It just goes to show you can't trust TDC to keep its word about anything, whether it be creating a recreation facility, or keeping the toilets open.  And if they are coining it in, surely they should be putting some of that money back into the Warren, not closing things down.

@A Frame Ka-ching certainly for the council from the lease fees, and most likely for Pinder Fashions too if they can persuade the punters to buy their tat. I have no strong feelings either way as to what kind of recreational facility should be at the Warren, I am merely pointing out what TDC promised back in the day (a volleyball court, I believe), and what they have delivered (more tat).

It doesn't alter the fact that the council originally stated that part of the Warren would be used as a recreational facility for beachgoers, but then I guess it had other ideas.  KA-CHING!

The analogy is perfectly valid, Mrs C; we have been there before.  I am sure you are more than old enough to remember, in 1976, the Labour Chancellor Denis Healey going cap in hand to the IMF begging for a bailout to save the country from bankruptcy.  The conditions of that bailout (as with Greece today) resulted in an emergency budget imposing swingeing cuts in public expenditure and ...

But then the council is saving the salaries and other associated costs of those 11 posts year-on-year, if redundancies don't save money in the long run what's the point? PS Who made you moderator of this forum?

Given that both units are owned by the same retailer I'm not at all surprised.  Nice work by TDC to hand over so much of the Warren to one trader.

"I've had to re-register twice through no choice of my own" - is that your fancy way of saying "I was banned twice because I am a poisonous troll"?

No denial then...?  I rest MY case.
