A week ago the Philippines was hit by a typhoon that decimated the area. The memories of the survivors asking for help from our TV screens I guess moved all of us to help. I discussed a few suggestions with the Administrator and Deputy Chief Islander, who asked me to take this forward on their behalf.
Supported by the positive response from the community, we held fund raising events, which the children did very well guided by teachers and helped by parents. Pensioners and the handicraft centres donated Tristan Crafts for the raffle prizes. We are still collecting and have the sponsored swim by the children still to come.
The crew of mainly Filipinos, were rescued by Captain Clarence and his crew, and brought to Tristan to be cared for by the community. We share a similar fate with them of surviving a natural disaster. I would like to present the prizes for the shooting competitions, and the raffle, with the help of the Acting Chief Islander and thank all who helped with the fund raising.

Wonderful read about love, expectation, and forgiveness! A surprisingly good read from a new author that was a book club read.
And that ending makes you want another book to see what happens next. Let me first start with the cover of this book.
The child could be any readers child, the toy, smile and innocence made my heart sing. It also rings a bell of peace looking at the child playing. It was fantastic reading Moselle and Shiloh's story,both are dealing with their own demon in some sort of way.
