Trudged thru the mud and slop for two k. Found my quad. Spend two hours laying down in mud and more rain Eventually I managed to get the wheel off and scrape the mud out of the wheel arches and refit the wheel. What a nightmare. Hunting is not always fun n games. It was a huge relief to get my quad back to the shed. Hot shower for me and clean the mud off me. I’ll never forget last night. Relaxing now with bacon eggs and coffee Hopefully tonight no mist or rain so the scanner can work. Last night was the first night I was not able to hunt because of the weather

Rain is suposed to stop at noon. We only had a tiny sprinkle today. Hopefully will dry out the tracks from now on There’s a few foxes still kicking around and pigs. I just found fresh tracks last night a smallish pig walked past my donga His tracks only 40 m away

Great stuff, I reckon the accommodation makes it for Summer hunting.
A bed, shower and a bit of a kitchen sure make easy living.
