I have something a bit more cheerful to note here today. You might remember, a few months ago, I was moaning about how yet another of my local parks had been boarded up and appeared to be about to be built over. Well, it now looks like my pessimism in that entry was premature. Truth be told, I hadn’t noticed anything being built on that bit of ground for a while, and now I know why: it isn’t being used for housing at all, but is just being remodelled. Passing the park just now, I saw a cool new BMX bike track had been installed and pretty new trees had been planted. It looks like it will be a nice little park to wheel round in a few months. I think that’s great news, and restores my confidence that not every green space is going to be built over.
