Update

It has been 4 days since last post. 'Bean' has progressed well - though he is indifferent to the lure but is happy fly 20 metres to the fist.
Weather has been very bad for the last few days strong winds and heavy rain so has distrupped 'Bean's training. Flown him free in the garage last night 10 flights of about 5 metres each. Fed mice - weight steady at 100g with just anklets on. Hopefully the weather will break and wind will drop before first free flight outside this week.
