All forms of collecting quite impossible. 24th Oct, 1942. A fine bracing day, mainly sunny with strong cold SW gale, very unlike the previous days but equally useless for collecting. In forenoon walked very nearly to Greenan & home for lunch. In afternoon walked up the old lead mine, 1/2 mile, above Carrowystick Brook & went up zigzag path to main adit on (N. side of valley) to see if any bats slept there, but found adit deep in water & a small stream flowing out, so returned to afternoon tea at 5 P.M. So ended this day!
