Its like I said in my earlier post Neil, you can take the horse to the water, but you can't make it drink, Martin puts his heart and soul into the job of trying to provide activities for young people, but if they would rather(aided and abetted in a lot of cases by their parents) get rat asses in Rhyddings Park at night instead of finding something better to do there is nothing anyone can do about it. Like you said parents have got to educate their children to what is right and what is wrong, but when parents are dropping their kids off at the bottom of Rhyddings Street on Friday night armed with a six pack of Special Brew, whilst they go out on the razzle, your kicking up hill, to say the least, and this does happen, I've seen it with my own eyes. When I was young I used Rhyddings Park nearly every night, that's where I hung out, but I didn't cause any damage and the only time I went in there in winter was with the girlfriend
