Bill and I escaped to the shepherds shanty at White Rock; an
outside house used by sheep gatherers and shepherds from Port Howard farm on
West Falkland. A white and red wriggly tin house in the middle of nowhere; a diesel generator which Bill wound up (Critter’s
advice was ‘wind like hell’), a pump to fill the tanks from the spring, and a peat
stove for cooking and heating. Fabulous. A weekend away – basic basic, bunk
beds, sleeping bags, bare floor and plenty of mice. But the views.. and the
wildlife…rockhoppers and cormorants everywhere, spectacular cliffs and a
fabulous pebble beach. Treasure !
