If only they had read the report from the Mail [that Julia had published below] they may have a reason for the lower numbers of mussels/muscles.

So, have I got this right, the researchers need to eat calamari and get out to the gym more?

Ah. Funding. Government (I think they mean us, but we were never consulted) funding. Ye cannae beat it.
Passive sampler - Type One , a coffee filter paper in a funnel. A few £million, thank you.
Type Two, one of my beautiful assistant's 5 denier stockings set up in the water current. A few more £million
I suppose that all the effluent that our wondrous water companies have been dumping has nothing to do with mussels' demise or them deciding to swim off to cleaner climes?
