WEDDING ANNOUNCEMENT

THE RISE IN BAR AND
RESTAURANT PRICES

As you will no doubt be aware, the marina has increased prices in both the bar and restaurant. In some cases dramatically. The reasoning behind this has been explained to The Porthole as ‘the general rise in costs from suppliers and that the marina is run as a business and this was a business decision’. The date for the increase was set by Mr. Bilgin as were the new prices. Although the tariff is now in line with many of the establishments in town, it would be a shame if this results in people not enjoying one of the best restaurants around. We have approached the office and, disappointingly, there is nothing that can be done about this. The Porthole says that Cloud 9’s next progressive supper should be well attended!

The Porthole is proud to announce the forthcoming marriage of Pete and Dottie of 'Roseanne'. The big day is set for Saturday April 5th. There will be a small private ceremony on M/Y Rama with friends and family travelling from the UK to join the happy couple. Following this a BBQ and Garden Party is planned in the restaurant Garden to include yottie friends to share the celebrations. Dear Dottie, when's the hen party?
