Has anyone else heard the fireworks? Nr. Crystal Palace/Goodrich Rd/Thompson Rd area at 10.45 pm. this evening??? they sounded like explosions going off! I can't believe people are so lacking in thought for other people particularly when there are so many children in the area.

I've just heard them and I live just off Red Post Hill, SE24 - my two cats came bounding in running behind the settee.


I feel sorry for people with babies and young children who've just managed to sit down for the night!

I was really struggling to get no one twin off to sleep (teething!) and he had just that SECOND closed his eyes when the bloody things started going off. Was it D College? I'm going to complain. Surely there is some law about loud noise like that after 9.30pm or something?

Indeed. There will also be animals that were scared because of it. But anyway, if you want to let off fireworks, do it as soon as it's dark, and get it over with quickly. It kept on stopping and starting. And it was really really loud in our front bedroom. No 1 baby was very distressed.

There is a law regarding the use of fireworks - their use is banned between 11:00pm and 07:00 am except for Diwali, Guy Fawkes, New Year and Chinese New Year.


Whilst the sound might have annoyed you last night, if it's only a one off thing and they weren't outside of the curfew times then it's worth while having a little perspective on this 'event' - it would be quite mean-spirited to make a complaint about it to the college/authorities etc and will more than likely get you nowhere anyway.

Yes, I am also dead against loud, annoying noises disrupting the peace. Particularly when I'm trying to enjoy a quiet coffee in one of the cafe's around the area. You know the places - where doe eyed parents watch adoringly as their children charge about without hinderance of adult supervision.

Bless.

Of course there was a possibility that 'our kid' might have been woken-up.


What I do is, shut my eyes and remember all the occasions when 'our kid' has woken someone else up.

And then, I try to imagine those other people, all enjoying the fireworks on Saturday night.


Seems to work.

Unlike all the building/diy noise.

I personally believe that the building noise is much worse, at least with fireworks they look pretty.

The fireworks I heard didn't sound like they were coming from dulwich College- agree with OP more like the Goodrich Road are. I thought they were coming from the same party that were playing Michael Jackson non stop til the early hours - not really complaining though as I had quite a lively bash a couple of weeks ago. Was bit disappointed that it didn't make the forum!

I am fine with fireworks but not after certain hours, personally I think 11pm is too late to allow fireworks to go on for. 9pm should be the cut off line, they were bloody loud, and my niece woke up with nightmares because of the fireworks and didn't settle back down until 2am. I really do think 10pm is late for fireworks and I am not tha old either!

      Chicks and ducklings

      By malumbu · Posted

      Hmmm, millions of animals are killed each year to eat in this country.  10,000 animals (maybe many more) reared to be eaten by exotic pets, dissected by students, experimented on by cosmetic and medical companies.  Why is this any different? Unless you have a vegan lifestyle most of us aren't in a position to judge.  I've not eaten meat for years, try not to buy leather and other animal products as much as possible but don't read every label, and have to live with the fact that for every female chick bred to (unaturally) lay eggs for me to eat, there will be male that is likely top be slaughtered, ditto for the cow/milk machines - again unnatural. I wasn't aware that there was this sort of market, but there must be a demand for it and doubt if it is breaking any sort of law. Happy to be proved wrong on anything and everything.

      Food poisoning at Dugard & Daughters - twice!

      By theweekend · Posted

      I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining.  And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend.   So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure.  I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me.

      If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?

      I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy.  We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing.
