An April week in East and West Cottages with bright sunshine, some cloud but little rain brought delight. A generous, prettily laid tea was laid when we arrived, complete with birthday cake, scones and cream and strawberries with chocolate eggs for the Easter Sunday hunt for the children. Morning sun on the breakfast table in East Cottage, sunsets from West Cottage sitting room; access to the lighthouse with the keepers and the chance for children to activate the foghorn; choughs feeding outside the windows and ponies grazing; warmth and comfort to return to or for those who had some work to do, reading or painting to enjoy, clarinet to practise! The Great Orme and the mountains came and went with the visibility but the sea - calm and rough - was always there to hear and watch in the changing light; porpoises were only glimpsed once (thank you, gulls, for alerting us; one small adder spotted; swallows arrived in small groups and terns in plenty at Cemlyn Bay and diving at full tide in Church Bay and off Llanddwyn;seals basking off Llanddwyn Island; twice the Isle of Man appeared on the horizon at sunset. We criss-crossed the island from Llanddwyn to Llugwy; from South Stack and Porthdafarch to Moel y Don; from Church Bay to North Stack (open studio) and Oriel Ynys Mon (gallery). The coastal path was explored in both directions from "home" on Point Lynas, in sections on Holy Island and towards Carmel Point from Church Bay. Children were free to use the little road from the cottages to Porth Eilian - by bike, scooters (the 2 4 year-olds)or on foot. Adults (some of them)went for runs in the morning; cooking was shared between all and in both cottages; games were played. Discreetly in the background but always friendly and helpful Iona and Robin had provided exactly what I had hoped for: a memorable return to Anglesey (where I spent many childhood years) with 17 of my family (some in another cottage). I hope I shall return, with whomever I can entice (should be easy)to join me. Robin and Iona, beware! And thank you. Ellen Cockburn
