Create your own St. Helena
If you are fed up with life in the ‘real world’, or are suffering from stress overload, why not create for yourself a private “St. Helena” in which you can relax for a while?
You could even assign yourself a regular "St. Helena Day", where you just sit in the sun and drink beer (or whatever) all afternoon.
To really get the effect you need to:
Set it all up somewhere where there are no planes flying overhead and you can’t hear any major roads and then you can retire to St. Helena any time you want.

To really get the effect you need to:
- Put Country and Western Music on the stereo
- Erase all but the three worst channels from the TV's tuning memory
- Play a sound effects tape of donkeys braying, mynah birds squabbling and goats bleating
- Install in your eyeline a large photograph of an empty seascape.
