As a Facebook contributor put it “ What have they done to Bullock island ? I
think it is a maze of pine posts with limited parking what’s your thoughts..” The responses included… “Building Donald Trumps wall; Waiting for
them to grow; It’s to stop the crabs pulling tourists into the lake; Bloody
confusing; Shire must have shares in pine factory”. I could go on with many
more adverse comments.
Light hearted in some ways, I am all for a
joke, but what has been done is past a joke. Let’s look at this from another
perspective. Bullock Island desperately needed an upgrade, not football pitches
please, just a clean-up, the provision of some basic amenities and the road
kept flat and easily accessible for all. Access to the water’s edge for parking
and fishing etc.
