There were mozzies throughout which I must admit became more irritating as time progressed. I certainly left with less blood than I started with! Chris |

Re the Mozzies, I had sprayed Jungle Formula on as I left Lincoln with Chris Grimshaw, but my back is looking like a toad! We also had about 4 Greenshank, during the late morning afternoon. Andrew |
