With energy levels matching the emotion of the skies, Tabitha, Pete & Josh convened at Beer and Burger prepped for an adventure. Off over yonder to Clitterhouse Farm under rainfall stronger than the tears of English fans 20 hours earlier.

With the sins washed away and meeting fellow Good Gymer Lee suitably prepared for the weather. With quick instruction from Anika, the Clitterhouse Chief, the team got to work. Diving in the garden to collect the problematic snails and slugs destroying the farm plants, vegetables and flowers.

Worthy opponents who used the environment to their advantage hiding under leaves, between stalks and burrowing into the soil when under threat. The designated survivor being the leopard slugs, saved for their efforts in cleaning up and devouring fellow slugs and snails.

With slug buckets full, clothing drenched and a happy chief, next phase begun. Under the protection of the greenhouse water moved from mild to extreme temperatures and quickly shared with the full buckets. As humane as possible.

The journey back for a drink at Beer & Burger begun with the biggest challenge being dodging the puddles quick becoming swimming pools. With everyone and everything well watered, the team had earned the right for a final celebration of the mid summer murders!
