'We've pulled the plug on the island', he said as he sat with us facing The Island, 'but it won't just sink suddenly - it will take a couple of years'. About two weeks ago, a month or two after this announcement, I remarked that we'd not noticed any difference in the level. A wry smile appeared on his face and he said 'You will'.
Just what has caused the antagonism towards the island dwellers we're not sure, but perhaps it's because they have no allocated parking (hardly their fault), or that they are in Gosford council area while we are in Hornsby shire - who knows? There are lots of very talented people living there, and one of them, an artist, has an exhibition, which from all reports, is a stunner and depicts local scenery, showing right now at The Edge Art Space in Brooklyn.
This morning we are going to meet friends for breakfast at the Marina cafe so in the next blog I will be able to give an up to date report on these breakfasts in such a wonderful location.
