Picture is of a beach complete with deck chairs, a paddling area and even free donkey rides for children. In the middle of London.Last weekend was the annual Mayor's Newham show in Central Park, which despite being very soggy at times was still successful with over 25000 people attending.
I was in a tent on both days for an hour or so with other Councillors talking to local residents about a wide variety of community issues.
As well as the beach there was music, dancing, sports, live theatre, exhibitions, history, cabaret, arts, crafts, freshly cooked food and a fun fair. Apparently the rain did encourage more people than ever to go inside the marques to have the free medical and health checks on offer. So it is true - every cloud does have a silver lining.
What a shame that you haven't a picture on the complete destruction of the park - makes Glastonbury look good.
ReplyDeleteA massive returfing or re seeding will need to happen - what cost to the Newhm coffers and what cost to the regular users who once again have had the park destroyed in the name of vanity
