We've had a couple of lovely days of brilliant sunshine. Late yesterday
pm
we got a huge cloudburst and a bit later more sun. This morning dawned
very
bright and now it is grey, dark and hissing down with rain. I really hope
that's not 'it' for this year!

It rained here in ZH for the first time in more than a week last night.

Anyway, we're off to Tresco towards the end of this month so it better
cheer
up!

It looked fine on 1 April 2007

That view of St Martin's must be pretty much opposite the Island Hotel on
Tresco, I think. The lighthouse looks familiar. ;-))


On Round Island?


Yes, that sounds right.

I'm told the hotel
on St Martin's is very good so we must try that one day but the lure of
Tresco is hard to resist. We just love it and this time we're doing a coals
to Newcastle thing and taking them some plants!


They've provided a detailed map to help you locate it. Round Island isn't on
it

How extraordinary not to show the rock with the lighthouse on it!
