Looks like the ban has been lifted.

I’m confused. I thought Carol Hill was the admin for ttol but ruralcarrier ended a previous thread about this subject. Does this mean anyone can end a thread or is ruralcarrier an assistant admin?

Thanks Scubaman. I wasn’t aware of that. Are there any other moderators?

Often I think of myself as a "Stealth Moderator", as many times after I have posted the thread is closed down. 😁


Be Happy! Simply because you deserve to be. 😁

I saw several posts today on other groups about the pond behind Friars Bay draining into the bay. The videos included showed black water flowing in volume into the bay. This may have been the cause of the ban.

I can't read this whole article but apparently Friars Bay water pond outlet was illegally opened yesterday

That is what it sounds like and now it appears swimming at Friars Bay is banned.

Have to wonder about Happy Bay which is adjacent to Friars and it they are safe. Even though it is not mentioned in the news release, the situation would give me pause.

Spent a great week at LTC in Grand Case. Swam everyday in the sea and it was great - no issues.
