jolly sarky

Nestled prettily in the English Channel, the island of Sark stands 320 feet high, 3 miles long and roughly 1 mile across. The island is a network of dingly dells and picturesque rocky beaches, and is populated chiefly
 

by rabbits, wildfowl and very quiet people who ride bicycles everywhere, since motorised vehicles are gently but firmly verboten.

Yet ickler is *Little Sark*, a miniscule peninsula connected by a natural bridge. As a child, I remember standing at the end of this peninsula, closing my eyes, and feeling the world loom large around me.
