18th May 2008. The new marina held an open day for the locals to go and have a look at what would result from all the digging and mess that had been going on. I think that they were hoping to be a bit further along with the construction, though, as there wasn't really much to see.
As Paul so eloquently put it, "Call this an open day? There's Jack Shit here".
Apart from a bloke handing out leaflets (who may, indeed, have been called Jack Shit.....I didn't ask him) and the chance of a brew in one of the workers portacabins, it was a poor do. We soon retreated to the nearby Barden Mill Shop and bought some fizzy cola bottles and jelly beans.
Photo shows some of the berths, electric hook up points and, in the distance, the stonework that will become the facilities building.
