It being a nice sunny day and me being in a position to take advantage of this I took myself out for a bracing walk this afternoon. I started off by heading for the riverside, turning inland at Harding’s pits before cutting through to the parkland area which I joined at Seven Sisters (near the Stuart House Hotel for those familiar with King’s Lynn landmarks). I then walked past a little effort on the part of our council to make a trip to the park educational – a series of signboards about the solar system, plus some mosaic work on the same subject (this came first). The Uranus signboard had been vandalised – all that was there was bare wood. This really annoyed me, because it is really a very clever display – the signboards being placed appropriate distances apart to represent the distances between each body. I have pictures of the undamaged stuff as you will see.
I enjoyed my walk, but why do people feel the need to commit acts of vandalism? A whole display that someone put a good deal of thought into has been spoilt by one idiot who cannot leave well alone.
Here as promised are some pictures:
