ponds like that are always dodgy after dark, no one should be wandering there alone at night.

fkn council cleaning this up again? they never maintain these parks properly.

yeah bloody council, they'll blame funding cuts again.

blessing is nice but I'm more curious about what actually happened. police always vague.

still, suspicious timing. hope police do their job properly.

yeah nah, the article just says recovered from pond. could be accident or suicide too…

Jack Morrison2026-06-23T08:50:20.000Z

doesn't take long for ppl to jump to conclusions. let the poor family grieve.

Eva Anderson2026-06-23T09:02:20.000Z
