I wrote about, and linked to some 'before' pictures, of my local park earlier in this thread and as I was ridiculously pleased to see this picture on the North-East Wales part of the BBC news site I thought I'd share it with you.


Harmony in the park - work on a bandstand, as part of a £500,000 refurbishment of Ponciau Banks Park in Wrexham. New paths, lighting and CCTV are also being installed in time for Christmas, and a skateboard park will open in the spring. Local groups and the council have worked on a long project.

Bob and I, well, I anyway, have been watching and enjoying, the progress of all the renovations whilst on our daily walk. The bandstand was completely wrecked, just a block of very worn stone remained, so this is a real improvement. Except for the odd shaped top. ;D

p.s. Note that lovely blue sky, we have had quite a lot of days like that, cold but bright. Long may they continue.
