Gorgeous view! I hope you're all having a great time.

I don't know much about the Channel Islands - is there a mix French and English influence? An indigenous population?

Thanks - we are!

Channel islands are...unique! Part of the UK, sort of, but not in the EU. Came under the British crown with William the Conqueror, and been fought over for years since - strategically important. So yes, mix of French, English and local patois.

It's a very special place - so much variety on such a small island.
