Bay View Caravan Park

Hey Mike

what's this about the Audit Commission - some may say finally - threatening legal action against jolly old STC?

I understand there was a special, or is it extrordinary, meeting?

Are you sworn to secrecy?

Swanage Blues Festivals

Thanks to everybody who has asked about the future of the blues festivals.

I have on-going problems with my old computer and have been unable to get everything sorted as I usually do.

Yes, the next one is taking place on 3, 4, 5 October, see

Unique Marketing Point?

"Swanage, Dorset, is a small British seaside town which has, like most British seaside towns seen better days, but in Swanage they make a feature of their past."

Grammar School

Wat a novel idea.

Use a closed school as a school!

Sticklands to close.

Sticklands the butcher will apparantly close on August 23rd. How sad.

New Festival?

Thanks to everybody who's asked about the new Local Food and World Music Festival proposed for June 2009, and the new website Swanage Life that will be supporting it.

Plans for both festival and website are temporarily on hold while I raise funds for the existing blues festivals in March and October.

Since each existing blues festival brings £136,000 extra business into town - twice a year and out-of-season - I feel I should work on the survival of these festivals at the moment, rather than embark on new projects.
