Forums Forums Local News New Brighton Seafront Lido plans are scrapped !!!

I agree, there should be a decent bmx/skate park for the youths instead of them just hanging around streets. There is plenty of soft play areas for "kiddies" but not a lot for youths nowadays (never know we might have a tony hawks on wirral).
Anyways my suggestion for Neptune would be to build a new Pier in New Brighton, that would bring tourist here and spend money in other projects aswell. Nearest Piers are Southport and Llandudno (i thinks)and southport one is very busy in the summer. Another added benefit would be the fishing off it as there are a lot of fishermen on wirral (checkout wallasey prom on the w/ends).
What do you thinks peeps?

Hi Frog Eyes. What Bingo! I don't know any oldies that play Bingo.We're nowadays 'recycled teenagers' and having a ball. I went to Bingo once and wild horses would have to drag me to go again.

Some like Bingo, but it is a bit ageist to presume it is typical of older people, such as that stupid road sign showing two elderly people with sticks bent double,to warn drivers to slow down. Most elderly people don't relate to this stereotyping.
It's like thinking all young people are hoodies, yobs, and a nuisance,which is far from the truth.

Lmao!! I know bingo is not for all old folk, ( I have been meself) just like most kids/teens dont like bmx/skate parks, and thats my ponit theres nothink for the kids of today, I was pointing out what's around Wallasey as a whole not just newbrighton..

Well, am gutted. the lido was the main thing that i was looking forward to.

LMAO--Good job that does not happen to some Wiki members. If it happened they would not be able to talk through same, though of course that does not include you Frog Eyes.

How about a nice rose garden for us olds to sit in, get away from the noise of the youngies. Nice little drinkie in peace, lovely

hell are Pearl we get done if yer get the Tini out these days.

Are you old enough to remember the Rose Garden in Earlston Park with the alcoves with wooden seats? We went with my Gran and played about as she had a sit down.The perfume was lovely and it is a memory of happy days. We seemed to get more sunny days just after WW11.

that's lovely paxo i do remember the rose garden in central park.

elsie from the centre and her fella was cort with a bevvy in vale park but just got a tellin off

Wasn't the bevi those two dirty ticket got told of for ye silly bimbo, she got cought hitchin her stockins up

no way dirty old bid

This was the plan all along and anyone who thinks differently is naive. Look how suddenly it was decided that a casino should be built and lo it was allowed because of some obscure wording in the contract. Never mentioned in the original plans.

If there was any real intention of building a swimming pool, (I hate this lido business, very southern), they would have constructed one of a decent size that had an opening roof that could have been used all year around.

Hoping for a pier? Doubt it very much and even if they built one it would more or less just be a jetty of sorts.

This is big business and you will get what they want and there is nothing you we can do about it.

i think something for the 99per cent of good teenages who respect and treat ppl properly would love to have some where to go and enjoy themselves.

it would be nice for the kids round here to have something like rampworks in aintree my 12 year old wouldnt have to travel so far.I worry about him going over there even though he's with his mates,at least he wouldnt have so far to travel.
