How much nicer the flower beds were then now.

They still are!

These are a great set of photos JohnAlan, enjoyed looking at them all. Thank you.

lovely photo but no garry they are not same now they ok but when i was little those flowers and plants were beautiful you werent allowed on the grass as it was like velvet , last time i went in park was about 18 months ago and i was ashamed the grass was bald in parts young kids were playing football on it there was litter and flowers werent nice , there werent any rules of conduct it bothered me , just look at the photo , you will never see it like that again. disrespect is what you call it .

I agree with you totally Jose - nice young boys playing rugby round the flower beds told us 'the man planting the flowers said we can play here' - what can you expect if someone like that lets them play there?
