I live opposite the lordship lane surgery at the top of the lane by the library and every night for the last week its alarm has gone off for about an hour from about 6.30-7.30. I rang them today in the vain hope they would do something about it but, guess what, it's ringing again.


The police have been but can't do anything about it. Have emailed southwark council but no reply - that was on saturday. Have tried Southwark noise again and they say they might be around in an hour or so. Apparently they have to witness the noise from inside your home!


I am on the point of putting a brick through their window - would have no effect other than to make me feel better.


any ideas?

looks like Southwark council are coming up trumps. Two charming noise abatement blokes have come round and will break in and stop it in an hour! (they have to wait for an hour to allow the keyholders to come apparently)


I wonder if I can help break in...

If that ever happens to anyone again anywhere, you must call Southwark Environmental Health again at the time. Don't leave it for a week. They will write to the place concerned and threaten them with a fine. The breaking in has to be done while the alarm is going off. I have had this problem with house alarms in my street.

    • Missing Cat! 11 months old/ Our friend, Coco, has gone missing. Last seen evening of 31st October near top of Henslowe rd where it meets Underhill Rd in SE22. We know she has started wandering up Friern Rd and further we guess but we imagine she has been spooked by Halloween / Fireworks goings on. She is a grey Siberian mix with some brown stripes down her, very friendly and likes to eat. Please let us know
    • That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring
    • The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.
    • Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end!
