Famous last words....well done all concerned it looks pretty exciting.Who is going to officiate at the Grand Opening?.
Anybody famous..why not James Hemming from InvictaFM?He would certainly attract the crowds and publicity.

dont know Marek,It will not be me as Im no longer Community.I did have a hand in chosing the design.I see the dragons head will emerge any time now.Pity we could not afford the water coming out of its mouth.We looked at those water fountains at Somerset House fantastic.I could just see children running through cascades of water.Still I dream on.

it really looks interesting, every bit of space being utilised to the full.
bagsy first go.

Apptrox £7,000 per unit so to get a decent display say £28,000.To have a proper water feature which I would dearly love where children run in and out £140,000 at the leastStill I dream on .Im only a Mother ,Grandmother who lives and talks to people.

As well as the great looking play equipment that is being installed, it is nice to see the rat infested shrubbery has gone too.
Well done all those concerned, I dont want to sound too pessimistic but I just hope the young children of Dover get to experience some of the great equipment before it has been totally destroyed by the yob minority.
Is there cameras being installed there as well?

I must admit it did look rather good at the Pencester Show last weekend, even in it's unfinished state. Well done to the designers.
