I always enjoy watching the sugar beet harvest around Newmans Green.
The mud on the roads is a bit of a pain, although it has not been too bad this year due to the dry weather.
I do like to see the great heaps of sugar beet, waiting for the lorry to transport the crop off to the factory at Bury St Edmunds, the steam from which can be seen from our garden on a clear day. It must be about 12 miles distant, if not more.
This year the beets are stacked on either side of the road leading down to Long Melford and look particularly impressive!
