Saturday 2nd June

I left the island today for a few days holiday and some supplies. The wind was pretty stiff and when Ernest and Colin the boatmen came in it looked very rough. When Ernest asked whether I was leaving I replied in the affirmative, and he said 'oh' in a rather concerned and worrying tone. We set off and the seas were pretty lumpy. I began to feel, and look, a bit green. As we moored in Porth Meudwy I thought I would recover but the dinghy trip to the beach was the last straw. As we arrived on dry land I was 'feeding the fish'. For the people on the beach this was hardly the best advert for travel to Enlli and pretty embarrassing for me (the trip back was much better though).
