<\/a>This means a little summer holiday for the Dock Walks as well; there will be a walk on 5th September and then we’ll hit the Pause Button for a few weeks until we resume on 3rd October (as you’ll see from the lovely poster – putting one of those “oops I accidentally took a photo” moments to good use!) \u00a0But hopefully, even though I’m away, y’all won’t stop dreaming, hoping and praying for the shape of The Dock and the new community in the Titanic Quarter; as you can see from the last few blogs, things are at a very exciting stage, and we still need all the creative ideas and imagination we can muster!<\/p>\n
