    The botanic gardens and Hesketh park are lovely places in the daylight but as soon as dusk falls they take on a totally different atmosphere.
    Last year I was in Hesketh park with my 11 yr old son, we spent a couple of hours walking around until the sun started to go down, dusk was falling and we had to walk to the other side of the park to where we left the car. About halfway across as the light was fading fast I noticed this chap about 35, alone and walking slowly seemingly on purpose to stay behind us, he looked just wrong from the way he was dressed and held himself (like a homeless jogger skulking ) to the way he persistently appeared behind us getting ever closer in fact my son picked up on this himself and we agreed that this could go bad. We picked up the pace a bit everytime we went around a corner ( by the lake ) and EVENTUALLY completed the longest walk to the exit, the guy was still behind us but stayed in the park, he was so wrong and obviously up to something sinister, as soon as we were sure that he was following us we made a plan that if he approached us and things took a turn that my son would run to the exit while I punched his head in, and it’s only now while writing this that it has occurred to me he may not have been alone.
    I think we all should be grateful that the police patrol these places, when kids get old enough to venture and play out on their own they swarm to these areas Hesketh park play area and toilets attract kids like a magnet, you know where I am going with this.
