Flying a Holding Pattern 03-02-06

It’s grim up North, they say…

One lump or two, Vicar?

North pedestrian barriers, in place.

And eastern:

Don’t fall down this bit.

Or this bit.

Signs done on Tuesday 7th. I will probably take delivery of them and cable-tie them on myself to get the job done.

I have a Meeting onsite 8:30 am Wednesday 8th with The Parks Manager,Senior Landscape Architect, Head Engineer, another landscape architectwho helped me draw up the plans… and goodness knows who else. YoursTruly will be pushing to get the park opened asap, of course, but Ican’t promise anything. There is some discontent with re-landscapedsoil levels. The fencing issue still needs to be resolved.

This weekend will still be ’out of bounds,’ esp. Saturday, asthere will still be a guy working there. He will be scraping the copingfree of cement, and fixing the northern end to cure the the nastytruck-stopping terminus.

A bit of galvanizing paint on the metalwork, drain covers on, a good clean… and er… shurely thatsh it eh?

It’s not my call…

A PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT FROM DUNDEECONCRETE.COM:

Do you still have questions about the nature of the universe?

“What about jet-skis? are they allowed the larger park area, even if not in the skatepark itself?”

“What if I carry my car on my shoulder into the park? “

“If I park on double yellow lines along Dudhope Terrace or Lochee Road, will I get a parking ticket?”

These, and all other questions can be answered either by looking at the ’Parks’ section of www.dundeecity.gov.uk

…or perhaps not.

Try some of our informative links on the ’About’ page, they might help.

…or try asking a pal.

THANK YOU,
