It was the first day of British Summer Time today, well at least the first full day, because of course we lose an hour on the day the clocks change. A brisk walk from my house brings me to a lovely part of the coast, in particular a small area cut off from the rest of the sand by tidal inlets, which we all refer to around here as ‘The Island’. It was an amazing sight today with a completely cloudless sky, completely devoid of any human visitors. How that will change as the summer rolls on, and the sailors uncover their yachts, and the tourists come to ride the ferry.
