We will of course have plenty of stock on the trailer, but today we had some difficulty fulfilling some additional sales over and above the orders.
For those who like to hear about the farm …. We have been busy fertilising and spraying. We haven’t got any spring drilling this year but there are always plenty of other jobs to do on the farm .. Ditching, painting and generally trying to keep everything looking tidy.
I expect that many of you will have watched the latest series of Clarkson’s Farm. The programme is extremely entertaining and I recognise so many of the problems …having experienced most of the hurdles of trying to get planning approved etc over of the years just to keep the farm viable. The fixed and variable costs involved in running a farm are mind blowing these days, and cash flow/budgets are often thrown out of the window by events which are totally out of the farmer’s control. However, it is one of the best jobs in the world and it is hugely rewarding to see the crops grow from seeds in the ground .. Until harvest, when the crops are taken to the mills and merchants to feed the country.
Clarkson’s Farm shows the everyday problems that farmers face; It is hilariously funny!.
The H & S is a bit “controversial”, however the Clarkson series points out why so many accidents happen every year on the farm, and quickly reminds us why taking care whilst operating machinery is so important In my opinion, brilliant television.
Wishing you all a perfect week and we hope to see you all again on the 26/3

Gatton Bottom 4th December 2022
Well, it certainly had a chill in the air yesterday!.
Firstly, I would like to thank everyone who helped Steven and myself yesterday. The scorers etc,etc all do an amazing job and Steven and I are immensely grateful to you all.
We also thank the lovely shooters whose kind words and show of appreciation keep us all motivated, especially in the winter.
We hope to see all again at our Christmas Shoot on SUNDAY 18 DECEMBER This will be last open shoot in 2022 !! Where has the year gone?!

We hope to see you all again in two weeks time, but until then, we wish you all a perfect week. Don’t forget to post your Christmas cards and presents early this year, the post is not quite as it used to be! I have been busily writing mine out today, using all the stamps up that will be invalid next year. That will teach me to stock up with a hideous amount of stamps, thinking that they will be the same forever!.
When Steven and I were younger and lived in Suffolk (We farmed in historic and pretty LAVENHAM),we used to rear turkeys for the Christmas market. If we had done the same this year, with the high price of turkeys (due to corn prices and bird flu) … we would have had a very profitable year. The butcher who we used to sell the turkeys to in Suffolk was called “Eat A Lot Butchers” I am not joking, but it seems so funny even saying that name now; I wonder if they are still trading.
Gatton Bottom 20th November 2022
As we left the farm to travel to the shooting ground, we were starting to wonder if we needed our heads examined . They sky was dark grey and it was raining so hard that even with the wiper blades on full speed, they were struggling cope with the torrential rain.

Gatton Bottom 18th September 2022
Firstly, I apologise for the slightly later news and write up about today’s shoot!.
Like many others, I have been watching the tribute to HER MAJESTY on the Eve of her state funeral including the national moment of reflection and one minute silence which was held at 8.00pm.
Anyone who watched the Queen’s eight grandchildren take part in the historic vigil of HM’s coffin yesterday, could not possibly be anything but totally overwhelmed with emotion. The sadness of the actual vigil, together with the incredible respect shown for the Queen by her eight grandchildren, who stood guard around her coffin at Westminster Hall.
I was particularly moved by the courage and dignity that was shown by 18 year old Lady Louise Windsor and her 14 year old brother Viscount Severn, who stood motionless with their heads bowed as members of the public filed past them.
Edward and Sophie’s two children are not normally in the forefront of Royal occasions and I could feel the pain and sadness as well as immense pride that was etched on their parents faces as they watched from the balcony in Westminster Hall. You could clearly see the worry and pain that any parent would feel whilst watching their young children carry out their vigil for their beloved grandmother in front of world; It was an unforgettable moment in history.
On the Eve of HM’s funeral we were blessed with a beautiful Autumn day at *GATTON BOTTOM SHOOTING GROUND*. We saw lots of happy faces as well as some excellent shooting from the winner of the overall HIGH GUN GRAHAM PECK who shot an amazing 98/100.
The Results are as follows …AA CLASS winner GRAHAM PECK (98) followed by two shooters PHIL EASEMAN and BEN HOLLAMBY who both shot a good (95).
Other shooters to mention are BEN WALKER and RICKY DRAPER (94).
JAMES NETHERTON won the A CLASS having shot (92) followed by TOM UPTON (91).
Other shooters to mention are ARRAN HUNTON (90) and PAUL LEHANE (88).
The winner of B CLASS was DAVID SPACKMAN who shot (87) followed MOYÀ CHERWAYKO and DANNY KENT (86).
Other B class shooters to mention are SHAUN SHERWOOD and MICK KENNY (84).
CHRIS COLLINS won C CLASS with a very good (84) and DEAN COLLINS came second having shot (82).
BRUCE THOMPSON shot (80), TAYLOR SMALL (78), ROB SINTON (78) and DAVID GEORGE (76).
The WINNER OF LADY HIGH GUN was AMY EASEMAN shot an excellent 89/100 and only one clay behind was NICKY GREY (88). Well shot to both lovely ladies.
JOINT VETERAN HIGH GUN was KEN UPTON and BEN AYRES who both shot 89/100.
The winner of the JUNIOR CLASS was AARON CHRISTIE (73)
GUY PARKER won A MEMBERS having shot an excellent (92), PETER COCKERELL won the B MEMBERS (75) and BOB BARNES won C MEMBERS 74).
BOB recently raised a considerable amount of money for the wonderful charity CHASE CHILDREN’s HOSPICE and we are happy to learn that our donation to the raffle once again helped towards funding this wonderful charity caring for babies, children and young people with life-limiting conditions and their families. Well done Bob for your commitment and hard work.

Tomorrow after day’s of lying-in-state, the body of the late Queen Elizabeth 11 will begin its final journey as part of a grand state funeral. It will be a day of emotion, pomp and ceremony and I hope that as many of you as possible are able to embrace this monumental occasion. HM ‘s faith and her duty to her people has been immeasurable and after watching the past few days we can now be sure that the future of the monarchy will continue to be in safe hands.
God Save Our King

For all those who follow our farming life….
The good news is that we seem to be getting on well drilling the winter oilseed rape which unfortunately now desperately needs rain. The long, hot summer has made the drilling of oilseed rape very questionable. Without rain in the next couple of weeks the crop will not germinate properly and survive the winter.
We have a 1,000 sq ft storage unit which has become available to rent. Dry and secure. Good access and excellent parking. Email… michellewoodley@me.com

For all the kind shooters who regularly ask Steven and myself how we are progressing with harvesting on the farm; I am pleased to report that all the winter barley and winter oilseed rape has been cut and we are now combining the wheat crop and trying to bring the crop into the barn dry before the weather changes.
This time of the year is always very busy on the farm and it remains extremely busy until the end of October.
I am sorry to say that a fox ate our last chicken who was a chancer and only happy running around the farm during the day rather than staying in her chicken coop. Unfortunately the risk of her freedom came at a cost!. We have decided not to have anymore pet chickens as we get fond of them and to see just a heap of feathers by the pen is upsetting.
We hope to see you all again on the 7 AUGUST at GATTON BOTTOM SHOOTING GROUND. 100 BIRD REG ENGLISH SPORTING (All shooters are welcome).
Until then we hope that you all continue to enjoy the summer sunshine and have a good week.

I hope that all our shooting friends have a wonderful time in Italy shooting the WORLD FITASC CHAMPIONSHIPS which is being held in BOTTO ORVIETO. We are sorry that we will not be joining you all this year but due to trying to book suitable flights at the last minute became problematic. I have heard that the ground is one of the very best shooting grounds in the world, therefore you will have a fabulous time in beautiful Italy.
We will be very busy on the farm combining oilseed rape etc and preparing the land for next year’s crop. So much uncertainty surrounds farming at the moment and the situation in UKRAINE has made it virtually impossible to confidently budget for the next 12 months.

Many have asked when our next shoot will be at COURT FARM. The answer is MARCH and we are looking forward to bringing COURT FARM back into our regular fixtures.
Many of our regular shooters kindly ask about me about the farm. We are still managing to keep busy this winter on the farm, and our new JCB DIGGER has been earning it’s keep…ditching every day. The land is absolutely saturated after the heavy rain, only the ducks and swans are enjoying the deep pond and lake!.
A big thank you to you all for your continued support and kind feedback and we look forward to hopefully seeing you all again on the 23 JANUARY.

Lastly I would just like to say how terribly sad I was to hear about the Italian shooter Christian Ghilli who sadly passed away on the 7/1/22. I believe that Christian was only 18 or 19 years of age.
He won European and World Medals last year. I don’t know what to say except RIP you talented young man. We all pray for Christian’s family and friends and hope that love and support will help you through this unimaginable time of loss.

I am pleased to say that this year’s difficult harvest has nearly finished and all the winter oilseed rape is hopefully, safely in the ground.
The weather for farmers has been atrocious this year and the lack of sunshine has meant that the crop quality has suffered in many incidents.
Once again, farmers including ourselves are seeing trespass and damage from (I have to be politically correct!!) poachers. Gates pulled off their hinges, padlocks and chains cut … then they drive all over our newly drilled crops. Every year this happens to farmers crops and property. I do wonder if this happens in the beautiful Cotswolds … I must find the time to text Clarkson and ask!.
We hope to see you all again next Sunday and thank you for all your support.

We are still keeping busy combining, drilling oilseed rape, cultivating etc etc. It is always so busy on the farm this time of the year… as well as organising our usual clay shoots. Just as we start combining the nights become darker earlier, which is certainly not helpful to arable farmers. The wet weather has made harvesting very difficult for many farmers this year but it has made it ideal for drilling next years crop.
It was lovely to see a few of our regular shooters today who had not been able to shoot for several months/years due to poor health or family commitments.
We thank you for all your support and wish everyone a perfect week.

Court Farm 1st August 2021
Once again we were very lucky with the weather today. It wasn’t until the end of the shoot that the heavens opened!!. Driving home along the A22 towards Blindley Heath the road was so deep in water, that the traffic could barely get through. Cars were taking it in turn to venture through the deep flood water.
One of our farm cottages have been flooded out and our road is like a sea of mud … what a start to August, who would have thought that it is summer!!.
I can honestly say that there is never a dull moment here on the farm.
On Friday I lay in a London hospital with tubes and needles in every part of my body whilst under anaesthetic. I was then blessed with a good nights sleep and then it was straight back to work ready for the shoot today.
A big thank you to the early morning shooters who helped me by choosing and loading up their own cartridges …. Woodley’s Cash and Carry .
One thing for sure .. we will not be harvesting any wheat for a few days!
I think Steven and I are going to diversify into boat building (Kevin don’t you dare say anything ).

The weather forecast for the week is basically wet!!. Thank goodness we haven’t started harvesting yet. This weather would be every farmers nightmare during harvest.
Who has watched Jeremy Clarkson’s Farm which is being shown on Amazon Prime?.
The Grand Tour presenter swaps super cars for agriculture.
Jeremy is helped on the farm by a young man called Kaleb Cooper.
Kaleb is a hard working, skilled and very likeable 21 year old Chipping Norton local who is totally dedicated to farming. He says “Farming for me is not a job, it’s a way of life”.
It would be fair to say that without Kaleb, Clarkson would be in a pickle! This is a wonderful feel good and funny programme (8 Episodes) … Educational, funny and pure entertainment!.
We hope to see you all again next Sunday and thank you for your support.

We hope that you all have a wonderful week and enjoy the glorious sunshine.
Steven and I are feeling a little nervous about the potential thunderstorms and heavy rain that we may see on WEDNESDAY. The last thing that our winter barley crop needs is heavy persistent rain which could flatten the crop … which then causes us lots of problems now that we are so near to harvesting/combining the crop. Farmers never know whether or not they have had a good harvest until their produce is safely in the grain store. Fingers crossed!.
