Unbelievably, this was my last catch for the session. Just after this, a huge storm front pulled through with strong gusts of wind, and I nearly lost my gazebo. Later, after the rugby, another front pulled through, and I nearly lost my tent due to sparks from our boma fire. Packed up the next morning to go celebrate a great couple of days despite the difficulties in between.
