It's a right load of old rubbish!
• CONGRATULATIONS to Camden Council for finally opening
the New Swiss Cottage spotts centre – only a couple of
years and a few million pounds over budget.
But I am disappointed that no one has pointed out that every
single public element has been downgraded. For example the football
pitch. In fact it is a single tennis court though it’s
no use for tennis. There’s not enough surrounding space.
There are schools on Eton Avenue with four tennis courts for
just a couple of hundred students, yet one inadequate tennis
court is enough for the whole of NW3.
Returning to the much-vaunted new pool, the boast of having
25 metre lanes shows a deficit of the former amounting to 20
per cent loss of space.
Inside the building there are tier upon tier of fitness bicycles.
Who wants them? Who knows?
I am angry about this whole mess because this is our land, our
money. They could have got more for our money.
To spend £178 million for less is negligence of a high
degree and the results will be obvious to see forever.
