A moderate Westerly wind at force five and a sea state of four persisted through the day. Visibility remained good, with no precipitation recorded. Temperatures rose to twelve, making it feel quite warm when sheltered from the wind. In the afternoon Joel and Ezra went to Nant, getting started on erecting the mist-nets there. Emma and Steve continued the work on the Lodge, whilst waiting for dry rot treatment to arrive on the boat.

Start by removing everything from the room, cleaning down from the ceiling to the floor, all around the edges, the skirtings, the walls, beds vacuumed and polished along with the drawers etc.

then the bedding put on, curtains out of storage and put up, and wait for Emma to come and polish and make the bed properly!

Then onto the quad for Joel and Ezra, cleaning and scrubbing everything
