Painting 1,000 Words

The schools have been back for two weeks and yet work still continues on the landscaping at Glasdir. There's a rather odd area of land off the schools' access road that has received black top, presumably to allow passage to the adjacent Galsdir housing estate site car park. The builders have installed a temporary road sign which reads "Road Ahead Closed". This seems superfluous because the area behind the sign is completely landlocked, because there's no dropped kerb to get access in and no vehicles parked to try to leave.

The interesting thing, however, is what's written on the *back* of the road sign. When seen from the school towards Glasdir housing estate, a picture really does paint a thousand words. It reminds us that the estate is long unfinished and may never be.

Further, we understand that the incomplete estate plus the abandoned next phase will result in Denbighshire county council failing to meet its housing targets.

Meanwhile, the posts that appeared alongside the freshly widened and surfaced footpath between the two schools and Y Parc are not for modesty fencing, as first thought, but glass:

You could say that this was putting the Glas into Glasdir. And finally, on the subject of glass, the roof lights were all open on Saturday, suggesting that they're automatically controlled depending upon the ambient temperature... and it was warm on Saturday.
