Poll: Have you seen vandalism around your area?
Vandals’ repeated attacks on Nawton’s destination playground could force the council to close some of the attractions.
Hamilton’s troubled destination playground is closed once again after more vandalism, with repairs expected to be completed sometime next month.
Have you seen vandalism around your area? Tell us about it in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
