laid 40 Museum Specials baited with a mixture
of peanut butter & oatmeal along the Driveway, to
supplement the 3 lines of longworths already there.
Again we had a- evening meal in the Stella, badly
wanted after the damp & drizzle of the day. We checked
the lines along the Driveway at 9.30 pm, and Cathy & I

Wed, July 10
Up at 7.30 and had the usual B&B Breakfast of
Juice, Cereal, Bacon/Egg/Sausage, Brown Bread, Toast and
Tea or Coffee. We then got on with lifting the
traps and, despite the 3rd day of rain, we
enjoyed it on account of the better trap success.
