My daughter's father (who I am separated from) is taking her to see Fireworks on Saturday November 5th at DPL School. I know she will have a great time as she loves fireworks.


I'd love to see her little face light up with excitement too. Does anyone know if there are any local displays either on Friday 4th or Sunday 6th November? It's a little more tricky this year as Guy Fawks' night actually falls on a Saturday so I'm not sure if there's a demand for displays on any other days.


Thanks, as ever, for any responses.

Although she had asked specifically for events not on the 5th....

Bit left-field Marmite-love (great name) but I'm sure lots of private displays as well as some public ones will be taking place on the Friday, why not take some warm food and drinks, and maybe a few sparklers, somewhere up high - Crystal Palace or Telegraph Hill? - where you have a view over London and watch them all. It can be pretty spectacular.


Hope you find something anyway.

Due to the fireworks display in Southwark Park there are some nearby road closures. My friend lives nearby. They are not allowed to leave or enter their close by car between 4 & 9pm, No visitors, no deliveries, no taxis, no CARS. Its her birthday and she can't have visitors popping round. If anyone needs to arrive or leave you need to give your vehicle details and proof of address to the council prior to the event. The council said you can try and park half a mile away if you arrive in the area after the closures.


Last year their were several nasty altercations with stewards: One lady was trying to collect her distressed young daughter from the train station. Another was not allowed to leave on a mercy dash to elderly relatives etc ..... and someones shopping couldn't be delivered. TOO MUCH FUSS MADE OVER THIS "TICKETED" EVENT.


In contrast the Shine Walk for cancer with thousands of participants had little impact on the area, just some park entrances/ car park closed.

    • I'd reread what you posted and try to summarise.  It just comes across as a rant.
    • Just shows, to me, once proud to be a citizen of UK.. now.. well if we pay/contribute to services - nhs, police, fire etc and folk who have made this there home - no matter what creed or culture.. for the love c of God, can someone  please explain to me.. how we have working royals who like them or not, have tried and continue to actually support and make a change and then we have Andrew.. who just destroys everything.. not just him, or royalty but his own children..  I had great admiration for The Queen - and respect.. as have a huge number of people.. but.. these old traditions where gosh.. live rent free and can’t get chucked out until I believe 2070? From what I scanned..well he has and continues to have it all.. has to go thru what old rules? Etc.  doubt very much he has even kept the upkeep maintenance up on his abode.. and do the shite keeps on pulling up.. What has Andrew done for UK or for that matter since he was 20?? Do please tell me       Totally off topic, before anyone jumps down my throat.. I just do not get how anyone is proud to be British at this point in time. Whoever is in power, seems to be able to help themselves to the public purse with no redress at all - Covid is a great example of lining of pockets.. Millions  given to Rowanda, so one is led to believe, to help with refugee problem and one can’t get a plane load off!  I simply do not get it at all. Use of food banks in UK growing yearly, homeless as well, nhs, police, fire service etc all on their knees..        
    • Have applied the green roof at a number of properties and no issues you are concerned about detected. Have issues with cats defecating in the vicinity, however, they are not selecting the green roof specifically. Use decent compost, slow release fertiliser specific for green roofs, and lay it methodically not leaving blank patches. It looks amazing when cared for and adds value.  
    • Some suggestions for mandatory action might include:- 1. Permit retailers to display facial images on the premises  of previous offenders at their local store. 2. Sound an alert and display images on screens inside the store when the FR flags up a person entering who is on the national database of shoplifters. 3. Physically bar recognised shoplifters from the premises. Should they attempt to force entry then charges should be pressed under aggravated trespass, which  a criminal offence under the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994. 4. Change the law to allow retailers to have enhanced powers of citizens arrest. What would you suggest? The UK seems to have the most lenient policy towards shoplifting , probably because of other demands on the police force. On the plus side, they may have more time for it now that non-crime hate incidents will no longer be investigated. Other countries, such as the USA have much more sever punishment as does Singapore where repeat offenders or aggravated cases can be sentenced to up to 3 years in prison, a fine, or both.
