Wow, can we now hope that with this extra money rolling in, pavements can be repaired, a makeover for Mayflower park? Maybe an ice rink, more shops not endless cafes. Just walk down East Street: empty shops before the huge demolition,which obliterated heart shop etc it was pleasant and busy, now an empty shell, with the loss of debenhams this council needs to start thinking! No more flats,decent shops better pavements, and Park and Ride.
