At the weekend just after we arrived at our caravan at Bala we found a dead Brown House-moth in the bathroom. A bit later while relaxing in the lounge with a glass of vino, another Brown House-moth buzzed past us. Without a moment's thought, my wife Ann said that I should try to pot it and take it to the dead moth in the bathroom in order to try a bit of
"moth-to-moth resuscitation"

Very amusing indeed - but it makes me wonder whether the proceedure actually worked, or were you both left in a flutter!!

Perhaps they should be renamed the Brown Caravan Moth

Or the 'Brown Caravan Defibrillating Moth'!
