Speke and Garston Coastal Reserve

What beautiful weather we've had this weekend - and some of us have been making the most of it. 200 people came to the newly-opened Speke and Garston coastal reserve on Saturday to enjoy the new facilities. There was free food, and lots of fun and games, with a choice of a brisk walk or relaxed stroll around the site. Liverpool Sailing Club were on hand with blow-carting, and the whole event was captured for posterity by the eye-in-the-sky plane, which flew overhead with MBC's intrepid Sarah Wallbank and Lucy Burton on board. It seems there will be more of the same during Mersey Basin Week 2006, so if you haven't visited the reserve yet, that could be your chance.
