A few days away.
An attempt to test out my theories of indirect communication: an island in an archipelago, a tent, no mobile coverage, no laptop. Just me. I'm not quite sure why I feel the need to make it so tough on myself, but somehow it seems necessary. And anyway, a very good friend has kitted me out with - amongst various other things - some excellent gear. And a marvelous guide to camping, Girl Guide style. Thank you Steven Bond.
Back towards the end of next week.
Vale!
