Indoor Market At The Harbour - Green Light
 An Art, Craft and Produce market is to set up stall at Whitstable Harbour. Stuart Heaver of Kentish Trader has permission to convert the existing mobile office buildings on the South Quay. Producers including Godmersham Game and Core Juice have already signed up for the scheme and Bretts have offered sponsorship.
The market will cover everything from local producers to artists and potters, and artist Rob Turner has been asked to make the offices look like fishermans huts.

Sea Street Reopens
At last sea street is open to through traffic again. I wonder how many more times the narrow Whitstable streets will be blocked off by roadworks, gas main replacements and new building works?

Fingers crossed the streets will remain open for the rest of the year and beyond.
