Spittal's Splash Park (try saying THAT when you've had 10 pints LOL)

From The Berwick Advertiser:

PLANS to create a splash park in Spittal at a cost of nearly £200,000 could be dashed unless Berwick Town Council gives its support to the project.
Councillors have been warned that funders SITA Trust, Veolia and Community Spaces, which have already committed about £140,000, are likely to pull out if a decision is not made by the end of September.
Joanne Luther, of Northumberland County CouncilADVERTISEMENT

, revealed the news to members of the town council's environment and regeneration committee.

does that mean the councilwould only need to put in £60,000 ? if thats the case surely they could find that amount or are they wanting the thing for nowt ?

[grumpy]

they only have spare cash if it's for wasting it

mind the railway bridge will look lovely when the lights are switched on but think they're getting the money from somewhere else, no sure

spittals a nice place and it seems the residents do a lot themselfs to improve things so you think the council would be happy to help !!
