Hope it is just such a shock when you see your childhood memories in tatters!!!

But as someone said earlier you've got to crack eggs to make an omlette

I had a walk round the park today and I think it's looking good, all new footpaths, some trees have been removed but new ones have been planted, their doing something at the kids playground but not sure what, I didn't go that far down but I think they are laying that sponge floor stuff.
They have removed the bushes that was dividing the bowling green and the park, its more open space now, probably a good thing nowadays, you never know whats lurking behind the bushes.
They have removed the top path near the bowling green but they have made it into a garden area, should be Ok when its matured and we get a bit of sun to make things grow in it

Made space for disabled parking in the park and according to the notice they have up there is going to be some ornate railings put up around the bowling green.
That parks really tiny now, seemed massive when I were a kid

Had a stroll up Owd Bob's after, aint been up there for years

It sounds good.

Came past today in a car, things look really good from what I could see. It looked like they were tidying the area round the War Memorial so things should be ready for Rememberance Service.

it does look a bit of a mess but like you say it will probably look better when they finish the work.

All looks good to me .. lovely posts at entrance, pedestrian walkway completed ... well done HBC and Parks people .. just A-B over-reacting this time.

The memorial at the corner of Rhyddings Street and Union Road in Ossy was getting a good jet washing by some bloke with a massive tow along pressure washing machine.

Sounds like they are really trying to make things look better this year (and so they should as we have quite a lot of lads fighting....(and dying) all round the world and they should be remembered too.
