Friary Park Drinking Den

by Andy Holland

After a few years of respite it would appear that the gardens in the High Street are now becoming a gathering point for under age youths from around the area.

The effects of this are none more obvious than when you walk down to the kids play area on a Sunday, where despite tireless efforts made by the local council gardener his hard work has been disturbed and broken glass is in evidence.

There have been sightings of as many as 20 youths heading to the "park tavern" as early as 5pm and not leaving until 11.30/12 midnight.

If you are a resident of the High Street, Fife Police would be intrested to hear of these gatherings as this is the only way they can be stopped by the community team.

If you are one of the people involved, just think how you would feel if people were in your street, drinking, shouting and throwing bottles.
