If a thing's worth doing...

Sorry to be a party pooper...killjoy...moaning minniebut I am really disappointed by the new "gym" in Acton Park.I was expecting something like what has been provided in North Acton or in Kilburn Park and across Camden...or in Tel Aviv for that matter.. IE proper hard standing with machines you can actually exercise on - thus bringing real health benefits to users.But this is nothing like that: it's on mats in a sea of mud - so all the equipment is already covered in mud. There's no proper cross-trainer or rower or treadmill. Just one bike. Almost no leveraged weights.Compared to the climbing thing next door - which I have only seen in use once - it looks and feels cheap and dirty.Why couldn't it be done properly - or is a feeble imitation of the real thing all Acton deserves?

That is a shame Sara, suggest you raise your concerns with local councillors, cheapo spec?

Typical.  Do you have any photos to post Sara?

A) no photos taken - oops wouldn't know how with phone and don't own camera B) and then wouldn't know how to post.Not a Luddite - merely a bit slow.But there it is in the park near the tennis courts should anyone cleverer than me happen to be passing.
