WE MUST ASSIST THE COUNCIL

23 February 2005

Congratulations to Councillor Holley and his colleagues. They inherited many problems from their predecessors. Two main issues are the leisure centre and Slip Bridge.

The people of Swansea had put their faith in them and they have not let them down.

They have decided to resurrect the leisure centre - like a phoenix from the ashes.

Now, the bridge that I visited many times as a child, and have walked over every Sunday for the past 15, years will be moved.

I see how the view will open up when it is gone.

I believe we must be realistic and assist the council with this problem by saying goodbye to this old friend and remembering her glory days when thousands walked her span every week.
