Theme Park
Horrible Theme Park delayed
Plans to build a theme park based around the best selling Horrible History books may not come to fruition in South Shields. Author Terry Deary has now offerred first refusal to Sunderland for his 130 million pound scheme, blaming interminable delays in the decision making process.
Well whats the problem there then?
We've been waiting almost a year now for a decision about the new super school (and will probably wait another year for a decision) , we waited over a year for the Council to act on the Trow Quarry issue, we have waited a number of years to get access to Redhead's Landing, I've waited over six months to get five yards of yellow lines painted at Laygate, with still no sign of resolution!
Despite the spin about how improved our Council is, the reality for the ordinary man in the street wanting something done is - "Don't hold your breath!"
