it just struck me, after a more careful look at the wee island yank association's website, that the folk staying here is so community-minded. which i can't praise enough of.
they have, amongst other things:
1. an employment resource that's open to all nationalities
2. a voluntary outreach programme
3. a hospitality programme that anyone regardless of nationality can host visiting american servicemen and women.
the last ranging from home-stay, showing them around the islet, to having a game of golf. and as you's have guessed it, i begged them to put my name on the register. so that i can have a pint and a laugh with visiting serviceperson's at the local.
it's really refreshing hearing stories off one of the blue marble's bestest navy and airforce personnel. and i just can't wait to welcome them.
