ABSOLUTELY QUACKERS

Gazette comment

You could be forgiven for thinking the Hawkinge Community Centre is about to open a watersports centre when you look at the state of the car park.

Shepway Council who own the majority of the centre's car parking area have repeatedly failed to repair the pot holes despite continual badgering by the Parish Council and local residents.

But not everyone is unhappy.

A family of plastic ducks have settled in and are enjoying their new home. With more rain forecast they could well be staying all summer.

Shepway Council are probably  unaware it has become a haven for migrating birds, and if they don't act soon the plastic duck family could shortly be classified as a protected species, and the whole of the car park, could become an area of outstanding natural beauty.

Best get those holes filled in eh! It could save us a lot of hassle.
