Rain Does not stop play

Despite the continuing heavy showers I put the moth trap on all night last night. Moths aren't really bothered about the rain, especially if its fairly mild, but my Mercury Vapour light is so I set it up in the summerhouse with the window wedged open resigned to the fact that I'ld end up with a summerhouse full of moths, and so it proved!
