Monday 6th
October comments: Just a quick update from the islands to let you know that
we’re all well and still here after taking an absolute battering from both wind
and waves today! We knew a storm was on its way, with strong South-easterly
winds forecast, but we didn't quite realise the intensity with which it would
hit the islands. With winds peaking today at gale force 8, the sea has been an
impressive sight and has well and truly cut us off from the mainland. It’s a privilege
to experience nature at its rawest out here, but with winds set to calm
tomorrow hopefully we’ll be seeing you all soon.
