Horror among the treetops in Sherwood Forest
GOOD grief! Can you believe it? This frightful nightmare has been chosen as our new Sherwood Forest Visitor Centre!
Got that? It has been 'chosen'! People sat round a table and actually said: "Yeah, wow, I like it!"
Just a few miles down the road, at Edwinstowe, you could soon see this monstrosity towering above the trees.
It looks like a still from Terminator 3: Rise Of The Machines.
Or a nuclear explosion made out of old planks.
And yet there are starry-eyed idiots drooling over this 'masterpiece' and actually believing it will 'enhance' our precious historic woodland.
I've got news for you, mate – what we want to see round here is more TREES! Real ones!
Instead we're going to get a 60ft nightmare made out of steel with planks of wood nailed higgledy-piggledy around the outside.
I can only hope that when this tripe goes forward for the final vote that they give the Lottery cash to a more deserving cause.
Like Kenny Rogers The Bon Tempi Busker in Bridge Street.
