I only wish we'd got some proper shelter set up by now. It's my fault, really - if only I hadn't bust this stupid arm of mine, rigging up that wooden frame. I'm so sorry, everyone - I hate to be useless. I just hope we can get something sorted by the time the rain hits….

The weather on the island is beginning to deteriorate a little, with drizzle just this afternoon. The crew suspect it won't be long before a proper downpour, which means proper shelter is suddenly an urgent priority. Meanwhile, the storm encircling the island still isn't showing any signs of abating….
