I'm back on the island. I arrived at 10.05 from a wet, windy and 10 degrees Stansted Airport. It's 29 in the shade at 2pm in Caleta.

Keep your reports going John if you want to - they're much more detailed than mine.

I really do not have the time Stephen, which is why I stopped doing them in the first place.
