This is the first time I am alone to wander and explore and do some narration--basically in this video I go over some of the ground covered on the guided tour.The latter was extrememly useful because dangers were pointed out and the shock of the seagull gauntlet--I found I was under far less attack when alone.The fog horn seen in the video really is huge and functions via compressed air on an enormous scale--apparently when the system is tested  warnings are issued for folk to protect their ears and get as far away as possible from being in direct line of the horn..I would have liked to have got a closer view of the Victorian cholera hospital and other buildings but this was not safely possble due to their dangerous condition--I intend reading up more about the island prior to a second visit...
