Hurricane Paula & the Sex Pistols

David Fullarton - Wish you were here
So now it's Hurricane Paula. It's becoming personal. We've had Julia (moi) Lisa (my sister-in-law) and now Paula (my niece).

Whilst we wait for the next potential bunch of thrills, we've been getting on with the more wonderful side of island life - which is having a blissful Sunday at Smuggler's Cove  - snorkelling, reading, eating Jerk Chicken rolls, snoozing on the beach loungers and swishing around the bath-temp sea. Then off to Cane Bay Garden -Tortola's equivalent of Sea Point,  for sundowners and supper with friends. Today - after work and other serious stuff - sundowners (Rum & Ting - sort of the Caribbean equivalent of brandy & coke) at 'Peg Legs', which is our local down at Nanny Cay, watching the sunset in all its pink-shimmery glory across Drakes Channel. So all in all, another tough day in paradise.

However my afore-mentioned niece Paula Mills, who is a brilliant graphic artist based in Melbourne   has sent me this awsome link from artist  David Fullarton which I completely LOVE. Not to mention that it also quotes the Sex Pistols "a cheap holiday on other people's misery, I don't wanna holiday in the sun"...
