Louisa, Jasper and I have just returned from a short break on Hilbre island. Hilbre is a small nature reserve, two miles off the coast of West Kirby, and is cut off from the mainland for 5 hrs out of every twelve.
Louisa, Jasper, myself and some close friends were lucky enough to stay on one of only two private residences on the island - basic, but great fun! The weather was fantastic, which gave rise to some amazing sunsets over the outlying wind farm - augmented by the ash from the Icelandic volcano erruption. Being totally out of contact with the outside world (no electricity, or running water for that matter!) meant we were unaware of the erruption, ash and chaos until we got back to the mainland this weekend! Here are some sunset photos from the 15th and 16th April.
