We opted for for a leisurely start and went on site at 7am. The first thing we noticed was that there were notices posted for the flygrazers to remove their 40 or so ponies within the next week. We can only hope.
We set the same five nets as the previous Sunday, continued until just before midday - part of this time with two nets furled as the areas were particularly hot and still exceeded last time's total. Around half were Blackcaps but any total into 3 figures is none too shabby.
