Dog poo bags smeared inside the bankeyfields park and left
Following on from thursday and Fridays posts about glass and dog poo in the park, with more horrific discoveries.
The roundabout/spinning top has had dog poo smeared around it, covering the rope, the bars, the standing plate and the floor around with shit.
A parent in the park then pointed out more poo bags inside the toddler area, that I'd not noticed.
I cleared the dog poo out reported from the other night with a big stick and pushed it towards the bins (sorry it's still there as I don't carry dog poo bags with me) but at least it's out of the park now.
At Wednesday Night's Bankeyfields RA meeting the local PCSO Andy Wooton pointed out that the police were only getting about 9 calls a month for the park, where as other areas see that in one evening, so the police aren't treating the area as priority.
Do we let the park and the area go to the dogs?

Suggestions or thoughts welcome, because I'm at a loss

Seems like some kind of dirty
Seems like some kind of dirty protest. Ban dogs from the area...Period! Then you will not have these problems. Let them crap in their owners, own back yard! You got the dirty beasts, let them crap all over your house and yard! You won't mind, because you love those dirty little critters sooo much. And by the way, why is my council tax going towards paying for "your" pooper bins and dogs crap to be disposed of?. I have to pay the water board to have my crap shipped away? Give me a break, get a gold fish or something less dirty, if you are that insecure that you have to love a dumb dog and not your fellow human beings, mainly your wife or husband or kids!
are you a cat love perchance?
Wow, guest. Is it that time
Wow, guest. Is it that time of the month already? Anyhow, as my kids have now grown up and flown the nest, should I begrudge paying council tax to support your kids education? Why do I have to pay tax for your child benefit?
You do sound very selfish and in my opinion, you should apologise, and stay off the sauce for a while.
Peace be with you.
Dearest *****wit you seem to
Dearest *****wit you seem to imply that I have children, when I do not. I am glad that my taxes and council tax have gone towards YOUR children's education and child benefit. Bring back the dog licencing fee and put it up to £100 a year so as to pay towards cleaning up and disposing the tons of dog crap. Maybe then people would think twice about having a walking,eating shitting machine! Good morning to you Sir!
Dear guest do you share the
Dear guest do you share the same feelings towards working dogs i.e., dogs for the blind, police dogs, sniffer dogs the dogs that are used in combat to find explosives or is your distain just towards family pets. At the end of the day these animals have to empty their bowls like you and I, unfortunately we do not have dog only toilets yet, were our pets can go and read the paper and pick that days horses and until then there is no other alternative than the solution we have now. With regards to the problem that we have on the open space this is a combination of irresponsible dog owners who do not scoop the poop and immature children who think it is fun to empty the dog poo bins and throw the bags around the park.
Ahhh bj-dj, it just goes to
Ahhh bj-dj, it just goes to show you then how dumb most pet dogs are. As for working dogs, these animals serve a purpose and there for should be treated with respect. As for pet dogs, which only exist to pander to their owners whims and wishes and fill the gap in their own love-less lives.
Now if a dog could pick the winning lottery numbers or the results of football matches, then I would consider having one as it would come in handy. I mean, come on, even an octopus can predict the scores in the World Cup. Perhaps the sight of someone taking an octopus for a walk on the open space would raise a smile. Mind you there could be a bit of a mess if it decided to spray its dirty ink everywhere.
Maybe an answer would be for your all your dogs to wear nappies? Then let them wallow in their crap!
Ahh,Guest, sorry for implying
Ahh,Guest, sorry for implying that you had children, although it hardly comes as a surprise, after all, you would need an intimate for that wouldn't you, and I really doubt that there is anyone who has reached that desperate level yet. Many thanks for the contribution towards my own childrens education, it's such a shame that you have no one to share what you consider to be a life with you, perhaps you wouldn't be wallowing in your own misery so much. Incidentally, I wonder how much of my tax you will be using as you reach your old age without anyone to look after you but the health authorities? You know, when you have reached the point of incontinence and are wallowing in your own crap? And you talk about love-less lives? Pffft. Good afternoon to you, and may you find some peace and happiness.
Can I suggest that you dont
Can I suggest that you dont use this site as a way of slagging each other off because that is all you are both doing - get a room!!! This is such a terrible shame for all of the parents that want to take their kiddies down to the park to play! I for one have two children who are now too grown up for the play area but still feel for those who wish to use it. I too have dogs but we dont walk them in or around the park, we tend to walk further afield across the old Focus fields or Bathpool etc, our dogs do poo both around our back yard and whilst out on their walks but you will ALWAYS find attached to both leads full clip on poo bags that are used and disposed of correctly, its just a shame that other dog owners are not as responsible but please do not tar us all with the same brush! Thank you
Thanks guest. Glass I can
Thanks guest.
Glass I can tackle to some degree, or get the kids home and tackle it, but not dog poo. I was actually grateful for the heavy rain this weekend. This incident has really put me off going the park, just for my kids sake.
See the newly uploaded pictures to see what happened on the roundabout.
Anyone know the best thing to use to clean the equipment?
Hey up web monkey I know the
Hey up web monkey I know the council have got a van with a jet wash on it because they used it to clean the mini roundabout a few months ago. A couple of phone calls to the council from residents should prompt a reaction.
Yeah, that might work. I'll
Yeah, that might work.
I'll sound out Andy Edwards. I've checked at dinner time to see if there was any poo left and it looks like it has all gone.
I think what we need for the park is a group of willing people who can come together and act on issues such as cleaning & motivating the rest of the estate to help out and so on.
sorry WM as a park user and
sorry WM as a park user and parent and as much as we enjoyed the tidy estate that was carried out a couple of years ago, much as I would love to help on the park, I don't see why none dog owners or even responsible dog owners should be part of a willing group of people to act on cleaning / motivating the estate - that is what we pay council tax for
Yes you are right we do pay
Yes you are right we do pay our taxes, but if we can get more people to buy into it as a group with passion the thing stands more chance of surviving.
If we let it run it's self and wait for the monthly spot checks from a council worker sitting in their car at the top of John Rhodes Way then things will continue.
