A possibly worrying report on BBC News today from Norfolk. It would appear that both the European and our own eel population is in rapid decline.
The figure quoted is a decline of 95% since the 1980's.
Perhaps BS (visit to the setts), SW (Swallows, Amazons and ???) or even PD (return through the Sargasso Sea, where the eels spawn and die - although I do not think they were mentioned)will need to be rewritten for the future?
Perhaps, more seriously, no more jellied eels.
