On the morning of 18th July 1995 life on the tiny Caribbean island of Montserrat changed for ever. After 350 years of dormancy the volcano in the Soufriere Hills above the capital Plymouth rumbled awake with devastating consequences. #memoir #volcano #truestory

So sad to hear this news, fingers crossed our beloved RMS will find a kind and understanding new owner.

Always well worth reading, put on the coffee and make yourself comfy 😂

Entertaining, engrossing, informative and just plain good fun! What more can you ask for in a book… and not just one book but FIVE, how fabulous is that?
