    Years ago when Rodney Lomax was still kicking around some of my family camped on the island while 2 of us kept the wee boat we came in within the little natural harbour. I remember the seagulls screaming what it sounded like the names of my cousins and what I am sure was the word help. I remember the midgets making a good meal out of me and I remember walking around the island picking up any driftwood for a small fire that night saying the only French I could at the time - je suis une saucisson. Good times seeing the history of the place above water and under water too. A wonderful island.

    Class video why am I only seeing this now. I'm so glad that I got to get over to it before the stupid government or whatever stopped boats going over on health and safety grounds.
