Very good point Ken, which I will incorporate into my letter to AMM et al. Thank you.

I was told today that for the fat cat salary Ms Bulbeck earns she only works FOUR dayas a week!! Nice work if you can get it!. Does anyone know if this is accurate?

Great photographs, thank you.

It's been a fiasco from the start. The toilets should never have been closed in the first place given the large numbers of visitors using the car park. They were sacrificed for Sandy Lane toilets so a few dog walkers could go to the loo!

@Brooklyn Bridge why did you bother posting other than to boast you have dual citizenship? Not sure that is a boast actually! I think yours is the most inane post I have read in a long time!

Just think, if we didn't pay such fat cat salaries we would have decent services and public toilets!
