Book Launch at Gone Fishing Gallery,
Church Point
Saturday 17 September from 2pm- 5pm Michele and Nathalie's Kitchen "A journey into the world of Couscous, Quiches and Paella"  Click poster to download Tennis Wharf Pontoon Update Installation of the new pontoon and demolition of the deteriorated section of the finger wharf will now commence on 4 September. We are now advised by the contractor it could be up to four days before the work is completed, during which time boat owners will need to make other arrangements for tie up. Council now tells us that we will not be able to park you boat in the shallow near the sea wall because construction of the sea wall is not likely to be completed by then and there will be a boom across the bay.
