On today's show I’m speaking with Swen Lorenz again. Swen co-runs the Sark Property Company and as the title of the episode suggests, they have some exciting news about their investment plans and the general future of Sark. I caught up with Swen in London a couple of weeks ago but have been holding back the episode until The Sunday Times had published it's major exclusive article on the same subject a few days ago. In the episode we discuss The Sark Property Company's upcoming cash bid for the Sark estate currently owned by the Barclay family. This should be of interest to you if you’re a Sarkey, an incomer to Sark or indeed just Sark-curious, as I know many of you are. Enjoy the conversation.
