What a sad sight! :-(

But well done to Mr Ian Leach O** for bringing it to the attention of the public,
so that there hopefully will be things done as promised. And maybe a bit
faster as if people had only complained to the park management. :twisted:

Ja...strange that Park Officials don't notice a vanishing Dam? Maybe they drive too fast! :twisted:

They won't erase these dams on purpose, nana! Both are emergency water for the nearby camps! :yes:

But who knows... O-/

Agreed, it's not like the level suddenly dropped O/ The level was low in July already O/

Why wait for the public to ask questions before there's action :-?
