Today was very, very wet! I hope the rain hasn't hindered the work...
Only god knows what'll happen if the summer comes before the contract is finished, because all the children are looking forward to seeing Water World in a brand new era and not in it's good ol' days!

I have no doubt that they'll fall behind, requiring golden time to catch up. It is after all on a strict timeline.

The whole place looks a complete dump in those photos so far as I can tell but hopefully it should be quite nice when finished.

No clue of what the former Gully Gusher area will be used for, but the last time I saw it, it was in a pile of fiberglass & steel, ready to go to an obscure rubbish tip!
They should put an extension in.
Are you looking forward to trying the new slides?

No, no I am not. In fact, I hope the young'un's get a scorned bottom when they slide down those things on a hot summer's day.

There was an interesting discussion on the nearmap website about the quality of the water in the pools at present. :lol:
