BARRY ISLAND IN LOCKDOWN
Can you think of a time in history when the sun is shining and everything is shut on the Island?
Maybe on Christmas Day, but even then local families walk to the beach or drive around for a breath of fresh air!

The fairground was almost ready for the Easter Holidays but now is locked down with no idea when they will open again.
All the amusement arcades are silent and there is such a strange atmosphere which leaves you with a feeling of foreboding.

Even Marcos Cafe, which had seen crowds of people visit particularly since the Gavin and Stacey Christmas Special is empty and locked.
I am sure though many will watch the re-run of all series on TV while they are in lock down. What better way to keep your spirits up!

Along the coast the situation was the same ….
COLD KNAP BARRY, CAR PARK CLOSED,
NO PARKING CONES LINE THE ROADS
When have you ever seen the Knap absolutely empty, not a car nor a person in sight.
You wouldn’t see it in the middle of Winter in a storm let alone on a sunny Spring afternoon.
