammered - STUNNING GROAT...

[CRUSADER]

Finally we had a good amount of rain on Thursday that somewhat soften the ground although its quickly drying again!
We are still scratching our heads were to go, our 'Plan A' was a deep ploughed ankle breaker. But good to know has they will deep plough the whole farm. (first time in years & includes several Sites like Shot-gun Alley) Something to look forward to either in the Spring or Winter if they level it a bit.
Anyways, that meant this field - Plan B.
Nice any easy to dig for a chance but still pretty warm with little cloud cover, so managed 5 hours 15 mins;

I walked out to start the unusual 'L Shaped' grid we were going to deploy today & first swing I got a Hammered. Normally 'Kiss of Death'.
