It was funny, my watch was slow so wasn't in position when I heard it start. I rushed down, behind a concerned security guard and overheard people saying "there's people dancing down there!" I got to the fruit aisle in time to get my kiddie out of the trolley and pop on our noses and have a bit of a dance but there was so many people trying to get a look (with lots also joining in!) that it was difficult to get in the aisle! I assume this was the furthest aisle away from the main action as you could hardly hear the music, but everyone in the know was singing. Good effort!


I took a very short video of the end which I'll email you now.

I'm glad to have helped boost your total. Our evening event at our place for comic relief was a comedy night with local comedienne Charmian Hughes who was previewing her new show, 'The Ten Charmandments' which she will be performing at the Edinburgh festival and the Brighton Festival fringe - it was a great afternoon at Sainsburys and evening at Charmian's show.

    • I completely agree with you - and last night was really terrible where I am. Between midnight and 1am was the worst, where it genuinely felt like a war zone. I had to run out of my house to try and stop a grown man setting them off in open space right by our front doors. In response he went to throw a half lit one at me and then seemed to think better of it. I am so sad at how bad the situation has got here and how selfish people are. Fireworks are bad for the environment and for pets and wildlife, as well as just being unnecessary noise for people too. I have sent an email today to Helen Hayes, which I have done previously on this issue. Would advise anyone to write to your MP to do the same, and to ask them to engage with the debates scheduled for 19 Jan. 
    • And they started long before midnight!
    • First mate - I wondered if I was imagining things at 4.45 this morning . Apparently not .
    • The Dutch are addicted to New Year fireworks and spent €130million this year on them. However,  sales to individuals will be banned as from this year and celebrations will be organised by local and city councils. I have Dutch friends and for them, this can’t come soon enough. However, at least there it’s concentrated  on one night. Here, it’s never ending, any excuse to make a noise is seized upon with gusto. In addition to the annual celebrations, add birthdays, weddings, engagements, divorces, christenings, BBQs, etc etc. I dare say you can funerals to that list as well. Yesterday it started mid-afternoon and just carried on until the early hours. In the past, I’ve been woken up at 4am. Anyyone who doesn’t like it can go hang and you can ignore completely the  effects on people’s animals and wildlife. Don’t hold your breath about anything being done here, however.
