No Island Summer This should’ve been the busiest summer at Barrybados we’ve had in years.
WRITTEN BY LOUIS ROSS
On the back of the Gavin and Stacey Christmas special and the bumper crowds during the holidays I think every trader on Barry Island was expecting a very busy summer.
Investments were made in shop alterations and stock and if Christmas was anything to go by, it was going to be big and busy. After the storms things picked up in March, but so did something else, the virus known as Covid-19. It wasn’t until early March that things started to change in the UK and by the middle of March most places were forced to close and haven’t been open since.
