After seeing a black cloud destroy two big cover crops we set about extracting revenge ! One gun on the redrilled crop , one in the pen and another on a crossing point the plan had failure written all over it ?, and so it proved to be , the first couple of hours we managed about 40 but it petered out when the black hoard just sat in a belt of high firs and waited out our feeble effort to thin them out ..we retreated ..finishing on about 65 picked with another 10 missing presumed killed in action ..
Plan two ..just two of us after struggling to find guns , one in the high firs , one in the pen
