I heard it was only a 12 month trial? I also heard nothing about earth moving equipment I think that part might be a lie.

Nothing is stated here, Where is the official notification from the council?
I hope this is spurious rumour as will be a big shame to lose such a spot....

I heard wind was being banned from the area too, so no real loss, especially given the date.....

I remember when it was just a shallow sand bank then someone put a tree on it(around 1980) and the bank just kept building so really it's man made anyway.
On a more serious note whats with the prick who blew the reef up at tombstones

I also heard BWS have a top secret project, refine the noise but create the "equalizer", a delta C hybrid, . Less grunt than the kahoona, less flutter than the rally, will turn on a dime and relaunch on the spot.It will only come in pink.
