The post you are reporting:
Howard, it is doubtless my fault entirely.
Here we are on page 16 and I am sure I have had more than my 'fair' share of input, and no matter how often I say it...the sea gull of happiness swoops down and grabs the sense of what I say from between my very lips.
There is an old brick built mill in or around Dover, it has sat there where it has been for eons with locals passing this way and that amusing themselves by marvelling at and counting the broken windows. Oh, let us pray that a use can be found either for the building of for the site. They cry.
It is much the same for this shelter, but without the hope of renewed usage.
-Surely not all of Dover's young people are beyond the pale?
-It is not plain that those who you neglect are attracted to that which you neglect also?
The fault MUST lie with the adults:parents, councillors, business-people and residents. Blaming children is simply not the attitude of the grown-up.
Refurbish the thing, nice fitted bench, complete glazing, and complete trim. Make a public statement of the importance of this building to the local buil;t environment and welcome it use.
As it stands, the shelter is litterally neither use nor ornament. Unless you are p*ssed-off and want something to mark that fact, be you snooty resident or bolshy teen.
