Connor, Emma, Liz & Steve
It had to happen, the dream could not continue; the Observatory staff are back! On yet another fabulous sunny day Benlli III crossed the Sound bringing back Steve, Emma and Connor for the new season. Accompanying them was Liz James, on her second tour of duty as a volunteer to get Cristin ready for the summer.
The Stanfields did not travel lightly and were laden with food and equipment for the nine months ahead of them on the island. We spent the remainder of the day and the following one squirreling the stocks away in their food storage area and trying to find homes for all the new books and Christmas pressies they have brought back with them.
Now it is all hands to the deck as we spring clean and decorate, where required, the Observatory building in readiness for the arrival of the first visitors in a few weeks time.
Yep, Jim’s still in the ringing hut.
