Is This Your Business?

Some locals call it The Lord Mayor's gift to gay men. Recent council homophobia has led to toilet block at entrance of park to be closed down Monday to Friday. During summer nights, the trade can be delicious, especially around the back of the playground. Regular goers will see the same older faces/silhouttes lurking in the shadows, but you can ignore them without fear of reprieve.
Crowd: Basically locals -- from recent high school leavers to your pension card holder.
