Walney Walks 9

A Walk from West Shore Park out to North Scar in Earnse Bay to take a look at all the algae that's been growing on it for the last couple of years.


Earnse Slipway Solution Day BREAKTHROUGH!

After four days of rock and roll down the slipway we finally got a breathrough tonight. Not with Barrow Borough Council - but with the rocks themselves who were far less imovable.


Earnse Slipway Solution Day 3

I turned up for work late today and found the office flooded and folks paddling in it. So I rolled a fag, had a look around, then went back home for lunch. I saw Gary on the way who said that the office floor looked quite reasonable earlier and that I might be able to drive over it.


Earnse Slipway Solution Day 2

It's an odd sensation laying on your back next to your mobility scooter heaving rocks out of the way so you can form a path and hearing passers-by asking each other what you're doing. This is the result of my second day attempting to exert my right to access the beach on Earnse Bay.


Earnse Slipway Solution Day 1

The only solution to the man-made barrier of rocks preventing me from getting back on the beach in time for the National Kitesurfing Championships next month is to clear the newly created obstacle myself. This is Day 1's attempt and already my back is killing me.


Pure Bliss

DISABLED ACCESS DENIED

After a two year wait for repairs that spanned several months I was eager to use the slipway on Earnse Bay to finally get back on the beach in time for the forthcoming kitesufing championships.. and what did I find?.. Access STILL Denied!
