  1. ALL I can say is wow. What a treasure. Nice website as well.

    What if any services do you draw from the Town of Hull? I suspect none! if that is true then you should challenge what they are billing you for. Schools? Police, Fire, Roads, etc. If none then there is no cost of having you 9 miles out to sea on your own independent island.
