Tristan News Update
Thursday 19th January: Staff returned to work on Monday this week after the extended Christmas and New Year holiday.
Today is the first fishing day of 2012 and tomorrow MV Edinburgh will arrive from Cape Town.
The Website Manager returned to Tristan aboard MS Island Sky for Christmas which meant the site could not be updated during the five week trip. As he is also Newsletter Editor his priority now is to produce a belated February Newsletter,
which should be posted to Tristan Association members in mid February (see advert below if you want to join).
So website visitors will have to wait a few more days for a normal regular news service to be reinstated
and should note that longer articles and some images are only published in the newsletter and not on the website.

For the latest updates go to the Latest News page or go to the General Site Menu or Site Map for a complete guide
Many attractive stamps - can be bought from the Tristan Post Office

and a Range of Souvenirs available from the Handicraft & Souvenir Shop

Tristan da Cunha

is an active volcanic island with rare wildlife

and home to 262 British Citizens
living in the
world's most isolated settlement of
Edinburgh of the Seven Seas

~far from the madding crowd~
in the South Atlantic Ocean
