The CommuniGate - Solway Shark Watch website on thisisthelake has been a 'winner' says Norman Hammond, watch coordinator.

Last week enquiries came from many areas in the counties just south of London, Belgium, France, Italy and India.

All enquirers showed a great interest in the Shark Watch and many offering to help.

The latest development in this summer's Solway Shark Watch is on the South Walney CWT Reserve, but the site is still closed to the public due to foot-and-mouth restrictions.

The Watch has generated a lot of interest all around the Morecambe Bay area and is now generating information which is helping to understand the whole area much better than in the past.
