My daughter heard of a house for sale at Easton Bavents and I said you can’t buy anything there Molly, you know they’re all going in the sea. […] But Molly had a calling… [laughs] it sounds poetic. She even has a calling to this day. She just absolutely loves being here. The isolation of it, the remoteness of it, the sound of the waves, the sea, the ever-changing landscape. You see what you have to understand is that when you live on the edge… as perhaps we do… when you live on a cliff top position, and you are facing the sea, that every day you have a different landscape to look at. There’s never one landscape that’s the same. There’s always a different colour, a different texture to the sea: big white waves, there’s rumbling waves that come in and thunder against that hard sea and send spray up into the air…
