I suppose it depends on your definition of 'important'.


If you define it as being one of the greatest authors the country has produced, it ought to be Dickens.

If you define it as someone who was awful, but you liked them, it ought to be Emery.

Wrote a series of historical novels in the 50's. Mostly famous for naval series featuring Hornblower. A better author of naval histories is P O'Brian. Excellent writing, historical accuracy and, as a bonus, an intriguing personal biography involving deceit, divorce and an imagined life.

It would appear, spadetownboy, big time bank blaggers love ED. Michelle Hogg although not deceased,.... "Michelle Hogg, 31, from Woolwich, south-east London, was the first person arrested by Kent police over the ?53m robbery of the Securitas depot in Tonbridge"

former pupil of St John's and St Clement's on North Cross Road.

      In part, it’s largely down to people not actually caring about anyone or anything else apart from their own gratification (btw, there are better ways to get a dopamine fix)

      I totally agree it just seems that it a thing nowadays.  It must be due to how fireworks are sold.

      Fireworks

      If it was limited to a couple of days a year, so we all knew, that would be fine. In the last few years (and it is a recent thing) you get random fireworks going off any time after dusk for half the year. It does more than cause problems for pets and wildlife- it can mean lasting damage and massive expense and hassle for pet owners. All because some get a buzz out of loud bangs.
