A 'Little' Taste of Home

I often get levelled with the challenge that Jersey (the land of my forefathers) is a bit like 'Trumpton'. (Those of you born in the 70's will know what I'm talking about!). Essentially a very small place full of very small people.

Real life made to look like stop-motion miniatures.

I love it.

Enjoy!
