This is my first input on this thread. Why do people think it is so unreasonable for people to want to be in an area without kids?


I hope to be a parent in the not too distant future, and when that day comes I'm sure I will be loking for a place where I can take mini Keef and have a pint. However, I will also be hoping that there are places I can get away from the sound of kids on the odd occasion I get a break.


I do think no children areas is an idea which just wouldn't work. However, I can't stand the view that someone who wants to keep a few child free places for grown ups to have a beer in peace, is a child hating git.

This is such a ridiculously over repeated and unneccessarily fractious thread topic.


In short it's like telly. If you don't like reality tv, don't watch it when it's on. If you're strangely in the mood for repeats of Dempsey and Makepeace then slap on a bit of uk gold for half an hour.


We all know what places and what times are prone to lots of bugaboos, and which ones aren't. Something for everyone in this fair townlet and environs of ours.

Reasonable and moderate policies in my view and already on the Manifesto of my newly-formed King Herod Childcare Foundation (motto: Infanticide - A Cure For The World's Ills) .............JUST JOKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️
    • Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
